such as...the benefit of living on food stamps?

 

You can rent a small house around there for $400.

 

looks like a sub-par Web site....

 

Yeah, you should see the area.

Don't get me wrong, I grew up not too far from there and will always call it home, but it's not the most happening part of the state.

 

MOFNW.

And I like that they mention Paxton twice. Can't say you weren't warned.

 

I think I know what the extra benefits you won't find at other papers are:

You get to go to work every day, not knowing whether they decided to cut your position overnight.

 

The Cadiz paper is small enough that there's no sports coverage if they cut this position.

 

True. But don't put anything past Paxton.

Coming to a Paxton newspaper near you: Letting you make AND report the news.

 

you meant to change that to gatehouse. chains of fail, they are.

 

I've never experienced Gatehouse, so no I didn't mean to change it.

But I don't doubt what you say.
