    Re: Boardwalk at Bricktown / Dream Hotel

    So because Ackerman had an idea that didn't come to fruition until 20+ years after he proposed it, and it wasn't even implemented by him, we should cut Matteson some slack? That's an odd argument.

    Wow, I was really trying to give you the benefit of the doubt, hoping I misunderstood your message, but I guess you actually were trying to be a d*ck.

    Serious question... Are you saying you were mocking my visceral reaction to seeing a slur on a menu? Or am I misunderstanding the intent of your sarcasm?

    This comes off as very condescending, although maybe that wasn't your intent. I'm not going to read "japchae" and associate it with an ethnic slur, so I think I can handle going to a Korean...

    I'm excited this is finally open. My wife and I love the food.

    One complaint though is their use of the word Jap as a shortened form of jalapeno. I'm half Okinawan and had the slur "Jap" hurled...

    The Berry Rock proposal doesn't seem to include any plans for the lot on the other side of Walnut. Why bother submitting a proposal at all if you're going to exclude that lot from your plans?

    Pete, I believe the Autozone is being built on the SE corner of the intersection. The latest question from old okie was about the NW corner. Maybe he/she made a mistake however.
