    A saloon and two jails...sounds like a good fit. Teacher/student hook-ups will not only be legal, but required.

    Great idea, then you could charge everyone $12.00 a year to live there.

    He wouldn't charge it immediately, he would wait for you to buy a home, start your family and make new friends in the neighborhood. Then one day you receive a certified letter stating that you must pay the $12.00 or he will start foreclosure proceedings on your home, repossess your car and stick you with his attorney fees. That is how them website owners roll.

    It's 46 acres in total -- 12 acres in town and 34 acres around it -- located about 50 miles east of Rapid City, South Dakota.
