LONDONBERRY, NH
Londonderry is a town in western Rockingham County, New Hampshire, United States. The town is bordered on the north by the city of Manchester and on the east by the town of Derry. The population is ONLY 24,129 at the 2010 census. Trump again is going to these little towns…. :=)
Londonderry lies in an area that was first known as "Nutfield" because of the dense woods with nut trees. The town was settled in 1718 by Scots-Irish settlers, many of whom had left their homes in Londonderry in the Province of Ulster in the north of Ireland, and arrived in Boston in 1718 to start a new life without religious wars and persecution. In 1722, the town was chartered and given the name "Londonderry".
FLORANCE, SC
Florence, SC is located in Florence County, South Carolina, United States. The city is the county seat of the Florence County and the primary city within the Florence metropolitan area. The area forms the core of the historical "Pee Dee" region of South Carolina, which includes the eight counties of northeastern South Carolina, along with sections of southeastern North Carolina. The U.S. Census Bureau estimated the city's population at 37,326.

I get the impression that AC kinda likes The Donald
“Mary K Hamm was one of the two women who instigated the anti women “whatever†reaction to Trump/Megyn.”
Isn’t it sad when a journalist is known for what they ‘started’ rather than doing good reporting? SMH
Yes, Ricky Nelson had a big hit with “Hello Mary Lou” - Gene Pitney wrote the song.
There is a YouTube video of a GP concert and he sings songs he wrote but others had hits with them.
Another GP fun fact....his big hit “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence” was never in the movie of the same name. Excellent song, though written by Burt Bacharach & Hal David.
Seriously Nikos, you outdo yourself each time. I enjoy the geography/local lore education you bring to each post.
Appreciate your work!
LOL! I missed that - it definitely could be good and I, like you, hope they double team him (Trump may just let Ben go after him - he can do it in his low-keyed way)!
Marco will be between The Donald and Jeb! so that might be interesting, too.
Oh - didn’t realize that about the Liberty Valance song - very interesting - thanks for sharing. You must be a big GP fan - you’re a wealth of info on him! :-)
Good morning everyone.
Thanks.
Why thank you! I figure, if Trump is out there, it’s the least I can do. I wonder if any of his people read our threads, because we have some smart people who pretty much are saying the same thing, eg that he needs to knock off the comments about Cruz and Rubio etc other than the issues. He should focus on himself...and the democrats. I think the in fighting among are people only hurts him.
Secondly, he needs to be at the next debate. He stands out among the group...
And lastly, I know things will be better once he gets a couple wins in his pocket...
RE: “Love Is Strange” No, that was Mickey & Sylvia. Ian & Sylvia were an early ‘60’s folk duet.
duet = duo.
Good Morning, nikos1121 and AFT! (All Fore Trump)
I’ve actually been to Londonderry, N.H. ... a half century ago!
Iirc Katey Pavlof and she went to the creep who disinvited Trump because of making comments about Megyn being on period. Which was completely false. KP is part of the Gang of 22 of NRO.
Who is AC?
Tag team! Tag team!
It truly is One of the women before the last FOX debate discussed Trumps withdrawal She made the point that the first thing a student learned in journalism school was to NEVER EVER become part of the story. Said nothing more but it was an obvious put down of MKelly as a journalist
Good morning!
YES, I TIVO’d Morning Joe, (watching now) so I watched Fox’Friends and heard Donald Trump call into Friends.
Totally enjoyable!
Oh, you’re right - Mickey & Sylvia. Don’t know Ian & Sylvia.
#4 - I’m almost certain they were Canadians.
Thanks for these threads!
