Mayor, Council Woos Acme

MUDCAT FALLS -- In a rare instance of bipartisan cooperation, Mayor Archie Alabaster and the entire city council, including Sorrell Needlemensch, have joined forces to court Acme Pyrotechnics to have their new manufacturing facility built in the new Tornado Alley Industrial Park, dispite the most abysmal safety record in the industry.

Located 1200 yards from Charles Dickens Elementary School, concerns over the delivery and processing of chemicals in the production of explosives have been largely ignored.

Look, you want jobs so people can eat, you have to make certain accommodations.

"Acme would be a solid anchor in our new industrial belt and a real step forward in the regional economic development," said Mayor Alabaster.
