But Fox News disagreed with Randy Reedy, so they locked him up. In a cage. With a rabid wolverine. To the cheers of hundreds.

Sadly, Randy Reedy wasn’t really randy or reedy. Ridiculous, the reputation a realtor can get in Rawnox! His relative Robert Rodent resides there, and riffles the rolodexes for Remax.

Ron Richardson runs a reindeer ranch outside Rawnox. Known as the Reindeer Wrangler, he rents the ranch from Ricky Ralston. Ricky refuses to relinquish the ranch, on the recommendation of realtor Randy Reedy. To reach the ranch, take a right on Randolph Road.

Richardson rides his reindeer in the recurring review “Christmas in Rawnox.” Residents recall a recent review when Richardson, riding Rudolph (a rare red-nosed reindeer) rear-ended Ricky Ralston’s recently repaired Rolls Royce. “Ron! You ruined it!” roared Ralston. “Rats,” replied Richardson, “I really hope Ricky doesn’t raise my rent.”

Rawnox is a really rural Republican republic. Their mayor has entered the 2020 Presidential Race, hoping to become a Resident of the Right Resident. Resident Ronald Rump. Right now he is a spokesman for the Ronald Ricronald’s fast food chain. The current President has tweeted about him: Do you want a clown in the Oval Office?"

Realtor Randy Reedy refuses to renovate retail space in Rawnox. This is mostly due to the difficulty in getting permits and inspections completed in an economic and timely manner.

The composer Randy Rossini has been working on new opera called _The Barber of Rawnox_. He’s looking for a way to incorporate the aria “Reedy Pagliacco,” about a heartbroken real estate agent.

Unfortunately, since Realtor Randy Reedy refuses to renovate retail space in Rawnox, mostly due to the difficulty in getting permits and inspections completed in an economic and timely manner, there are no Barbers of Rawnox. Indeed, Rawnox started the 1960’s long hair on men craze, for which they took some credit (and a lot of raw knocks).

There is a contingent of people who call themselves the Real Rawnoxers who believe that Rawnox is not an actual city in the United Stated but a mental construct of an autistic child with a snow globe. Scientists and academics find it very difficult to argue against this theory.

Rawnox, Ark. and Blawnox, Pa. have never diplomatically recognized each other. It took the personal intervention of UN Secretary-General U Thant in June 1962 to keep the two American cities from going to war with one another.

There has been, of course, a Secret War between the two ever since 1977, when the Mayor of Rawnox (Rappin’ Rodney Rangerfield) sent a two-penny stinkbomb to the Mayor of Blawnox (Orson Bean). Orson retaliated by scrambling Blawnox’s wi-fi, but, since wi-fi hadn’t been invented yet, it proved to be less of a hindrance than otherwise. Things never really escalated from there.

Rawnox Mayor Harold Phartuccio “Rappin’ Rodney” Rangerfield is, by all accounts, extremely paranoid about the risk of assassination. He has at least six lookalike or near-lookalike doubles who appear for him at public events that he deems particularly dangerous, including visiting elementary school civics classes.

Rawnox Mayor Harold Phartuccio “Rappin’ Rodney” Rangerfield’s extreme paranoia is understandable, since he is a dead(!) ringer for some very high ranking US government official who lives in a big white house. He has tried to get this guy to appear for him at a public event like visiting an elementary school civics class, but he refuses the offer claiming he is to stupid to do so.
