Responsible Reporting?….

I don’t think so!….. Here’s a news story that ran on local TV over the past week that should have never been broadcast…… “Due to the high cost of fuel, thieves are now drilling holes in the bottoms of gas tanks with cordless drills in order to steal gas”….. Why do I think this is [...]

Enough Is Enough!!!!!!!!!!

I know we have had discussions on the gas prices before, but this is getting WAY OUT OF HAND! I’m seeing $4.00 + Diesel and $3.40+ gasoline down here in the south and in the Midwest. Now I know those of you in the great NW have been fighting these prices for some times and [...]

Celebrities….

I am getting so tired of all the bru haha about all the celebrities that seems to flood our media now days. I remember when movie stars were only heard of out of their rolls on the occasional talk show and a couple of times of year during the award shows, thats all. now it [...]

It’s Gettin’ Close…..

…. and I’m way behind….. I don’t know if I can get away with blaming the weather, but, I’ll give it a shot….. Not only was I without power for a full week, two days after OG&E replaced the downed lines and had everything up and running, I had power spikes and loss of power [...]

Frozen In…..

Back to the above ground electric lines….. Here, in Oklahoma, they are on the ground…. Over 600,000 customers without power, which includes yours truly since Sunday night around 10 pm….. That’s households and businesses, not people…. You would need to multiply by 2 or 3 or so to get a ballpark figure on the number [...]

If You Want It…..

…..Here It Is….. At your local Chevy dealer….. Another Lennon/McCartney song (actually Paul wrote it for Badfinger) used in a TV commercial….. Thanks again, MJ!….. I wonder if the big execs ever watched the movie “Magic Christian”?…… The Badfinger version of this song is played over a scene where people are diving for money in [...]

Unemployment Update……………

If anyone cares .Well Friends It’s been a few weeks and this experiment has gone horribly wrong. As you all know I quit a Perfectly huh! good job 3 weeks ago to pursue local employment, 1st I went to work for a company that completely misrepresented the job. After 2 days of grueling physical work [...]

It’s Fair Time…..SO WHAT

Maybe I’m becoming an old curmudgeon but I am already tired of hearing about the fair. I don’t care about any of the rides, all the exhibits in the buildings are about selling overpriced trinkets. The concerts are only places for the PWT kids to gather and try to buy beer and show off, Seems [...]

What ever happened to…..?

Service and taking pride in doing a good job in this country. We went out to eat last night the restaurant did not have certain items ready that should have been, the cooks were playing grab A*@ in the back and the wait staff was having to make up excuses for them. They were apologising [...]

HALLIBURTON

OK, MRamblers, let it fly. I would like to know what you really think.

Remember Pearl Harbor?

If you are a “Politically Correct” kind of person, then read no further!….. As of today (December 7th), it’s been 65 years since the Japanese brutally and savagely pulled-off their unprovoked infamous “sneak attack” against The United States at Pearl Harbor in 1941….. To me, the Japanese were far more fanatical and “Pure Evil” than [...]

Leave It To O.G.& E…….

O.G.& E. is our local electric company….. Today they had a sub-station go down causing power outages in South OKC, Moore, and Norman (home of OU) resulting in 3,800 customers burning-up in the 105 degree temperature we had today (and yesterday, and tomorrow)….. Not one to call them liars as to the reason this happened [...]

Speaking of Airlines…….

I have a question……. On the national news yesterday, they ran a story on the airline’s recovery from 911….. The three major airlines were showing profits from 150 million to 350 million this year, which is more than double their profits for the same period last year…… They accomplished this by cutting flights resulting in [...]

Money Maggots At Work…….

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 [...]
