LAX? Sure, the LA is Los Angeles. So what's the X?

Why does Chicago O'Hare International Airport have ORD as its three-letter code? What's with the GEG designation for the airport in Spokane, Wash.? Do they make bakery products at the airport that serves the residents of St. Petersburg and Clearwater, Fla., given that its code is PIE? Does Portland, Ore., have a hidden letter in its name, given that its airport code has the letter X in it?
