Tightwad



About eight miles from my house, located on 7 highway between Clinton and Racket, there is a small town (population 63) called Tightwad.  I've heard of it all my life so it doesn't seem strange to me, but I've noticed a lot of people seem to find the name amusing so I'm mentioning it. 

Tightwad Fire Department
This little local fire department has an excellent reputation.  And I'm not just saying that because these are the folks who will show up if I do something stupid and set the world on fire.
