Tulsa Memories from the 80's

Neighbor of Howie Sewell's got a Mini Trail for Christmas around that time. They lived in Park Plaza by Memorial High School.  His parents owned a oilfield supply company in Sand Springs. Kevin Caldwell I believe. Think their business was Caldwell Supply.  Larry Clark, who's dad was Elmer Clark of Parrish & Clark had a 125, along with Howie's younger brother and a few other neighborhood motorcyle riders.


Mini Trail Honda 70


I remember a Benelli that a kid had in Sungate.  It was black as I recall.  There were more motorcycle riders that lived in that neighborhood too.  



When we first moved out that way there were only houses on one street which was the Parade of Homes street.  As the new developments went in, we were fortunate to have lots of road graders, bulldozers making trails and jumps for us to ride on.  

I had a Honda 305 Scrambler in 1966.


This is a CL77 Honda 305 Scrambler from that era


This is a CL90 Honda from that era




These 1969 Bridgestone 350's were bad fast.  Twin rotary valve two cycle engines.  I remember having to replace, under a factory recall, the crankseals in 15 of these that Curley sold at his shop Custom Cycle Sales at 42nd and Peoria in 1969.

I have a CL-90 sitting in the shed. I need to get it running if it hasn't locked up.
We had and old Honda 50, a Sachs 100 (?) and a Garelli. We started out with an Allstate (Sears) Moped. 50cc's I think. What a hoot! My brother later picked up a Suzuki TS120. It had a lever on the clutch sid etrhat you could shift from trail gears to street gears. That thing could climb trees.

Those stores always had interesting stuff in them!

Willie George pastors Church on the Move. Never been there. Not sure of the denomination, charismatic I think.



That's a good question.  I guess you have to go to Heaven to find out.

Wow... that "new message" needs to be censored because it is a total lie.  I wonder how he got so "off" with his message?  Anyway, yeah, now that I think back, Carmen did attend his church because a friend of mine went there every Sunday back in the late 80's trying to get his attention to date her.  From what I remember, that church had more single women that you could count.

Willie George... I remember him from the 80's.  He had a hugh children's ministry with a western theme and puppets.





Willie George went by the name Gospel Bill.  My parents sent me to his little youth camp in the Forum 21 mall at 21st and Garnett.  All I remember about it was a lot of singing and some back room where a few kids would faint.  Bizarre.

I think they also did a TV show on the UHF channels called "Fire by Night." Not bad for low budget fare. I remember watching it a few times while SNL was dealing with that writers' strike.

"Fire By Night"!!  I forgot about that show.  I believe Blaine Bartel was one of the actors on the show..he lived in my neighborhood.  He once had a film crew at his house late into the evening hours.  They were making a special about some kid who got into a satanic cult and murdered his parents.  A bunch of us kids were playing across the street watching it all, so we got to be extras by standing in the street like neighbors (which I guess we really were) as they wheeled the "dead bodies" out.  Wow, that really brought back some memories.

I saw that show a few times. I think I saw it when I was in Arizona. Can't remember too well, that was a few years ago. I thought it was a neat show. My son has a movie with Willie in it as well as Ken Copeland. It's, of course, a western.

Copeland Signs contract for new Jet!

As we reported here last year, Kenneth and Gloria Copeland have been seeking donations from their partners to buy themselves not one but two new Cessna Citation X jets. Well, glory to God the partners have come through once again!

Copeland announced last week that he has signed a contract for the first of these jets. Check out the announcement from Copeland's Elite CXTeam website

The cost of this state of the art private jet is approximately $20 million. This will only be the latest addition to Copeland's private air force. Along with the new Citation X, the Copeland's also have a Cessna Citation 550 Bravo (valued at $3.4 million), PLUS a Grumman Gulfstream II (worth $4.5 million) AND a Cessna Golden Eagle AND a Beech E-55 AND assorted lesser aircraft AND his own airport.

Yes sir there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Kenneth Copeland needed another private jet. And I'm also quite sure the apostle Paul is looking in from heaven and just kicking himself. You see Paul could have avoided all his travel problems (2Cor 11:24-27) if he had just taken up an offering to buy himself his own ship.

Oh what fools those early apostles were. When people brought them money they turned around and gave it back out to those in need (Acts 4:34-35). What a bunch of dopes! How much more efficiently could they have spread the gospel if they had just taken that money and bought themselves new chariots, horses, and ships, not thttp://apostasywatch.com/wolves/page4.htmlo mention gated mansions and vacation homes!.
http://www.elitecxteam.org/

I suppose we shouldn't be surprised. Jesus said we would do greater works than He did (John 14:12). Commander Kenneth is living proof of this scripture. While Jesus only multiplied loaves and fishes, Copeland has an anointing to multiply airplanes! If that's not a miracle I don't know what is!

How Copeland has avoided a Prime Time Live expose by now, simply amazes me....
