Always heard this over the years and used to really contribute to it as well.


and btw....MC also the lowest unemployment rate of under 4%........

and since the OC is sports based, to a point, three of the schools have combined for 17 state football championships in the last 25 years.

I was visiting a friend in Marion County last night to help them rise up a bit higher than merely being Top 20. That's pure minor leagues there...

I was surprised too, since all my Richland County friends are booze hounds.

Come to think of it, nearly all my friends are booze hounds. And so am I.

Man, now I need a drink or 10.

Sad times! My claim to fame is that my legs have been shown on Oprah, haha. Lisa Ling teamed up with her and Nightline to do a report on heroin in Ohio back in 2008. One of the girls they profiled was on my high school cheerleading squad. They showed a team picture with blurred/cropped out faces, but my legs are prominently displayed. #famous

I remember you talking about that somewhere. The cheerleader profiled, that is...not sure if you mentioned the famous legs, though, lol.
