Unless the thing is bleeding money via estate and property taxes, I can't see why these knuckleheads would unload this place. Crazy!

Just split it up between the 700+ ranch-hands and let them enjoy it. Or fold that sucker into an irrevocable trust with orders to never sell unless insolvent.

People are dumb.

After I win the lottery, I think I'll buy it and secede from the Union.

Careful, they will label it a "compound", and then they will send in Janet Reno :0
