The US-Canadian border
I should note btw that about two years ago I did visit one of those funny little border towns, Darby Falls in Vermont where the border runs straight through the town. Interesting little spot though I felt bad for the town's residents who then had to deal with all the US bullcrap in immigration after 9/11.
