My husband is originally from India (has no relatives here in the U.S.), and has lived in the U.S. since 2002. He lived in Philadelphia for 6 years and then moved to Tulsa for a job (that’s how we met). Anyway, after being here, he found out he really doesn’t like it here. He prefers the big city living (as in Philly), because you can travel by train or car and get to so many different places (New York, beaches, etc) in not much time, loves the urban city part like all the activities of a downtown life, and likes the “character” of the Northeast much better than the South. Yes, I realize that Oklahoma is pretty flat, but the weather here is much better in my opinion, and yes, we do have hills, trees, grass, etc. here too. It’s not really fair to make a comparison of the two areas because the climate, terrain is completely different, but I guess it’s what you become accustomed to. So basically, he and I are pretty opposite in how we want to live, but we think we can make a compromise that we both can live with. Now we just have to decide on a city. He would love to go back to Philly, but the thought of living in the Northeast part of the U.S. is not appealing to me at all - I HATE THE COLD WEATHER and it is SO FAR AWAY from my family and friends. I personally think the Dallas, TX area would be a good compromise, but he said he definitely doesn’t want to stay there the rest of his life - he says it’s too hot and has no character. We already BOTH have some friends there, it’s not too far from Tulsa (so easy to travel back and forth), definitely a big city, and large airport for traveling (he is a traveling consultant, so having a big airport nearby is crucial). Some other options that we are looking at are Atlanta, Tampa Bay or St. Petersburg area, Miami maybe, and Charlotte, NC. I’m trying to focus on areas in the South or Southeast mainly. These aren’t the only options, and am open to other suggestions. I’ve only traveled through Atlanta, Tampa, and Miami - never been to NC at all. So I have no idea what it would be like to live there or what kind of cities these places are. If anyone could provide any insight on how it is to live in any of these places, that would be great. We’re just trying to blend a little of what we both want and find somewhere that would be good for both of us. So key points are: bigger city that has large airport nearby, lots of activity (like downtown life, etc), nicer weather than in the north, somewhere where you can drive your car to work (around a 30 min commute is fine) and not have to take pulic transportation, a fairly central place where you can drive a few hours and get to other interesting places, and nice housing opportunities (I definitely cannot do condo type living and prefer a suburban house with at least a 2 car garage). Thanks for any help! Hadn’t thought of Nashville, but will check it out. As far as kids, not sure that’s in the cards for us. I’m already 43 (no kids), and while it’s not out of the realm of possiblity, the chance of that happening at this point for me probably are not good. So schools are really aren’t a primary concern. I know Dallas and Atlanta areas are HUGE and there’s so many places to live. What would be some good options as far as an area to buy a home? We both make really good money, so a home around $300K $400K is not out of the question for us in the Dallas area. I know the Frisco area of Dallas is pretty far out and the Fort Worth area is pretty sparse - so probably will stay away from those two. Don’t know anything about Atlanta or what areas are good/bad. Resolved Question: Where does the Bricktown Canal lead? Resolved Question: Do you believe in ghosts? Eddy Curry claims he slept for only two hours Sunday night because he couldn’t stop thinking about ghosts roaming the hotel. For years, guests staying at the Skirvin Hilton have reported ghost sightings and strange noises. Legend has it that sometime in the 1930s, a woman jumped to her death while holding her baby in her hands. “They said it happened on the 10th floor and I’m the only one staying on the 10th floor,” Curry said. “That’s why I spent most of my time in (Nate Robinson’s) room. I definitely believe there are ghosts in that hotel.” New York Daily News

Flogging Molly is playing Tulsa tonight. I am on the list. Can even bring two of my kids because it’s an all-ages show. But I am not sure if I want to drive almost two hours to get there. But I think it would be totally cool for my 8 year old’s first concert to be his dad’s best friend’s band. Would you go? Is it worth the drive, you think? Resolved Question: Is it illegal to leave a bar/music venue with a bottle of water purchased inside? Resolved Question: Anyone know of any strip clubs 18 and over in Tulsa?
