When tragedy or some other element of  our lives confronts us, we tend to forget that we chose a particular job, education path, or lifestyle. When we should be proclaiming our happiness, we [...]

OKC is number 1

Local news and the chamber of commerce picked up this Forbes story (see this site for pictures), and quickly touted the multiple benefits of living in Oklahoma City. With this great ranking though, who could blame them.
