North Dakota, radio talk show host

 

Gosh, I almost feel bad writing about this one.  The scope of the problem here is arguably not that great.  Yet, I cannot let this one pass.

The power of Christ commands me, I guess (Happy Easter, everyone).

The other day, I was listening to the country’s second most popular radio talk show host.  He was jumpin’ up and down about North Dakota’s recent oil drilling-driven economic boom.  He was interviewing some businessman from up there, and the guy was telling the host, and the rest of us, about how much money folks could make if they went to North Dakota and got a job with his company.  Host asked guy, “well, how much?”  Guy responded:

“The average salary is 60,000 a year.  Of course, some are higher and some are lower.”

Thanks ever so much for clearing that up.
