Love OB and love the OB Rag – keeps me up on the OB news and events. Favorite music shop is The Cow – if you want it they got it from vintage to new. Favorite gift shop is the Black and favorite place to eat is Hodads.
It has to be the “HOT” new OB Rag t-shirts we started selling recently. Besides the outstanding craftsmanship of our writers,where else can you get the news and high (as in 42o) fashion all in one news site? Outstanding job!, unpaid staff of the OB Rag. You are “Da Kine!”
