Mayor Doug Ellison of Menora, N.D. had an idea to enhance tourism.
Unfortunately, it wasn't his brightest moment.
His Honor would like to erect a gallows and stage fake hangings.
He doesn't want to actually hang anyone; he would just like to inject some excitement into the town's tourist industry.
Some people find the idea abhorrent, but Mayor Ellison makes these pages because of the insurance liability such a device would cause.
