It may be TMI - if you mean too much information - but I can't stand it.Originally Posted by FRISKY
TMI...
Not even a little bit. I wouldn't let Soonergirl put a vibrator on my neck and I
think she's A-OK. That goes for Southsidegirl, too, and she's a babe!
All I want, when I go to a barbershop, is to get my hairs cut. That means
both of them. Don't rub my neck and never use a vibrating device of any
kind, whatsoever, on any part of my body!
ACCK!

Yeah....hey do you guys (I'm sure you do) remember where brittain brothers used to be????? how about Consolidated Wholesale?....Henthorn Trucking....How about where the original Tener's store was? what did Ray Tener specialize in in sales?
Re: What old business do you remember in OKC?
I drove one of my favorite thugs to Brittain Brothers. He gave me $2 for my
trouble. Man, I was irate because I couldn't get to Woolworth's in time to
grab a hot dog and fries.
Who gives a rip about Tenner's? All they had was cowboy hats. At any rate,
I believe Tenner's was in Packin' Town.

I worked at Brittain Brothers on Western. I can't remember what they were called but we all had this piece of wood with a wheel on the back and front which were stationary. Had a straight vertical board that was topped by handlebars. On the front was a box that worked as a basket. You would go upstairs and would be given an order to fill. Skate all over that building to get the parts to complete the order. Taken to the back where the women would make sure it was correct. Box it. Tape the order to the carton for delivery.

That sounds like a lot of work! I thought about working once. I decided to
become a musician, instead. Still am. It's a good living, but so is being a
plumber in January.

I went to the Stockyards Coliseum with my Grandmother on Friday nights for Championship Wrestling! You knew it was scripted but it resembled somewhat true wrestling. "Goodnight! And watch out for flying chairs!"

Wasn't that Danny Williams line at the end of WKY Wrasslin'? My Dad was a
champion wrestler and wouldn't let us watch it. I thought it was cool. We'd
watch it when Mom and Dad went out of town. The babysitter didnt know
any better. Unlike most of my friends, we didn't need a baby sitter after I
turned 20. Dad couldn't watch it for entertainment. I wrestled in Jr. High and
High School.
Musicians don't wrestle in college.

Hey, that's a good question. He came home really late a couple of times
every week...
You might be right!
Come to think of it... at times he acted like one of the Medics or both of the
Assassins! He may have been Junkyard Dawg!

Re: What old business do you remember in OKC?
Okay people! I have a question that is a subject that most of the older members know. I had forgotten about it until I saw it mentioned on one of these threads.
Here goes. Was there really a bordello known as Jessie's? As a kid and through teenage years it was alluded to by other "kids" but I don't think I ever heard it from the adults. Now the adults talked about the Black Hotel. Ever hear anything similar about the Black?
