..... The new hospital is for, you know, Jamestown and the area around it, commonly referred to as a REGION. Omg Fargo's airport is called Hector INTERNATIONAL airport. Super big and important.
I think you might be retarded.

Have you ever been to Sioux Center, Iowa, (Dordt) or Orange City, Iowa (Northwestern) ? Noteworthy in terms of events is the Tulip Festival they have in Orange City every June. One of my daughters graduated from Northwestern. The truth be known, I felt perfectly safe and content having her in Orange City.......the sheriff's name was Andy and the deputy's name was Barney.

The "international" designation is not of Fargo's choosing to make them feel "Super big and important." It is used for any airport that has a customs and immigration office that serves international travel. And your use of the word "retarded" to express your disagreement with someone is, well, ignorant.

The point is, he rips on Jamestown for having some "mentality" because they include the word "regional" in a hospital and airport name. I don't have a problem with Fargo's air port being called Hector International. Honestly, I'm a townie and didn't even know the name of the airport or the hospital. I can't say I've ever heard the proper name for either of them in conversation.
If I had called him a moron, or inbecile, or stupid would you have cared? Probably not, even though those terms can be argued are just as bad.

I am not sure what "inbecile" means, but since you don't seem to get it or don't care I will leave it at that. Trying to explain it to you would be pointless.

The real question is....................why the name-calling at all?

I don't see why this burns you so bad, the Airport is probably designated that via the FAA as it truly is "regional"
another example of trying to be "bigger" is the way Bismarck tries to copy pretty much everything Fargo does...it happens. Fargo tries to copy Minneapolis

I've lived in Jimtown for 47 of my 55 years. I find these recent posts hilarious. We have the worlds largest buffalo and that is all that matters. ;)
