The Dash*


You can't read that but this international retailer says my city is invalid. That's odd, I live here. Maybe they are trying to tell us something. You know, like don't rename your minor league baseball team with a $40 million debt after a punctuation mark. Or, when you add one cigarette brand and another together, it equals twice the fall out of local (cancer causing) industry (yes I know that is not really the origin of the name. It's this if you are curious).

Perhaps Tim Clodfelter said it best: In a digital world it appears that Winston-Salem simply doesn't compute.

*technically it's a hyphen
