This fridge magnet reminds me of a game that my parents and teachers quizzed me with a lot when I was younger – it’s called “odd one out”. The game requires circling the one thing from a group that doesn’t belong in the particular group and giving a reason for it.
While it’s very obvious which of these four cities is the odd one out here, and I could think of quite a few reasons to justify my answer, I couldn’t think of a commonality to justify the inclusion of Fargo, N. Dakota in the mix with European mega cities. (Nor do I know why this has landed on my workplace fridge in the state of Washington.)
Dumbfounded, I poked around the Internet to find a quirky (much like our CMD blog) souvenir e-store for the city of Fargo.
One of these things is not like the others (I can hear that tune from Sesame Street running through my head). You can find it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6b0ftfKFEJg

Nice! Now we can all ponder the magnet as we glance at our own respective refrigerators.
