Title: South Dakota town for sale
Post by: cbbama99 on July 27, 2011, 07:35:43 PM
If the idea of buying a ranch for the CRS crew doesn't pan out, we could also all go in and buy some property in SD:

And the TWO jails.  Those 10 residents must be pretty rowdy.

I did not know it was possible to own a town.

The story mentions when Kim Basinger bought a town in Georgia a number of years ago. I had forgotten about that. Turns out Kim had to sell.

Talk about a reality show. Innerwebz Forum Buys Pacle. Details? Indoor plumbing? May be a step up from WV (I kid WV). If this happens before football season our first move is electric, broadband, cable, TVs in bar. Ice is huge-- at least until October. Count me in! RTR

I wonder if they have air conditioning?  :D

I like the idea of buying our own town, but it would have to be somewhere in sweet home Alabama for me.  I already own part of a tree down in Lee county.

The rest of that pacle might be for sell in a few more years...

Nice.  I own a branch already.  I think Smitty owns a branch too, so we almost have the foundation in place.

A branch of one of the Toomer's oak trees.  Isn't that where we are going to build this pacle?  I just hope his branch is in the same tree as mine...

I can work from anywhere that has broadband/phone. We could start our own CRIMSON CULT. With the wide range of diverse talents/skilz on the board this plan is probably doable, however silly it may be. There are oilfield/computer tech jobs galore in ND/SD at the moment. If we all chipped in $8000 for the purchase, then resold individual sites to everyone, this (and revenue from the reality show) would start the town coffers. The devil being in the details-- what kind of shape is the town in at present?

Probably couldn't get much for Lee County, what with AU going on probation and all.

We need to go  ahead and make job assignments.

CS for Mayor

I would like to take one of the jails and convert it to a "one bed teaching hospital." I'll run that lil' show.

I will also be in charge of Public Safety Commission. ( fire / ems / police / town clinic).
