Alec Baldwin’s career has been on a rocky road following the fatal shooting accident on the set of Rust in 2021. Baldwin’s legal battles have consumed most of his time as he’s only been able to be in less than stellar movies. But in the early 1990s, he was on fire as the next biggestContinue reading “‘Malice’ Is A Rollercoaster Of Twists”

Nifty Place For A Nest
I stopped by the PetSmart in Broken Arrow, Okla. a few weeks ago and as I was leaving, I noticed a bird’s nest in the sign above the store. I thought it was a nice place to build a nest as some people have birds as pets themselves. I’ve thought about it a couple ofContinue reading “Nifty Place For A Nest”
Class Dismissed For Ryan Walters
When I was covering education in Oklahoma schools about 15 years ago, it was ranked 17th in the nation and then the next year in 2011, it was ranked 11th. Not bad for a state that is often the butt of jokes. Yet, when I was covering education, I noticed faculty/staff and administrators were moreContinue reading “Class Dismissed For Ryan Walters”
Taylor Ferry Beach
Summer may be officially over but I took these pics the other day of Taylor Ferry Beach on Fort Gibson Lake, a few miles from my house. The U.S. government under the Flood Control Act of 1941 constructed the Fort Gibson Gravity Dam a few miles north to on the Grand (Neosho) River to formContinue reading “Taylor Ferry Beach”
“I’m A Man! I’m 40!” Sayonara!
Not to say that Mike Gundy didn’t have a great ride as the head coach of Oklahoma State University’s Cowboys football team, but he kinda became a joke after the Sept. 22, 2007 close win over Texas Tech. That was the day when he screamed as loud as he could, “I’m a man! I’m 40!”Continue reading ““I’m A Man! I’m 40!” Sayonara!”
Happy Fall, Y’all!
Well, the Fall Season, otherwise called Autumn, is here. Here in the Tulsa area, it still feels like summer as temperatures are expected to have highs in the 80s well into October. Here is a picture I snapped of the exterior of the BOK Center in downtown Tulsa. I’ve only been here once to seeContinue reading “Happy Fall, Y’all!”
Vaya Con Dios, Sundance Kid!
I don’t think many would argue with me that Robert Redford was one of the last of the classic legends of Hollywood. At 89 when he passed in Provo, Utah, Redford started out at a different time in Hollywood. The Hays Code still kept writers and directors from doing fully expressing themselves. But the StudioContinue reading “Vaya Con Dios, Sundance Kid!”
Happy Birthday To The King, Stephen King, That Is!
As a long-time Stephen King fan, I want to wish him a Happy Birthday as he turns 78 today. For a man to live the life he has and to still be kicking is a testament to perseverance. Raised in poverty mostly in rural Maine, his father left when he was two. And King andContinue reading “Happy Birthday To The King, Stephen King, That Is!”
Koi Pond At Gathering Place
I stopped by The Gathering Place on the western side Tulsa on the Arkansas River earlier this week. It was still too hot and I’m still getting over an illness, so I couldn’t walk around much. But I got this picture of the koi pond near the main lodge.
‘Killer Tomatoes’ Attack In Classic Horror Comedies
You have to love a movie in which the San Diego Chicken actually helps take down killer tomatoes. When the original Attack of the Killer Tomatoes was released in 1978, it seemed to be a parody of B movies from the post-WWII era as well as the “When Nature Attacks” movies that had exploded followingContinue reading “‘Killer Tomatoes’ Attack In Classic Horror Comedies”
