3. Oh yeah, lots and lots of people. Quite a few actually live there.
I couldn't give you an exact number, but surely millions have driven through it.

6. I've always thought that'd be a good place for Jeebustan.
We could build a 30 ft wall around it and let 'em live according to old testament law. Hooker would be the obvious place for the capitol.

14. I was driving the kids to Woodward, OK to see their Dad
I asked him where Woodward was, he said "Oh it's just the 'other side' of Oklahoma City.:mad:
Sooo...somewhere in the several hours between OKC and Woodward, I found a nice little Indian Travel Store and bought the kids some drums and tambourines that they could play with while spending time with their Dad....

16. We drove on US 64 all the way across
You can go like a demon, we averaged 90 mph. this was in Sept. 04 there were reptile yard signs all across the state, except for one house. In that sea of madness we came across someone whose yard and house that was covered with K/E signs and local dems. I told my wife now that person has balls.

17. Nope, just Tulsa and Lawton
Spent about 5 or 6 months at Ft. Sill for Officer Basic Course, and made a few trips to Tulsa while I was attending law school in Fayetteville, AR. Never made it to the panhandle.

If you come through Kansas City, let me know and we can have a meetup. There are a bunch of great DUers here.
