Picker do you all get little hammers and those benches with the pegs you beat down in a worksop?

:tiphat:

I grew up on Southside and went to Grant in the 60’s. I have so many great memories but I haven't seen in any post about A.A.A.drive-in on S.W.59th and Penn. or Across the Street restaurant. Does any one else remember the great times we had cruising 59th between these two Grant hangouts? I don’t know who owned these places but I would like to thank them for allowing us to hang out inside all evening without even ordering. That wouldn’t happen today.

Debbie1969, Debbie1969, Debbie1969...

We've spent many hours discussing these wonderful hang outs. Obviously,
you are a rookie on this tread. 1 POST!

Are you ready for a total shock? We are currently hanging out with grads
from South East. No kidding. It's great! You need to attend our monthly
meeting, which the youthful Soonergirl26 arranges so I can't attend, and
meet some wonderful people and share what's left of your memory.

Beware of Gen64! I don't know why, it just seems like good advice.

Hey, do you remember anyone by the name of Norma Jean B? The last
name is not used in order to protect her.

Yes Debbie We talked about across the street restaurant a few pages back, it was a great place with the old juke box......and goooood spaghetti!

Does anyone remember the old Antioch Club on S.W. 119th & May?

Does anyone remember the old Antioch Club on S.W. 119th & May?

There's an Antioch Academy out there. Can't say I've every heard of that
club.

Has the get together been changed or is it on March 21?

Not that I've noticed...

It appears that I'm the only southsider that's alive after 12:30 am...

Gen64, that's real early in the morning...

Frisky, it's later than you think...

Soonergirl26, it's... never mind...


:LolLolLol:LolLolLol:LolLolLol:LolLolLol


does lol mean little old lady? I've never figured this out...

Mr. Picker! I received a PM where someone informed me that they knew we were related! Did you tell them. They even knew that Prunette cooked supper for the four of us the other evening! Does this mean the "GiG" is up! Hope not, Gen/64 will probably Kill both of us.....cya

According to my relatives nobody is related to me...

I don't know him/her, either, but I haven't racked what's left of my brain.

Now, from out of no where, someone begins to rattle MY Cage and then he says he is related to one of my buddies and I am beginning to try and figure out which direction I'm coming from. All I would really like to know is who this character is so I can begin returning his favor back to him...

good to see you back Frisky

There's an Antioch Academy out there. Can't say I've every heard of that
club.
yeah! I think it's some kind of a country dance get together joint now or something!! May be a church related facility, I'm not sure...

It beats me.

Here's my take on the mystery man......

I'm really thinking it is a plant from within, one of you guys...or someone close to you that you are working with to pose as him to rattle our brains. He knows too much about us girls on a current basis....not in high school. So time for you to fess up.....

~~~

Antioch Christian Church is there.....but down the street to the east is a VFW hall (blue building) that has dances every Saturday night. Could that be it?

I agree whole heartedly!! Get in there and fess up you no good so in so's!! I think I know who you are too!! Speaking of which, that Rickster guy is just slick enough and smart enough to pull something like this off, and lets not forget ol' Gen/70 sitting over on the east coast laughing at us! How about Frisky, he plays the innocent by-stander! I'm starting to doubt my own BEING!! HmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmAnd you, Soonergirl, what part do you play in this little caper, huh?????

A conspiracy! I like that!

Could this be something like stalking? I hope not.

Maybe, JUST maybe, he's not a HE!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully, I'm the detective trying to close in on the case....narrowing down the likely suspects.

Maybe, JUST maybe, he's not a HE!!!!!!!!!
But then again, as long as Prunette can keep frying chicken like she did the other night I don't think it matters!! Who knows more than you whether he's a HE or a SHE????? Just remember Prunester.. If I go down, your going with me!!

Redskins/General,

Not funny. Not funny at all.

Maybe, JUST maybe, he's not a HE!!!!!!!!!

If he's not a HE and is actually a SHE...then it's the wife of one of you guys or a female friend you've hired and are feeding information to so you can mess with us.... LOL!!!

I thought the Southeast crowd hung out at 'The Spot' on Western?

That was Capitol Hill's Spot!

HOOORAY were back open for business!

That was Capitol Hill's Spot!

was good meeting you today papa

Since "they" were nice enough to re-open this thread, the least we can do is stay on topic.

I will make a new thread for the frivolous banter that has to be said, but doesn't fit into any of the regular nostalgia threads. (The thread Generals64 was going to make, but didn’t…) :)

The get together was another great success. The last of us left around
5:30pm.

Coit's has been good to us.

OH MY GOD!!! I just saw this message on another thread! Someone else is attempting to put a stop to the frivolous banter!
"Frivolous Banter" Is that a boxing weight or a fighting cock?

O.K. , we've got to stay on topic so, the first thing I remember about OKC southside was my parents buying one of the GI houses and moving us up from Ardmore...I was in the first Grade at John Adams and my bedroom had Cowboy and Indians on the Wall Paper...First time I had a room of my own....We moved in there just in time for Halloween and My mom (first grade now) fixed me up as a hobo and my sister as a princess and let us go Trick or Treating...Couldn't do that now....I was so excited......but so darn scared....but you know, my big sister...(9 years old) could whip anyone.....See ya next time:...........

My family has been in the Capitol Hill area since the '40's. My folks moved back to the Hill when I was starting the 3rd grade. For the 3rd and 4th grade I went to Sacred Heart. Only had to walk a block to and from school (uphill both ways). First time I had a teacher who was not a nun!

What about the school carnivals at Halloween. Heronville used to have them, back when you could go all over the neighborhood trick or treating

That must have been pretty popular wall paper, my niece just moved from a rent house that had the exact same wall paper still in the closet.

WAKE UP!! You asked who else went to Columbus! I said Columbus went to Columbus. Not me. I'm sorry. Now I see grantgeneral78. Comments like I made are too deep for you to understand.:congrats:

Now, while they were building Arthur just off Independence, they sent the kids to Herronville until the school was finished. I was in the 2nd grade and shared a room with the 3rd grade kids...Our teachers name was Miss Nancy Stump later Mrs. Meeks (still hate the guy who married the love of my life at the time). We started at Arthur after Christmas Break. I can remember going to school in Heronville and the room being in a basement....Miss Stump probably was a playboy model I'm sure....even though there wasn't a Playboy....Childhood Crushes....I remember Our room was right by the Cafeteria and the smell was wonderful....I don't think anyone could make as good of Yeast rolls as they baked....But fish sticks on Friday meant I was taking my lunch......Do you know what you could get for a bologna sandwich on Fridays????many Comic Books traded hands during that time...the other guys weren't smart enough I guess to convince their mom into making them Two (2) sandwiches cut in half....3 Comic Books....Yee haw....and then I got Lucky, Miss Stump (now mrs. Meeks) became my 3rd grade teacher.....See ya next time>>>>>

What limb or appendage was Miss Stump without. If it were a leg today she could be a waitress at IHOP!! :LolLolLol

... they sent the kids to Heronville until the school was finished.
... I remember Our room was right by the Cafeteria and the smell was
wonderful... I don't think anyone could make as good of Yeast rolls as they
baked...


That's where I went to school while they were building Hillcrest Elementary.

Man, those yeast rolls were the best! I'll never forget this evil teacher on
cafeteria duty made me sit down and eat my spinach. As soon as she got
out of sight I quickly dumped the spinach and ran to the playground.



... Miss Stump probably was a playboy model I'm sure...

NO WAY she could hold a candle to Miss Crowell. Come to think of it, she's
probably close to 80. Help! I just realized that I'm thinking that an 80 year
old woman is a babe! Come to think of it, I think the same thing about
Maureen O'Sullivan (Jane). Is anyone of this list in the movies?



But fish sticks on Friday meant I was taking my lunch... Do you know what
you could get for a bologna sandwich on Fridays?

Fish on Fridays was a given. It was nice to know what was coming up!

Speaking of baloney samiches... When ever I smell the diesel from a bus
I smell a baloney samich. It happened when I was on the bus from
Heronville to home. For some reason I didn't eat my baloney samich and it
was a hot day. The smell of baloney and diesel has become one of those
childhood memories that returns quite often.
