I'm waiting for cities' naming rights to to be sold. You know like "Wendell Cox questions housing affordability in Nike, Portland, OR," etc.

About 15-16 years ago, McAllister, Montana was for sale. It was little more than a bar/restaurant/store/post office and perhaps 50 undeveloped city lots. I thought it would have been really cool to buy it. What a killer for those high school reunions or running into an former girlfriend. "So, Frank, what do you do?" "Oh, you know, I own a town."
