PREMIUM PROPERTY?.
I was enjoying my bowl of Cheerios the
other day when I suddenly started to wonder
what happened to my land? You see back in the
50's my favorite radio serial was "Challenge Of
The Yukon." It was about a Canadian Mountie
Sgt. Preston and his dog King. The sponsor
Quaker Oats, decided to capitalize on the show's
popularity by offering land in the Yukon to people
who bought their product. The company bought
just over 19 acres of land near Dawson City, Canada
and divided the property into 21 million one inch
square "lots." Deeds to a square inch were included
in each box of Quaker Oats. Since it was my favorite
program I undoubtedly got at least one, Probably more!
Now I'm wondering what happened to my land! Maybe
there's gold there! I thought about going to check it
but decided against it. Here's the thing. I began to wonder
if I might owe property tax!!!! Remember, I got that
land 50 or 60 years ago! I decided to stay home and
stick with my Cheerios! Hope you're enjoying your
breakfast cereals and that all your NEWS is good!
