I went to Monticello once...on the 4th of July.
They have beaches there because of the Tippecanoe River. Every inch of the shoreline is owned and you have to pay to get near it.
Also, Delphi, to the south, is the most racist town I have ever been in.
I believe there are 4 high schools in that county.
To tell the truth, I didn't know they had a local paper anymore.

 

sounds like a winner

 

The county name is White? Holy shit.

 

Anyone heard anything more about this job? I applied and haven't heard anything.

 

How long ago did you apply? I typically wait 2 weeks before I even start wondering about status.

 

It's been about three weeks.

 

Received a call Thursday, but it was filled not too long after that.
