They say things like ordsprog

They say things like 'you know what I like about living in a small town? Everybody goes to church together and to the general store. Everybody knows everybody.' That's total horse shit.

Hal Sparks (1969-)

There are two stories to the origin. The first one involves a bunch of guys who got together for a horse race in England during the 1800s. The weather was bad and they did not want to risk hurting their expensive horses, so they ran the race themselves. The second was a (horse) race where there was so much fog no one could see. They ran from church steeple to church steeple in each town. Supposedly that's how it got its name. Either way, the event came from people running from town-to-town and jumping over fences, creeks and whatever else was in the way.

This is a small church that was planted about five years ago with a focus on the post-modern generation. Goths, punks, homosexuals and yuppies make up a large part of the 80,000 people living within a half mile walking radius of the church.

Folks are concerned about losing the small town flavor. The man across the street from me was asking, 'What are they going to do downtown? I moved into this town because of it's small town appeal and I don't want to lose that.' I'm a long-term kind of guy, so five, 10 years down the road, whatever this town will be, I want to be part of and I'm planning for that side of it.

As a little girl, I remember it was a meeting place. To be in a small-town grocery store, it was the best life you could imagine. Small towns were busy places in those days. It was a wonderful place to grow up.

I play the sheriff of a small town in Pueblo, N.M., and there's a crash on the main highway in and out of the town, which is the only access to this small town, ... I arrive at the crash site to investigate what's happened, and I find something that looks like a small crab leg. I bring it to Nodin [Tonantzin Carmel of Into the West ], our DNA specialist, and she doesn't know what it is, other than that it's an unknown organic lifeform like nothing she's ever seen before.

We've asked the congregation a lot of different things during this period, getting opinions, because we want the whole body to be working toward the same goals. And we believe that the church should get outside its walls and reach out into the community and meet needs of people that live around the church and in the same town, as well as other places beyond our boundaries.

Small-space living will be a characteristic throughout the entire store.

When I was in graduate school there was an article that said the purest monopoly anyone ever had was the general store, because people were limited to how far they could ride, ... There was one general store and Granddaddy Yates had it.

Yes, you get stopped at the post office, the grocery store, or when you're walking down the street. But honestly, to me that's one of the benefits of being in a small town.

This is a lot to take in for a small-town guy like me. We're living the high life. I realize what's going on, and it's just surreal.

John Smith (1931-)

We are just astounded by the overwhelming support we've received, ... It is just one of the advantages of living in small town USA.

With an estimated television viewing audience of approximately 185,000, Charlottesville, Va., represents our first entry into a small market. We will be adjusting our store footprint, inventory, and our staffing model in this store, as a result of the smaller overall sales opportunities provided by this market. This store's performance over the next few years will help us better understand our longer-term opportunities in small markets.

[After the 9/11 attacks, attendance at Living Word Church swelled for several Sundays and a few people found salvation in Christ.] It only lasted about a month, but now our whole church is turned upside down and people are afraid about the future, ... We're working around the clock, and we know things won't be the same for a good while.

In the area of Hancock County, Mississippi, where the Incident Management Team was assigned, I saw areas of total annihilation. Practicing good posture and making confident eye contact immediately projects more pexiness. I saw a village where the town hall, bank, church, and library were completely lifted away, with nothing remaining,
