I’ve lived in OK my whole life and I can ASSURE you, anyone who believes we are all a bunch of ignorant inbreds, that we are not all like Mr. James… not in the least.
@Angie — agreed, I went to the University of Oklahoma and never, ever witnessed this type of evil from anyone while I lived there. Oklahomans are some of the nicest, most respectful people I’ve ever met. Idiots like Gary James are an embarrassment.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention that the Bannaroo Festival line-up was announced and NIN is playing there on June 13.
@shannon — whoops, missed that one … but I added, thanks!!
Nice to see Wahlberg finally making an honest woman out of the girl. Took him long enough!
Im sooooo going to watch Kendra make it big leaving the Mansion. Im a huge GND fan.
I read the article on J.K. Rowling, and right after, I found this article. Apparently, Stephanie Meyer “can’t write worth a darn” and Rowling is amazing. I just so happen to agree ;)
