happy birthday, Oklahoma! in celebration, here's a variety of links:

the Travel OK Infocenter with touristy-type information, or for those who intend never to visit this great state, few short facts (for those with short attention spans), or maybe you'd rather look at a pretty, colorful
shaded relief map or satellite image.

Betty's and Jim's Cool Data Page with buttloads of links on all sorts of topics, like Agriculture, Drugs, Education, Media, Politics, the State Budget and Weather, all focused around the Oklahoma City area because OKC is the only city in Oklahoma. really.

and here's a site that's not pretty and can't be considered exhaustive by any standard, but it does say "Oklahoma, during prehistoric times, as evidenced by the fossil record, was part of the great sea that covered it, Kansas, and Texas. Thankfully, God saw fit to uplift the land. It was a close vote but He also lifted up Texas too." anyone who recognizes Texas for the shite hole it is deserves a link on my blog.

not to give anyone the impression that i think Oklahoma is all hugs and puppies, i point out a letter concerning the "Joklahoma Legislatures" (Watts and Inhofe, specifically). and, just because i enjoy disliking the corrupt asshole so much, here's The Religious Freedom Coalition's "Two Faces of J.C. Watts Page"
