I guess my wife and I are old enough that novelty and cool factor mean little to us when it comes to groceries.

Look at this Grocery in downtown Cleveland

Well that's one adaptive re-use for a rotunda!

I thought it was funny how Tulsa World treated this as "breaking news" this afternoon.

Been better if it was an Oklahoma Joe's or even Eskimo Joe's.  ;D
Changing opinions one mistake at a time.

Would take Eskimo Joe's over Oklahoma Joe's any day of the week.  Just wasn't very impressed.

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Only if you like pretty good barbeque....

I have mentioned Black Jaxx in Oologah before - well, he went out of business some time back, but it was worth the drive all the way there.

This place is just about as good.  Plus they have live music some evenings - I don't know the schedule - not winter, I bet, but have set inside and listened through the wall....didn't want to sit outside at the time.  And I really hope that no more than about two or three readers here listen to me on this - I don't want them to get so overwhelmingly busy that I can't get in....

Are there no moderators on this forum? This forum is the worst forum I have ever been on with respect to the lack of "moderation".  I and I know others, get tired of clicking on a topic and hoping to read about it or participate in the discussion only to find the conversation has nothing to do with the topic. This was a good forum but I am now finding that it is practically worthless as every thread gets hijacked. If you want to talk about "beer or bbq" start a thread on it!

And to put my money where my mouth is, I will volunteer to be a moderator but know that this forum will be cleaned up. 3 warnings for hijacking threads, and I will boot your arse off.

Definitely see your point....

It's kind of easy to see how we drift off into space - starting with Trader's...which is related to food and beverage, which brings us to other purveyors of food like Reasors, Sprouts, Whole Foods, and Walmart....with a gentle right (or left) turn to places that prepare that food for us.  Comparisons abound.  Pretty soon we are out in the Dagobah system.  (Notice the gentle nudge toward a Star Wars hijack...)

With a wild-a$$ detour to Ren and Stimpy land!!   Whew!  Talk about right out of left field!!

Yeah, we probably need a light touch of adult supervision...but it's just SO much fun!!
