2. HAHA...yeah, you get to own the people too...
But you might be surprised how many towns get sold on ebay...I have actually been through Cornudas. Hell, if I had piles of cash lying around, I might bid on it...be kinda cool huh? :D

I mean, how many people can truthfully say "This is MY town!"?

5. Just a stop
on the way from El Paso to Carlsbad, New Mexico. Probably the only gas station for 50 miles. Some would like it, but a tough life. Hour trip to school each way for the kids. Hot, and dusty all the time.

6. Kinda different than the GWB method
Buy land in the middle of Texas, build a ranch, and a phony town around it.

Hey, had to throw in the shrub slam. Okay, back to the thread.
