Dumass sports opening

That's SportsJournalists.com...

 

Actually, it was a Soutwest Airlines commercial a few years ago- maybe its a Chicago thing...

 

Your boss:

 

Wow, didn't even know this town had a newspaper. This is pretty funny considering Dumas is my father-in-law's hometown.

 

You going to apply?

 

Loved that TV ad ... especially at the end when the boss says "What a dumbass."

 

I'd get out of the field completely before I'd take a job there - even if it paid more than 50K.

 

Agreed. It is truly a terrible place, though the DQ I stopped at was pretty good on a 90-degree April day.

 

It's on the way to Raton.

 

I am pretty sure it was the first town I ever saw in Texas. I wasn't impressed. We came down through Colorado and cut over on the highway through Raton and into Texas.
I was surprised at the agricultural emphasis in the region, though.

 

That part of Texas (and nearby parts of NM, OK, KS and CO) is a huge wheat-producing region. It's also a big beef feeding and packing region. If you've ever eaten a hamburger, chances are you've eaten something produced in that part of the USA.
