You'll like Linton (tm)

Why might one like Linton?
Here are some reasons...

1) It's tough to get lost:
On a drive down the main street, you can go to your bank, your gym, the grocery store, the movie theatre, wal-mart, the laundromat, church, the chinese take out place, the tasty mexican place, and the bureau of motor vehicles.

2) Everything you need is at walmart
Well, almost everything. You can get a six pack of beer and a gun. But, you can't get hard liquor or a washer and dryer, go figure!

3) The Bureau of Motor Vehicles
You need a bank statement to get an Indiana license, but you need an Indiana license to get a bank account.

4) Need a vehicle? Go for a drive.
On the side of the road, you can buy a car, mini-van, van, tractor, even a tractor trailer.

5) The wildlife.
The bird feeder attracts many varieties of birds and bunnies snack on the seeds that fall to the ground. Although, beware of the danger. Birds have flown more than once into the kitchen windows and sliding doors in the dining room.

6) We can still play poker.
The only difference is that what used to be a 5 minute walk through campus is now an hour drive to bloomington....and it costs money!

7) The Fame!
All you need to be known in town is your name on the church sign and people know you.

8) Country life
One phone company won't hook up a line to your street address because they believe you should have a rural route address. geesh, i bet they think we called them on a tin can with a string....

love from linton,
jake, eh
