Studebaker Dude

I credit my older sister Valerie with planting the Studebaker seed into my brain at a young age. The seed was a 1948 Studebaker Champion.

Budweiser was voted the popular Super Bowl commercial in a Sapulpa Times poll this week. And who do you think made that Budweiser wagon that the Clydesdale's pull? Why Studebaker, of course.

This weekend the Super Bowl LIX teams will be decided. The whole season has been narrowed down to the four teams still in contention through the post-season play-off games.

Last week I woke up early because it was forecasted to snow overnight. It wasn’t even sunrise yet but there was an awesome illumination in the sky awaiting another beautiful Oklahoma sunrise.

It is special that a significant emotional event that happened to me almost 10 years ago is now part of a gift that I will treasure for the rest of my days.

I never was a New Year's Eve party guy, and it's our first without Carlene's mom, but we decided to pay tribute by bringing in the new year with some Japanese traditions.

When the Sapulpa Times went paperless, I had to come up with another way of saving the stories and that was accomplished in the 2023 edition of “Been There, Done That”. Now that we're coming upon Volumne Two, what stories will be included?

Just a week away from Christmas 2024. We got the decorations up, we put the last of the packages to our loved ones in the mail and we got the majority of our shopping done. Not bad for a guy that has conflicting issues about this holiday.

I may only be in the "barely famous" category, but when kids take an interest in my classic cars, it makes me feel like a million bucks.

If you sang that title, then you must know the song. It was a big hit song for the Animals in 1965, and I was a mere 14 years old. Too young, perhaps, to fully appreciate the lyrics, but old enough to memorize the words and file them away.
