GK: ..our show comes to you from New Mexico which has a lot to offer if you have a project that needs a lot of land, this is the state for you. We have 121,000 square miles of land, so if you're looking for a place to locate your next airport (JETS), self-storage warehouse (BACKING UP SIGNAL) or Gran Prix style race track (RACING) or a place where you could drive your all-terrain vehicle around at high speed naked and drinking beer and firing a shotgun (SFX), this is the place. Or maybe you just like to blow up stuff. (SFX) Join the club. (SFX). Or if you're looking to relocate your particle accelerator (SFX) or a place to build a catapult that will throw a semitrailer a quarter mile (SFX) or a place where you can communicate with other cosmoses by digging large circles in the ground and putting in flashing red lights (SFX). Move your business to New Mexico and you'll always have great parking. A message from the New Mexico Chamber of Commerce.
