[Porsche-O-Phile]

One of my wife's very good friends is a lifelong Wichita resident. I guess if you've grown up with it, it's a decent enough place. Personally I think I'd go out of my skull in about a week, but I'm just kind of like that - I need options.

Generally she speaks pretty well of the place although an occasional bit of resentment towards the redneck/go-nowhere-in-life attitude that exists to some extent there creeps in. She's done well for herself but also taught in the school system there for many years - I think she just got frustrated (as most teachers would) with the students/parents that don't place much value on edu-mi-cation.

I was glad to have visited - it's a neat place and generally I found the people to be nice and the cost of living to be reasonable. But there's no way I could fathom living there.
