I watched OK News Report on Fri evening, the OETA/PBS local channel, who hosted the gubenatorial debate between Munson and Mazzei.

Towards the end of the show about 15 mins were devoted to a discussion of the debate between one of the mods and Shawn Ashley, owner of Quorum Call ( a legislative tracker and publisher of OK Legislative report); and David Griffin, CEO of Griffin Media. Ashley was more restrained in his comments, Griffin was not. Griffin made a point of thanking OETA for hosting the debate and said it was a shame it was the only debate this close to an election and that one candidate would not participate in any more of them. He did not name names but it is Mazzei who won't. He also said that much of the legislative leadership was for Drummond. I found his comments very interesting.

Have you seen this one? Nuvaxovid for covid?

I saw this for the first time today. It is idiotic and no cohesion of elements. Just FYI, if you get a flu shot , covid vax, whatever, put topical biofreeze on site for two days. I discovered this last year. Works like a charm.

Some of my favorite scenes and what are yours?

I am about to wrap up my 4th time watching. I will be sad to say goodbye until next time.

Mark in the elevator with shooter.

Carter in Benton's appy surgery. (the jazz hands slay me)

Benton in Carter's surgery, so much there.

Benton getting Carter in the van. I ugly cry every time. Every time.

Kerry finding her mother. Watching her mom rehearse the hymn and that was such a perfect choice in music. Just As I am, I come. TO me it showed hypocrisy of religion.

David Krumholtz who played Paul Sobriki

I thought he played an undiagnosed schizophrenic patient so incredibly well it was almost scary.

I am rewatching the part of season 6 where all of it happens and man...

Edit-- when he returns in I think it's S8 and Carter's reaction, can you imagine? I mean what would your reaction be as well?

Doug and the child with end stage ALD.

This was a terribly difficult episode to watch from an ethics standpoint. But the hospital cannot not afford the liability of Doug and his cowboyishness, no hospital could. What did you think about this episode?

Valentine's Day Party

I've seen this multiple times but I have to stand up and walk around when it's on. I was driving a bit back and this song came started playing on someone's radio in the lane next to me and I had to get out of there fast. I can't breathe. On another thread a bit back, someone posted the same music was used in a Sopranos episode, which I guess I blocked out. I know it would be bad. Does anyone else have the same reaction? This was such a fabulous episode, but my God, so hard to watch!

Peter Benton

I'm watching this show again ( watch it every other year). I think Peter is incredibly self-centered. Yes, he had a fondness for Carter, and finally respect, but I think initially his fondness for Carter derived from his guilt over Gant. ANyone agree?

If we have bitterly cold weather this winter

I won't say a word. I will put on more clothes. To help me feel cooler I have watched the Everest movie, I watch the brown bears catch salmon at Katmai ( where the fat bear contest is held) and Tongass, both viewable at explore.org. I was in Alaska just a few years ago. Our ABNB was on Auke Cove in Juneau, right on the water. Our two decks had gorgeous views. THis was in August. 55 degrees in the morning. Eagles, 75 foot sitka spruce. Orcas spyhopping. Oh I miss that so much.

What from your childhood snacks, lunches or dinners do you no longer eat, because you can't anymore, or it is now unsafe?

I miss a fried bologna sandwich, fried chicken, and those graham crackers with cinnamon and sugar made into a little sandwich snack with butter in between.

Red Pepper Feta Dip.

I have just discovered this. Holy cow is this good. This is better than the hot feta sauce Sprouts sells in their gyro kits.

Ugh st judes lady is just too much

She dabs at no tear that I can see on one eye after uttering "when your child loses their hair."

THAT is the thing that you are crying about? That? Lady, contact sports teams, other orgs and they will send you cool hats for your kid for free. The hair loss is the least thing to be concerned about.
