The Gadfly On The Tube
The Verdict: Kent Meyers is the co-host (with Mayor Mick Cornett) of "The Verdict" that airs on Cox Cable Channel 7 Sunday mornings at 9 in Oklahoma City and on Cox Cable Channel 3 in Tulsa at 9:30 and repeats during the week. This Sunday, Norman attorney Micheal Salem and I discuss (former) national talk show host Don Imus, whose comments about lady basketball players dominated the news and sent him packing. Poor Kent couldn't get a word in edgewise. Salem and I are philosophically 180 degrees apart, but he's an engaging, witty guy who offers solid thoughts and I enjoyed the repartee.

Not So: Rumor mill working overtime this week, some speculating that I'm returning to the air waves to host a radio show. Wrong. Been there, done that.
Tis So: On the other hand, it is no rumor that former President Bill Clinton is a multi-gajillionaire. Made more than $10 million last year giving speeches. Such a life. (Frosty Troy, eat your heart out!)
So-So: Thanks for the nice comments about our new news crawler from Widgetmate. It has a few bugs (sometimes goes down, sometimes repeats stories, sometimes doesn't pick up Oklahoma stories) that need to be worked out. Work in progress.
Ah So: The more President Bush pushes his immigration bill, the lower his approval rating goes. No surprise here. So Soppy: The 1957 Plymouth buried in a vault in Tulsa 50 years ago turned out Friday to have been sopping wet. Rusty, mud-caked, inoperable, the car was unveiled as part of the Oklahoma Centennial Celebration in Tulsa. Drew worldwide attention. Can't say much for the construction of the vault or the effectiveness of the multiple wrappings that were supposed to keep the vehicle free of rust.
Grandson Colby...continues his Seabee duty somewhere in Iraq. Working 12+/6 and more. Thanks to those who've asked about him. It was our plan when he was deployed that he'd blog with us, but security is tight, his time is limited; ergo, his diary entries are few and far between.
