Oh, I guess I’m supposed to be politically correct and call them magnates, but I think maggots fits much better…… Not really being a sports nut nor a gambler (I think if gambling laws were enforced you would see a very serious drop in the interest of professional sports)…… At 5:00 pm CST today, the […]
Since I’m planning to run for “The Prez’s” job, I decided to become a new Oklahoma Tourism Ambassador…. I thought that a little more education wouldn’t be a bad thing, so I attended one of our exclusive private schools…. The curriculum there is the benchmark used by all higher education facilities in the state…. The […]
I truly believe Global warming is a fact….. We have serious calendar slippage here…. We’re going into the sixth day straight with temperatures above 90 degrees…. Yesterday it reached 98 (a new record and 26 degrees above normal) in the OKC area (100 and above at other locations) and the wind was blowing out of […]
I hope not!…… Well, the surgery has been rescheduled for this Friday the 31st……. I won’t know the exact time until the day before…… Surely, this thing will come down this time and I can put it behind me….. So-o-o, I leave the Blog in Community hands…… Use and Abuse to your heart’s desire……. So […]
About three weeks ago, I met with the surgeons at the V.A. and was officially set-up for Thyroid surgery on the 24th of March….. Everyday since then, I’ve awoke with knots in the stomach, nervousness, sleeplessness, and headaches just thinking of all the possible outcomes of the surgery, but, there was one scenario that had […]
This one’s aimed at HS University….. I heard that they have an outstanding meteorology department there with direct connection to the National Storms lab in Norman, Oklahoma…. I caught a little bit on this on a local TV weather broadcast…. C.A.S.A., which I assume is an abbreviation for something (hence the periods I put in), […]
No, you can’t get Frank Zappa recordings for free in OKC, you can’t find them (almost)…. A friend asked me to do some guitar work on a version of “Montana” he did and I couldn’t find my CD copy of “Over-nite Sensation” anywhere (My Vinyl copy is in storage and would probably take months to […]
This is a reprint of a commentary in the Oklahoma Gazette Feb. 8. 2006 I thought it was Bloody Hilarious! There’s no history like no history By William W. Savage Jr. It’s much ado about nothing, this flap over Senate Bill 982 and whether its passage last year by our state Legislature really means kids […]
MRambler jumps for joy after winning Olympic Lead in the “Why the Hell am I still in Oklahoma” competition….. MR attributes his record breaking victory to premeditated procrastination and sheer dumb stupidity….. “The competition was really tough” stated MR and he would like to thank his sponsors – “JekTarn Hiking Supply” of Seattle, WA for […]
We have this white stuff all over the ground here in Oklahoma, I’m scared what is it?
Yes, you heard right, the Border Patrol is running ads on local radio for officers…… I thought, well, they must be for use in Texas where the Mexican border is, although, I feel it had moved into Oklahoma years ago (see my post I don’t want to live in Mexico )……. The same night after […]
…..And across the plains, of Oklahoma, that is…… I don’t know for sure if I’m responsible for the recent firestorms that are raging across Oklahoma or not, but I made a post on the 13th of October – Weather or Not? about all the weird weather that was happening around the world and the possible […]
Well I guess you have all heard the news. Monday GM announced that they will close the Oklahoma City assembly Facility. I worked for a GM contractor for 2.5 years and was laid off last Oct. and guess what the UAW did not do squat for us. We were told “that’s just how it goes” […]
That’s what you get if you have any kind of vested interest in the oil and gas industry these days…… Anyone from the oil company CEO to the neighborhood convenience store owner are making immediate excessive profits off Katrina and the oil industry in general….. These are called “Windfall profits” because the original production costs […]
Yeah, you see birds sitting on highline wires all the time….. They can get away with it because their legs are too short for them to be able to touch more than one wire at a time and unless they fall with the wire, they’re not going to come in contact with the ground and […]
