DISH CITY LIMIT

This week, Clark, a town in North Texas, changed its name to DISH CITY, to take advantage of an offer from Dish Network for free satellite TV service for the community (for ten years - worth about $4500 per home).

Some have criticized this move, calling the town sellouts.

Other cities (towns, actually) have apparently flirted with name changes over the years for commercial purposes. But heck, when they sell naming rights to stadii all over the country, why not?

In fact, I think our own Spanish Oaks community here should become BMW, Jaguar or Lexus, Texas (nice ring, huh?)
