Top Ten Places Not To Visit!

Well, even if you're one of those people that have lied about coming to visit Nicole, Hunter and I in our new location you might think again.  Reading AOL News today, they featured a story with the top ten places not to visit in the world.  Who's on the list?
10-Baghdad, Iraq
9-Dhaka, Bangladesh
8-Yakutsk, Russia
7-Mogadishu, East Africa
6-Chernobyl, Ukraine
5-Oklahoma City, OK
4-Pyongyang, North Korea
3-Bujumbura, Republic of Burundi
2-Linfen, China
1-Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea

Ok seriously who made this list?  I stared for quite some time thinking it had to be a mistake, maybe this is the blatant way God is trying to tell me something...i really doubt that though.  Is OKC really this bad?  I ask this as i watched a tornado form while sitting at a stoplight tonight.  Luckily i was heading to my small group so i felt like God might have mercy (it touched down 5 miles down the road) and hail has most likely destroyed my car, overall though i think its been an alright night!  Possibly the real lesson here is that when God calls you somewhere you have a better attitude about your surroundings, more practically i'll take tornadoes and bad weather for restaurants that stay open past 9, sushi and a variance of culture.  It still hurts that they rank us that low....ahhh these news people.  On a lighter note ive been asking a lot of the "best ever" questions lately.  Yesterday it was two, best rap song ever, and best michael jackson song ever.  Todays two questions, best comedian ever, and best sub-compact car ever!  What do you think?  Dying for some common answers?  Best rap song ever, most popular response, Regulators by WarrenG (dont act like you dont know).  Best Michael Jackson song ever, most popular response, Thriller, my response...Heal the World (sub-titled, little boy love mix).  Best comedian ever, most popular response...Chevy Chase, best sub-compact car ever, Ford Festiva.  I'll be asking more of these over the next couple of weeks so stay tuned!

Its people like you that make people not want to visit OKC. I lived there for the summer of 2006 and hated every minute of it! I met tons of people on a daily bases, and I have never been somewhere where the locals are more anal than they are in OKC. Trust me, its on the list for a reason; don't go there!
