January 01 2006 at 11:40:09 Name: Scott Linder Location: Hollywood-land Comments: To Dana LeMoine....thanks for the note about Frank Nelson.
I believe the Benny episode you were watching contains the famous Frank Nelson
line "No, I'm a float in the Rose Parade". There are several Frank Nelson
web sites, including one that has
several sound
bites from the Benny programs...just search his name.
By the way, my friend Doug (Frank's son) tells me that the "Yesssss" bit
began during a read-through of a Benny radio program. The script contained
a simple "yes" in response to another character's line which Frank stretched
into "yessss". Jack fell-off his chair with laughter and insisted that Frank
include it on the air. This led to one of the longest laughs in the show's
history, and became a signature of Franks numerous characters. OK, I have
more stories, but I'll quit rambling...
So, how are the dogs at Gus'? Will they FedEx to LA?

ESPN, today.
The TU Alumni Association is having a gathering of alums in New York at some
joint down in the Bowery.
The idea of trekking into Manhattan on New Year's eve--even in the
afternoon--leaving the bar after a few drinks, running into the hordes of
wingnuts who will be crushing each other in hopes of watching a lighted ball
descend over Times Square, while an embalmer continues working on Dick Clark,
with the ghost of Guy Lombardo waving a baton in the Great Beyond, and then
trying to get back home before dawn--well, I think I'd rather visit a
proctologist at an outdoor clinic in Antarctica.
Anyway, Happy New Year!

T-town Comments: Thanks Steve! I thought it was Stan Sharp. I agree that
Jim [as well as others] would be a breath of fresh air to the local airwaves.
Here's a picture of a T-shirt KMOD put out capitalizing on Stan Sharp's
popularity.
It may have been from the same year he did the "When I'm Six and Four" parody
of The Beatles song "When I'm Sixty-Four". Switzer's Sooners had the audacity
to lose to USC 28-24, tie Iowa State 7-7 and lose to Texas 34-14 in the first
four games of the '81 season. Of course that had the Sooner Nation up in
arms and questioning the competence of Switzer.
Funny how some things never change. Anyway, Stan Sharp piled on as well with
his very funny bits on the Sooners' woes that would include the catch phrase,
"Barry Switzer, you're breaking my heart!" Obviously that bit was the inspiration
for the T-shirt. I wish I had some tape of Jim on KMOD...
I picked up an "11th & Delaware" T-shirt at the new Starship today
to replace the one I wore out. (Also bought a Robert Fripp album, "Let The
Power Fall" and a Darol Anger/Barbara Higbie LP.) I like the "Inner City
Mall" painting on the new building, too.

a Beatles tune, asking the question for Switzer, "will you still love me
when I'm 6 & 4?"...he's one of a kind and needs to be back on the airwaves

December 27 2005 at 18:22:48 Name: Mike Bruchas Comments: Pauls Valley blaze today. KWTV aerial footage is all over
CNN. Scary stuff.
The "new" Nightline re-aired a lot of an ABC weekend sports special from
early in the Fall on the history of MNF last night. I was watching all on
15 year old - Wichita Salvation Army Store-bought Sony b&w WatchMan in
an airport - waiting to catch a very early morning flight. The overnight
cleaning crew thought I had a high-tech gizmo - too bad the WatchMan never
took off!
Way back when in the 70s - Tom Roberts and others in Engineering at 8 used
to go over the yearly ABC MNF show opens - trying to figure out how they
were done. The opens were the epitome of sports "art" to many tape editors.
December 27 2005 at 14:46:24 Name: Erick Email: ericktul@yahoo.com Location: Tulsa Comments: The MNF move has prompted other big sports moves. ESPN will
lose its Sunday Night Football package to NBC (John Madden will move to NBC
for Sunday Night Football, Al Michaels will stay with the MNF package despite
a big offer from NBC). This move prompted NBC to decline to bid for another
contract with NASCAR, because NASCAR would not agree to NBC's request to
have races held earlier in the day to avoid conflicting with football. Because
of this, ESPN and ABC have re-entered the NASCAR broadcasting world beginning
in 2007.
Unrelated to the MNF move, the Bowl Championship Series' 4 games will move
to FOX from ABC in 2007.

(the Dregs/Deep Purple guitarist), ELP and Edgar Winter live with Leon Russell.
As always, great selection of the more obscure material.
Got to speak with Matt the owner briefly at checkout. I asked him if this
was the new Odyssey Mall. Parking is no longer a problem either. He did have
a DVD of Saturday Night Live's "Best of Christopher Walken" which I now regret
not buying.
There are also murals of the old Starship/Honest John Inner City Mall complex
on the south side of the building. What looks to be the full size version
of the mural on the old building is hanging by the front also. It was nice
to see a pristine version of that artwork after so many years.

who appeared on the Jack Benny radio and television programs as well as many
"I Love Lucy" episodes, etc. (You know...the guy who often said "Yessss......."

p-casey-morgan@utulsa.edu Location: Public Radio Tulsa Comments: When I was 19, I was living with a 31 year old Canadian
guy, a very charming man named Al Beauvais. He worked at Terry's Old Bookstore
for about a year. I used to go in there every day to drop him off or pick
him up because we shared a car.
There were indeed some sections to the place, but it was a never-ending headache
to catalogue and shelve books. Al used to bring home grocery paper sackfuls
of them for me (I mention this without fear of retaliation because of the
number of years that have passed - this was 1972 or 73 - and because both
Al and store owner Walter Terry are long gone from this earth.)
For someone who reads as much as I do, it was heaven. The store was on North
Main, in the first block or so, on the west side. And there was an ENORMOUS
basement, also filled with books and magazines. Walter was rumored to have
a copy of the first Playboy down there, but he could never find it.

December 23 2005 at 19:20:30 Name: Lowell Burch Email: lburch3@cox.net Location: Wrapping Christmas gifts. OK, done. Comments: Terry's was the first used book store I ever went to. It
was a warehouse of books piled high. Consequently, I was surprised when I
got older and went into other used book stores and saw that they had their
books were on shelves and in order. Also, Terry's always carried a good selection
of current comic books.
As a kid, I often got my hair cut at the barber college on First Street.
The area was teeming with derelicts. In retrospect, I can't even believe
my mom would take me down there but I guess a fifty-cent burr haircut was
worth the risk.
December 23 2005 at 14:24:23 Name: Charles Location: Looking at Amity Comments: I remember going to what I assume was Terry's. My parents
love books. I grew up at the Sheridan Village and Downtown libraries. They
also liked going to used book stores. I remember going to two used book stores
in the Brady District.
If Terry's is the one I am thinking of, it was immense and there was no logical
order to it. It was a blast going there. I definitely remember seeing some
intersting people in the area. I also remeber that it was next to (or very
close to) the old Cozy Movie Theater. I remember walking by the theater and
wanting to see what it looked like back behind its boarded up front.
December 23 2005 at 14:09:54 Name: David Bagsby Email: dcbatsunflower.com Location: Lawrence KS Comments: Terry's Bookstore ruled! We went there as kids on Saturdays

It seems like a place called the Archer Bargain Box was in that vicinity.

I'm still in "Tulsa" Comments: Ironically, I was planning to go to Gardner's right after
lunch today. They have streamlined their trading policies, so it's a lot
easier to trade books there now. I just did a literary make-over on my library
and wiped out a good chunk of their rock'n'roll biographies and art books.
I'm looking forward to finding time to read them all in the next few months.
I remember hearing about Terry's bookstore back in the seventies, which I
believe was there on North Main, somewhere in the Brady District. I was heavily
into collecting National Lampoons and Mads at the time. I remember being
overwhelmed at the amount of books in the store (in practically no order
what-so-ever). My grandmother, who drove me there, was overwhelmed at the
amount of hobos that were passed out on the street in front of the store.
I was never allowed to go back (little did anyone know I would become a promoter
of the Brady District in a latter life).
Gardner's is like an orderly, much better smelling, version of Terry's, sans
hobos. And they also trade DVDs and CDs.
Does anyone else have memories of Terry's? Was it as raw an experience as
I remember, or was I just a mid-town kid freaked out by the downtown style?
I remember prostitutes jumping in front of cars to "flag them down" in that
area as late as 1985. I never heard of a fatality.

after all these years is just plain spooky. Major time-travel device!
I never noticed until re-hearing it just how much the instrumentation and
tempo are derivative of Gene Autry's "Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer." By
the way, they had several versions of the jingle over the years, set to the
same music. One of the most memorable, in the late sixties, went:
It's holiday time, time to be gay
Save on your gifts in a wonderful way
With a Merry Christmas value from OTASCO!
My friends and I snickered about that one at the time, since the definition
of the word "gay" had recently been expanded to mean a lot more than happy
and/or festive. That version continued for at least a year or two more, I
think, and then was changed to "It's holiday time, wonderful day."
The other thing I remember about OTASCO is that the old timers and good ol'
boys never called it that. It was always "Oklahoma Tar."
Well, I must go and don my, um - er - festive apparel.

dot com Location: The Boman Twin...HEY! WHO PUT THIS RECORD STORE HERE? Comments: I have a heartwarming Holiday story about a locally-owned
hard-working record store showing up a chain. I'll censor out the cussin'.
My friend McKenna gave me a used DVD from Vintage Stock II that, unfortunately,
I already owned. She bought it yesterday and she said they did not give her
a receipt, but the store's price tag of $17.98 was still on the disc. I have
literally spent and traded over couple of thousand of dollars worth of business
at the store over the last few years, so I figured taking it back and getting
something else would be no problem; WRONG!
Vintage Stock has recently changed hands from the original owner to a corporate
owner, which, one would presume, is why there is a change in the marketing,
a recent explosion of new store openings, an abundance of clerks who haven't
heard of Eric Clapton, and higher prices all around.
Because I didn't have a receipt, they basically accused me of lying and offered
me only half of the dollar amount, $8, in trade, which seemed like a disservice
to my friend's hard earned money. When I mentioned the amount of money I
spent there, I was told that they didn't care, because they had a store policy.
I went ballistic. In this case it was strictly the principle of the matter;
I'm sure McKenna wasn't interested in donating $8 to Vintage Stock for the
"pleasure" of shopping there.
Ironically, I gave McKenna a shirt that didn't fit from Hot Topics WITHOUT
THE RECEIPT, and Hot Topics (a corporate chain, no less) had no problem
exchanging it for her, as their tag was still on the item.
To make a long story short, I used an offensive word in the discussion, and
I was told to leave because they were a family store, which anyone can tell
by their wall of R and NC-17 movies, not to mention their gangsta rap section.
My final line in the store was a loud "#%*# ALL YOU NERDS!"
So I left and went to Rob's Records, in the Boman
Acres, and told the owners, Rob and Barbara, my story. When they got through
laughing, they gave me the full amount (owed to me by Vintage Stock!) in
trade in THEIR store, so I picked out another disc, and I and the friend
I was with bought $40 worth of merchandise, which is what we would have done
in Vintage Stock had they given me the full credit owed to me.
The moral of this tale is: support your local music store (or if you must
use a faceless giant, click through to Amazon.com through the Tulsa TV Memories
website). At 400 DVDs in my collection and another 600+ CDs, I'm a pretty
good account for a record store, and I'll be dealing with Rob's exclusively
for used items and collectibles (and thank Elvis that Starship is up and
running for the new stuff!). As my friend who was with me through the whole
ordeal said; "I wish I were into vinyl! I would have bought even more from
Rob's!"
If you have a problem with a store like Vintage Stock, talk to Rob or Barbara,
they would be glad to have your business.
Happy Holidays to all! And To all a good night!

I am glad Matt has reopened and I am sure the decor will change in time.
Matt was one of the best employers for Xmas gifts and bonuses to his small
staff - and a charitable giver to many more. The folks who painted his original
store murals are scattered to the wind - among them Jerry Pope who did the
rabbit motif many moons ago. Jerry is somewhere in NC doing "pageant
productions".
Xmas funny - I work in a so-called Christian firm which has just been handed
over to a UK-based religious group - yet we do news. Our secular management
staff gave all of us male staffers wine and Seagrams VO as Xmas present.
Hic! Where's the turkey?

I just found this free and downloadable

"A Case for Beer".
It's a cautionary film made for convenience store owners about underage alcohol
sales. Some of you may experience déjà vu when you see the
opening scene of a police flashlight shining on a car full of youths full
of beer.
It's a charming little slice of life in the early 70s. The acting is believable.
