I don't mind it but I will be voting no next month when the elections come up to be wet or not, we have been dry for ever and I plan to keep it that way.

Hey, with that third stop light you can afford to be a little wet now. Any more and you're screwed though.

"After nearly 30 minutes of debate among residents, the Village Board voted 6-0 on Dec. 6 to approve the stop signs, despite complaints from a handful of residents that the signs are ugly and unnecessary at the quiet corner."

Also,

"The debate over the Central Avenue stoplight devolved into a shouting match between one of two advocates to remove the light and a former councilman during Tuesday’s Town Council meeting and in the hallway following the meeting."

Don't mess with signs and lights.

Yes but it's being remodeled.

Four gun stores, two of them are the two hard ware stores one is a also a mechanics shop the other is a farmer.
Two grocery stores
Walmart not a super one
Roughly a dozen churches
The post office is for the entire county
Four gas stations

And of course I want it to stay dry the second a town goes wet it gets more run down more dwis and more alcoholics and they are bad enough as it is. I love my beer but what's so hard about driving 40 miles to get it

This is the kind of thing that only somebody living in a dry town would think.

The rest of the country manages to exist without being completely crippled by alcoholism and having its roads choked with piles of DWI related accidents and burning corpses, so why would your little poo poo burg be any different? Oh, because it's in the protestant south, right.

Most protestants are religious because they have no self control and need the fear of God to keep them from raping and killing everything in sight, hence why their county must remain dry

17,526 last count

For country dinners we have a few. Just a bite, cheryls and southern rose. two amazing Mexican food places but if you don't speak Spanish you have to order off of the picture menu. Handful of places owned by Mennonites good food but not a lot of spice to it.

As for fast food we just got a domino's but we also have sonic, Mc Donalds, pizza Hut and of course the dairy queen

Move? No I honestly like it here my fiancé's family is all here, good work in the oil field, really decent people.

Travel and experience things? Hell yes there's tons of places I want to go and do. My parents were all in the service so at the very least I want to go back and see the things I did as a kid but now as an adult so that I can experience it better.

Also not protestant most of the town is largely Hispanic so very catholic and the rest are Mennonites, there's a few more types of course.

As for me I guess I'm agnostic?

No traffic lights either, obviously. No cops as well.

Lucky bastard, we don't have a walmart. Just a single grocery store that imposes a harsh monopoly on food in town and jacks up the prices just enough to make some extra money, but not enough to make everyone do their shopping at the larger town 30 minutes away.
