feeling is mutual-- the blog!

We're back on the interwebs! I would like to take this opportunity to say hello to the outside world, I've missed you all very much. All complaints as to my lack of communication shall be directed to the offices of Cox Communications, whose internet "service" is a joke.

For those who know me and Chris on a personal level, you know that we survive on a steady diet of House, MD and PBS. That's it...that's all we require. We don't love "I love New York", we've never seen a single episode of "The Hills", and even the History Channel in unnecessary. Just give us a set of bunny ears, and please don't call us between 8 and 9pm on Tuesday nights cause, suckas, we're watching Fox and you KNOW we won't answer our phones.

When I say that we watch a lot of PBS, I mean that it's all we watch (except between 8 and 9pm on Tuesdays). It's not because we're elitist or believe that TV will usher in the fall of civilization. We're just cheap. And really? PBS? Pretty awesome.

So, Tulsa, I just want to say that you have BROKEN MY HEART. Even with our state of the art bunny ears (not those $9.99 sets for the amateurs...we splurged for the $15.99 pair) the only channel that comes in is Univision. UNIVISION! Until They start broadcasting with English subtitles, this just will not stand.

I AM NOT going to be strong armed into buying basic cable. Cox Communications shall not win!

If you get yourself a new-fangled digital TV, you get not one but THREE DIFFERENT PBS stations. Without paying for cable. Pretty sweet. I'm just sayin'

I was talkin' bout you the other night. Trying to encourage a graphic designer I met that he may not be stuck laying out the church page at the Cushing paper for the rest of his life. "Take my friend Marissa," I says. She worked at the paper in Shawnee for quite a bit, and now she works at ... and I paused and looked at the bar and there it was "Urban Tulsa Weekly!" I says, and points out your name right there in black and white. I'm not sure if it helped him or not.

So ... yeah.

It's so neet to know semi-famous successful-ish people! Congrats on the UTW gig. We're faithful readers.

Stay strong in the fight against the evil emprire that is Cox Cable. If you need help installing one of those mega momma-jomma antenna's that you put in your attic, you should give your brother a call. He seems like a handy fellow. :P

And seriously, you can avoid me all you want, I'm going to keep bugging you until you let us have you over for dinner or something. So, you might as well acquiesce to our advances now.

You guys make me feel so important! In reality, though, I spend the majority of my time making sure Tulsans know where to go for booze and cheap women.
Liz. Jimmy. Both of you... we need to spend some quality time together. For reals.
