Now that we have given up on 100% of the business property taxes for the
next 30 years and 80% of the real estate property taxes for the next 30
years, our nice little bedroom community will become the Silicon Valley of
the East!

I wonder how many of the estimated 200 jobs will actually be filled from the
local area--2? Perhaps 3, maybe?

Word has it too that Bill Gates bought 6 tracts of land in the Laurelmor
subdivision between Boone, Wilkesboro, and Blowing Rock. ****, I my just
quit my day job and prostitute myself out as a $10,000.00 a day guide. The
Ginn Group is one of them high falutin' golf/real estate development
companies that are taking the nation by storm. The folks that buy into
Laurelmor can just fly into the place via private airstrip, shop at their
own malls, receive emergency medical attention from their own fire and
rescue dept.--includes helicopters, golf and fish their own streams... and
never even have to associate with white trailer trash such as myself, iffin'
they don't want to. Ain't life grand!

Op --Apparently, the Google folks have already slept with a few of our
finest city council members and county commissioner though :~^ ( --
