    But the good news is, Dodge City isn't far from Cousin Eddie's house. About a two-hour drive. And you can always get on Route 50 and zip on down to Liberal.

    Live in Cimarron. It's a beautiful suburb west of Dodge City. Watch out for the cattle trucks on U.S. 50, though.

    In all fairness, Garden City is far from the gateway to Hell.

    (Lakin is.)

    Second on Cimarron, though. Nice little town if you're going to live near Dodge.

    No, Lakin's parents are from hell.

    "WHY DID YOU RUN A PICTURE AND STORY OF GARDEN CITY?!?? THEY LOST! BUT LAKIN WON AND ALL YOU DID WAS RUN A STORY!!"

    (true story)

    You won't get to Liberal on 50 unless you want to go through Garden City (You want U.S. 56) ;)

    Very similar to my insane coach a few years ago:

    "(Podunk) won its tournament but you put (City the paper is named for) above it and they finished fourth!"

    Since he decided to whine instead of being nice, I didn't tell him he was lower on the page because he didn't turn his stuff in until about 10 minutes before deadline and I had no time to redesign the page :p However two or three people at the paper lived in (Podunk) and I think the word got to him through the grapevine. He hasn't been late since then.
