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...Fab4Runner;1616195 wrote:Grew up in Huron and right next to Crawford. Not bad, not bad.

I was surprised too, since all my Richland County friends are booze hounds.Mohican00;1616210 wrote:I didn't see Richland on there which was surprising
Come to think of it, nearly all my friends are booze hounds. And so am I.
Man, now I need a drink or 10.

Probably because the folks in Southern Ahia are hoovering up all the Oxycontin before it can get that far north....

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. #famousHeretic;1616248 wrote:lol, when I saw Crawford at #2, first thing that popped into my head was "#2 in booze, but #1 in heroin!"
