California, he was prosecuted for man slaughter for failure to maintain his properties I believe that was in an article from the Oklahoman
He is supposedly forbidden from owning apts in California now......so Oklahoma has him:fighting3

Back in the day the SW corner of 29th and Sooner was a go-cart tack. Behind the track was the private neighborhood pool for Del Aire. SE was the riding stables for Tinker. The NW was always empty. The NE had a Kerr Mcgee and behind it was the Sooner Twin drive in.

Are you talking about the pool that was named Tempo? Or something like that?

great article in the Oklahoma about just that location. It was in the Friday East sectionDilapidated apartment complex draws complaints | NewsOK.com (http://www.newsok.com/dilapidated-apartment-complex-draws-complaints/article/3467705)

:congrats:

Funny how at the beginning of the video, you can see the other abandoned complex across the highway in one of the frames.

Well,
I see the ON CUE has opened for business. One one been in there yet?\Gotta go try the gas

Not quite open yet. Those are the people working inside and landscaping outside. The way they parked their cars is very deceitful.

I see you're on top of current events as usual Thunder. It's open went there last night and this morning. One stop shopping for gas, ice, sodas, soft serve ice cream, corn dogs and sausage gravy from a dispenser! Okie heaven.

Joking and jabbing aside, I really hope we get more and more of these. They are run very well, have a great selection, nice restroom, drive thrus and I love the covered parking lots.

I was there yesterday, they had yellow tapes closing off the entrances...

Are they as clean and nice as QT's? OKC needs better, cleaner convience stores. Our QT's in the DFW area are so clean, pleasant employees and selection is great! The 7-11's in the OKC are not the greatest. Maybe OnCue will raise the bar for 7-11 or Circle K?

Maybe they saw you coming! They were open by 5pm because I got gas and my 3rd 44oz diet soda of the day (my only vice and I can't seem to break it).

I personally think they are the nicest c-store chain I've even been in. The thing 7-11 has going for it is its long standing in the community and the fact they don't take up nearly as much room as an On Cue. I'd bypass a 7-11 or local foreign owned dirty c-store to get to an On Cue. Never tried the drive through before. Anyone know if they do fountain refills in the drive through?

Maybe they saw you coming!

This is hilarious. They opened at 6AM on Friday.

Yep, the metro area OnCue's are along the same model as QuikTrip. QT can't build in OKC because of the 7-Eleven stores. Same reason there are no 7-Eleven's in Tulsa. (The metro 7-Eleven's are not part of the National 7-Eleven group.) OnCue was genius to build their stores the way they did here in the metro area.

Just because there was a "mutual" agreement between 7-11 and QT does not mean they can not enter each other's market areas.

OnCue is better than QT, but QT has more pastries while OnCue features donuts from Krispy Kreme.

For some people there is this pesky little thing called their word - there was a time that a person's word meant more to them than anything else. Doesn't mean much to some people.

well I bought gas there this afternoon..........so I guess its official

Are those two men still in business...executive/owner of these companies? If not, then no need to keep their word.

You never cease to amaze Thunder. And, yes, as far as I know Chester Cadiuex of QT is still alive and has always honored the agreement.

Still alive, but is he still an active executive/owner? That is a question you failed to answer.

Oh Thunder, you never cease to amaze me with your way with words. I'm guessing people interaction is not your strong point.

Do you want an ice cream? I can special deliver one to you.

I do! FroYo please! LOL

Oh, I hear that the OnCue on 29th and Douglas has the by the ounce stuff like Pink Swirl only you don't have to deal with the rude owners.

I know they do at the new location at SW 29 and Sooner Rd. Yeah nothing like topping your soft serve with toppings that have been sitting in the open air while who's knows what was poking around in it. They might as well have just set it up in the men's room.

As for Pink Swirl - we go to the MWC one all the time. The employees and owner are always very nice when we are there. Same with the Peach Wave in Bricktown.

Well the day when the prego lady told my wife that if she was allergic to shellfish that she probably just shouldn't eat there in the most snotty rude tone you can imagine, was the day we were done with the place. Especially since the other 10 times we told them the same thing, they were more than happy (like all the other sushi places in the world) to make it work. The stupid cow face also said she "wasn't sure what we expected her to do about it". We were dumbfounded to say the least.

Too bad there isn't another sushi place in MWC that doesn't suck.

Yeah, there's nothing like the look on the face of someone who reads the "39 cents per ounce" sign and doesn't realize they've got $5 worth of yogurt and toppings until they check out. He didn't argue, but the look of shock was pretty apparent.

ouch, now that would suck big time..............thanks for that tip

Don't think of your soda as a vice. Think of your 44 oz drinks as disposable hand weights.

Sorry, I laugh when I see people do that. It's like, "im on a diet, so I'll take the light one", then they pile a pound of candy and crap on it. The low fat stuff doesn't work if you eat twice as much as you would have before.

I'll take a big mac, large fries, apple pie....on and a diet coke. I'm on a diet. < - sure ya are.
