Local officials of Normal, Mn. were stunned recently after they plotted the burial lot purchase agreements signed in the last 60 days----The graph has skyrocketed upward as everyone in town has been eager to buy a lot for themselves and their friends also, so they all can be a part of the unique historic treasure that was recently added to Historic Landmark status by the national officialdom....
There has been some concern on the part of more conservative citizens that the records have shown that folks of the more speculative bent have bought up dozens of sites for their investment purposes and it seems they have hoped to create quite a speculative secondary market on these prized sites where future folks will be visiting in droves.
One local resident and senior citizen, Billy Bob, was quoted yesterday on the circuslike atmosphere surrounding the site speculation: "Shucks, I spose I lived a regular life, mostly just fishing and whisky for pastimes, but now I can be famous...well...folks from all over the globe will come to see me....what could be better...fame at last..."
Stay tuned as I cover this story.
