Re: Are You Pissed Off? Tell us about it.

   On Thursday, May 8, 2008 several pet owners were given tickets for violating the pet leash laws in a park in Tulsa. The pet owners were operating under the delusion they were in a Pet Park.
   
   What is with Tulsa? No Pet Park? OKC has one. Tulsa wake up! Your not keeping up with the Jone's anymore. They scooped yopu on a big NBA deal a fancy smancy River walk next to a fake river and now they got a place for dogs to poop and we don't.

Re: Dream Bigger

   All discusssions so far have concentrated on a main event inside the new arena. Why not host a weekend long(Thursday thru Sunday) festival like the Mayfest or Greenwood Jazz festival that involves the entire arena neighborhood? This is TULSA arena so showplace talent from Tulsa. The Tulsa Symphony, our ballet troupe should perform. Local jazz, rock, blues and country acts can lead up to the big act provide by Carrie, Garth and Reba performing together. Use the Tulsa symphony as thier stage orchestra.
   The concert Saturday night could be the end of a buildup of smaller events set to stage event would then become the finaly

   You wear a business suit of clothes and sit in a living room suite (pronounced sweet).

   I am pissed off at McDonald's for having employed so many damn hispanics. There is no way that there are that many certified hispanics in Tulsa. You need a translator just to order a an Egg McMuffin. I wonder if someone wearing one of those blue INS jackets was to walk in, how many of those McD employees would flee out the back door?

   I have to ask.
   Where is my stimulus check?
   I work 50-60 hours a week at 3 jobs just to make ends meet. 3 jobs because most employers have no idea what a decent wage is. An those that do are going out of business or sending the jobs to Mexico.
   I rent, I don't own, I've never had good enough credit or enough to money to make a down payment on a house.
   I paid cash for the old car I drive.
   I don't have a zillion dollars in credit debt.
   I live a paycheck away from homelessness and have lived that way most of my life.
   I don't want a handout. I just want the opportunity to get and keep a job that will provide for my family.

Re: Rise of the Deli
 10/ 2/2009 - 9:40am
   None of these deli style restaurants in Tulsa can complete the true deli experience. None of them can make a soda phosphate or serve their sandwiches on true Jewish Ryes, Italian or French loaves or Grinder buns found throughout Boston, Chicago, New York or Philadelphia. What these restaurants try to claim is rye bread tastes like white bread with food coloring.

   What is driving this new generation of directors and choreographers that make them think that they can reinterpret classics? For 20 years we and our children have been thrilled by the fantasy magic that is the Nutcracker. The artistic interpretation and editorial opinion delivered by dance fails miserably to live up to the tradition that is Nutcracker. This liberal rewriting of tradition needs to end. Angelini is nothing more than a third rate hack when it comes to interpretation in dance. This presentation is stiff, without emotion and definitely without soul.

Re: Multitasking is Overrated

   The inability to do more than two things at a time is why we say a person cannot "walk and chew gum."
   
   Jugglers fool with the spectator's perception that they are accomplishing more than one thing at a time. They might have three to seven or more items flying about them in the air, but they are still only doing one thing at a time, catching or tossing a single item. The mirage that they are controlling the chaos in the air around them is an illusion.
   
   Even computers, a speedy as they have become, can only concentrate on one task at a time. They just move from task to task fast enough that perception is they are doing everything at once. Inside the brain of even the fastest computer, one task at a time is decided, then the next.
   
   Jugglers fool with perception that they can accomplish more than two things at a time. They might have three to seven or more items flying about them in the air. However, they are still only doing one thing at a time, catching or tossing a single item. The spectator's attention draws away continually by the chaos from the one task at a time that is actually happening.
   
   Even Time itself only accomplishes one task then the next and so on to infinity. A second must begin and end before passing to the next second. Until some Einstein discovers how to circumvent the passage of Time itself, this law is immutable. One event must be complete before the next event can begin. Physicists linear passage of time the Law of Linearity.
   
   Doing more than one thing at a time is an illusion. Another expression appears when one tries more than they can do at a time, "bit off more than he can chew." Try to accomplish the illusion at a speed beyond ability, the chaos comes crashing down and reveals the illusion’s deceptions. Concentrate on one task at a time, do it well, and move to the next.
   
   Walk and chew gum.
