Probably but it serves like the town square for many older and retired folks...it is called a “community”, an antiquated idea some in this day and age might not recognize...

Internet out here is dialup unless you have $75 or $80 a month to spend on broadband-which most of us do not have in these hard times-rural areas in this part of Texas that depend on commuters and snowbird winter tourism have been hard hit by Obama’s insane job killing policies.

The PO out here isn’t even in a “community”-it is at the intersection of a farm road and the nearest state highway, in an area where there are maybe 20 residences and 8 business within two miles-what a shining example of convenience and wise federal spending.

I recognize it, but a diner or general store or even barbershop can serve the same purpose and actually make money at the same time.
