We sure are a bunch of ADD posters on TulsaNow.

I am just as guilty as everyone else, but I notice lately we seem to have gotten worse. Topics about Sarah Palin turn into discussions about local beer and topics about chinese food turn into words about pizza. Pizza talk becomes two people talking about bus services to the suburbs and PlaniTulsa threads all become about streetlights.

I admit, sometimes the conversation needs to be changed or ended. But we can't seem to ever stay on topic for more than a couple of thoughts.

TU's acorn lights suck.  Worst campus lighting in the nation.

I don't think there should be any punishment, but we should each at least try to occassionally get back to the topic.

I think of these threads as conversations between a few people that has many other people listening. When we hear from different points of view on an interesting topic, we tend to learn from each other and usually even come up with a few good ideas or solutions.

That is the thing I like best about TulsaNow.

Take that, you Obama spooners.

Has everyone seen this photo yet?


It's fake.


I'm no Palin fan (I liked her at first, now I'm kinda 'eh'), but I felt compelled to expose this because the person who made it, instead of saying nothing, is claiming it's real.

May not be real, but it's accurate...

An incredibly obvious fake, no less.

A lot of people on Facebook were pulled in hook, line and sinker though.  ::)
