        Yes. If I had to live in my Ohio home town I'd be at least a daily drinker, like my two childhood friends. Or join the opioid epidemic.

        Pretty simple. I'm a scientist in Boston. Need to be around smart liberal educated people. My smart friends who stayed home, drink. A lot.

        I'm from Jasper county, literally just north of Oske, and I couldn't agree more. Rural Iowa is deafeningly empty.
