Never Forget The Challenger Crew

For the most part, I don’t remember seeing the Challenger explosion on TV at school, even though several of my friends say we saw it.   Maybe they did and I was sick that day. I was almost certain it was a snow day so the school had canceled classes that day. I was in the first grade and only 7 so I probably don’t remember too well.   On thisContinue reading “Never Forget The Challenger Crew”

Remembering The Legacy Of Dr. King Seems More Important Each Year

No Surprise As Islamic Center In Tusa Suburb Is Denied Amongs Opposition

Have to say, I’m not surprised a proposed Islamic center in the Tulsa suburb of Broken Arrow was denied. Officials on the BA City Council said it was an issue over traffic and the proposal just didn’t meet the standards.   Which is all bullshit.

But I’ve even known people who take them down on Dec. 26. I went to work one Dec. 26 years ago andContinue reading “Are Your Christmas Decorations Still Up?”

Please Help If You Can

It’s been a little over a month since Ainsley passed. It happened on Thanksgiving weekend and shocked all of us. Ainsley was known and loved by all. Shortly before my mom passed, she would interact with Ainsley’s mother in civic events in my hometown where she would often see Ainsley and her son around. https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-doug-and-jack-rebuild-after-losing-ansley?fbclid=IwdGRjcAPJJyVjbGNrA8knDWV4dG4DYWVtAjExAHNydGMGYXBwX2lkDDM1MDY4NTUzMTcyOAABHj1sMC_Jew-g70dmBySQm8aGEooAxWXydtMKSVQXpSzyb4Z2y8GVBo59hiDE_aem_kVzMhDTVDyT0j7wXlDMOjQContinue reading “Please Help If You Can”

Clear Creek Monastery In The Ozarks

Opened in 1999, the Clear Creek Monastery is a Benedictine Abbey located in the Ozarks in Cherokee County, Oklahoma. The monastery also goes by Our Lady of the Annunciation of Clear Creek Abbey or just simply Clear Creek Abbey. It’s part of the Tulsa Diochese and reportedly houses about 60-70 monks from all over theContinue reading “Clear Creek Monastery In The Ozarks”
