Before we get to the gist of this post, I'd like to welcome myself back from a brief trip to Denver. I flew there this week to see family and friends, work, watch some Cubs baseball, conduct business meetings, eat at Snarf's, work, and purchase weed legally from a store. It was a fun trip!
Despite the best effort of our new license plate to trick people into thinking otherwise, Colorado and Oklahoma don't have a lot in common. The differences between the two states are so stark and obvious that even an OU football player could come up with a list items for a "Compare and Contrast" essay. For example, one state has majestic mountains and snowy peaks. One state doesn't. One state has cheap rent. One state doesn't. One state has a normal, functioning legislature. And, obviously, one state doesn't.
