The term catch 22 is actually derived from a book with that title that came out, i believe, early 70s. so that what does have an etimology.
but here's my question...doesn't the United States find it funny that there are TWO washingtons? I know one is a state and one is a District of Columbia (which, for the record, i still don't understand after taking many American history courses), but couldn't they have come up with a different name? Not that he wasn't a great president and all, but there are so many names in existance and only 50 states. (no disrespect intended). Food for thought.
