It seems that they honor founding fathers or have a number of places named by people with zero imagination. I like seeing places with amusing or weird names. What's with the Clintons? Did Bill make that much of an impression, or (please, no!) something to do with Monica's service?

In Texas we have many names that are mispronounced, based on their Spanish origin. San Antonio in Bexar County (pronounced Bear), and there is a town called Mexia (pronounced Mahaia), and some that are pronounced by the locals different from what they are spelled. For example the Pedernales River is pronounced by local Texans as the Perdenales River. Hmmmmm.

We have a Madison in Limestone County. It's a nondescript place.

Franklin, Pennsylvania, is a wonderful piece of small-town America.
