‘Freed by the Bell’

This fall a new comedy from NBBC follows the hilarious antics of a middle aged man going from death-row to front-row! Bay High might seem like the perfect high school but principal Peters can’t figure out which one of the fun-loving students is racking up an alarming murder count! Detective Rikkels has a crazy idea that just might work, use a serial killer to catch a serial killer! It’s a laugh out loud all for the family evening show new this fall.

6,000 Volts Orca Red Line

“Stay back, do not touch it.  It’s right there, right at your feet, now snaking up the wall at arm level, but definitely do not touch it.  6,000 VOLTS! It says it right there….and there it is, how did you get so close?  Why are you staring at the Red Line anyway?”

Local activists revealed to be ‘hot for each other’

Fantasy Fudge, Tribulations of Gerry and Holidays in Oklahoma

As Thanksgiving approaches let us recall the worst fudge recipe in the history of the world, ‘Fantasy Fudge’ and big Oklahoman family get-togethers that usually resulted in at least a few feuds carried on all year long and an uncle who didn’t get a bicycle so used that as a reason to slide into alcoholism for over fifty years.

Rural Route 2, Oklahoma in the 80’s and lots and lots of spiders.

Trigger Warning: there is an abundance of spiders, ticks and scorpions in this story. An animal dies and generally this is a pretty damn dark story, and nobody should read it.

I see spiders. Spiders find me. I have nutty interactions with spiders almost every week. They will slide down a web in front of my face. Come over and sit beside the mouse while I work at the computer. They’ll come and do dishes with me. Spiders are my spirit animal and it’s horrific. Why not owls? Or birds? Maybe a sharp billed Raven. I would take a possum or even a grasshopper. Why Spiders oh’ Universe?

Food producers are allowed to put in more vitamin mix then required so that labels can say, “200% of your daily required…” The low-nutrient food sources are also fortified with iron which causes a whole Pandora’s box of health issues such as in white Caucasians, who are prone to hemochromotosis a genetic predisposition to store extra iron. Vitamin C causes an uptick in Iron acquisition and is also commonly added to food and supplemented meaning most people get several times their iron requirements daily. And finally, worth of an entire book by itself: inorganic phosphates that can literally turn your elastic happy heart arteries to stone.

Visitors and tourists stopping for gas on their way out of town at Curly’s (Pit Stop) often raise an eyebrow at the dense woods across the highway curiously fenced in, as if holding top government secrets. Eight foot tall chain link fence is topped with an abundance of barbed wire, and cameras at the most … Continue reading Cursed Forest Lands to Be Re-branded ‘Astor Wood’ in Smart Financial Move
