I just read something awesome, which I will leave here without too much discussion. An 84-year old lady is the only resident of America’s smallest town. She is the mayor and town clerk and secretary, the only voter and taxpayer, and her taxes maintain the three lampposts and running water for the only business in town, her little tavern. It’s such a cool story. Worth a read if you have time.
