    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.

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

    Many of the drunks from Mercer are regulars at the Minster Oktoberfest.

    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

    Surprised Ottawa was not #1. No doubt it is in the summer.
