The deserts of the West hold many secrets. Well, mostly, just the bones of dead guys. Oh, and the occasional dead alien. But on the outskirts of Los Anos, travelers can visit a newly discovered grave site--one who's treasures are encased in cheap gold-plating.
13 year-old Bobby McDuke explains how he discovered this secret. "Well, my friends and me were looking for a place to huff--I mean, to play, and we were out in the desert and stuff, and Brad said, 'Hey, what's this thing?', and I said, 'What thing?', and he said, 'This thing!' I said 'What thing?', and he said..."
To make a (very) long story short, they discovered a number of Timex watches buried in the sand. The more they dug, the more they found. Dozens, hundreds--eventually thousands were unearthed, and more are being found every day.
When asked whether his company had buried all these watches in the New Mexico desert, and, if so, why, Timex spokesman Ed Timex, Jr, declared, "They stopped ticking." He refused to elaborate.
You too can join in the dig at the Timex graveyard site. Bobby McDuke and his friends are renting shovels for $15.00 per hour.
