According to the AP, Elko, the very heart of Gibbons' Country, is pushing a new advertising slogan: "Nevada, with Attitude Altitude". [UPDATE: drat those reading glasses! Nonetheless, Elko should really go with "Nevada with Attitude"] I just wanted to put out a few ideas for the ad campaign, in case the city requires my services.
Elko was the site of the infamous "human shields" speech by the Gibster, which the Republicans up there seemed to enjoy. "Patriotic spirits soared," according to press reports.
Elko was also one of the few towns that the Chickenhawk in Chief could campaign in during the 2006 election without being laughed at. (EDFP)
So, here's to Elko: the buckle on the Nevada booby-hatch belt.
And to the city fathers, give me a call if you need any more help with the campaign...
Damn, you made my PTSD come back and that just ain't good. Not since I was feeling so good after making my escape from Elkotraz several months ago. It was traumatic since I left several good people behind who are suffocating up there.
Oh, and it was "Nevada with alTitude" which makes sense if you've been there. It has a very high altitude and I am sure the lack of a healthy oxygen supply for the brain impacts those Bush lovers to a severe degree.

Guess I should get my glasses fixed. Or try to sell Elko a much snazzier slogan.
