I've asked about this place before and gotten no reply Does anyone remember Moore's Little Mexico restaurant E. of I-35 and N. of 19th? It was some good Mex.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I remember it but, it didn't last very long. That would be quite a drive for you for Mexican food. I'm sure there are some good places around Memphis and that way you could afford to eat more. However, if you come back home let me know and I'll take you to the Mexican spot in Moore...

Where did you come up with Memphis? I don't even like to drive thru Memphis. Now what is the name of the Mexican spot you speak of back home?

well, i was going to recommend Maria's in Moore but the NEW Ricky's Restaurant out did itself. Also, The new Alfredo's is coming on strong....So, I guess we'll have to try them both...Huh????

If you want good Mexican food go to Los Amigos on about 40th and
N. MacArthur. It's very good. Make that GREAT! Tex-Mex rules
and authentic drools.

Prunette and I like Nino's on NW Expressway twix Mac and
Rock. When they're on there isn't a Tex-Mex that can touch it.

Ted's Escondido is fair. I'm not a big fan of Ted's. Make that sort of fair.

Authentic Mexican stinks. I want the cheese and the chili!

I hope I wasn't wishy-washy. I like to be direct.

Still would pay plenty to have another meal at El Charritos.

All the Mex joints y'all mentioned (except Nino's which I like and El Charritos which rules) are knew to me because I haven't been to the center of the universe (OKC) in about 15 years. When I make it back (And I will) I'all have to check em all out and make some of the monthly meetings.

LaLuna's on Walker and Reno is to bad. My favorite was Tullio's on 33 and South Robinson but they are no longer there.

I believe there is a Tullio's in Norman

Tulio himself is still around and i saw a place just here recently that said Tulio's....Let me think and figure it out...

And if he can't figure it out, like all General's he'll make something up.

But I have a suprise for him.......

Anything you can do,
I can do better.
I can do anything
Better than you.

No, you can't.
Yes, I can. No, you can't.
Yes, I can. No, you can't.

Sooner or later,
I'm greater than you.

Hey my long haired friend, don't give away all my secrets....By the way, the mrs. General has made me go on a diet thanks to you talking about my jeans being too small...Some pal...I thought maybe I had a friend from Capitol Hill.
Now, about Tulio's...there was one in Norman but, I think I saw a sign (maybe or probably was closed)...however, I'm going to find this if it kills me. You know, the Glen's Hikry Inn sign still stands on n.w. 10th and May.....
Speaking of finding something....I found an aluminum Bazaark Helmet...I'll bring it next time.....

If I remember correctly, (but Probably not) the Tuilio's was off I-35 on the Main street exit by the mall. It still wasn't as good a the original one on S Robinson

Yee-haw My southside girl friend has changed my mind. there is still a Tulio's sign peering though on 33rd and Robinson. and yes, he used to have the best mexican food around. There used to be aplace on south western (Old Muffler shop building) called Aquascaliente (Hot Water);...they really had good food....they had a buffet and you could get one side was tru Mexican food (cloves etc.) and the other was Tex-Mex and it was great to mix to two....their gone...

Here is the location for Tulios in norman

Tulio's Mexican Restaurant
(405) 579-1200
1000 E Alameda St, #128, Norman, OK 73071

I didn't know they made Bazaark "helmuts." Is it a milk bucket with eye holes?

You can at times find Glen's items on eBay. Matches, cups, glasses.......

In '76 was working with a guy doing construction. There were 3 of us. We were working in the area so the boss takes us to Glen's for lunch Dec. 23. kind of a Christmas gift. The boss got a steak and we two peons ate the buffet.
Later into the spring we were doing an A frame south west of New Castle. At that time in the boonies.
Don't think they have found the body to this day....

I mean! It was a good looking A frame inside and out.................

Gotta take my pill...............

I didn't either....found it (with original box) at a Garage Sale....asked "How much?"...is a buck too much? naw, I'll take it.... I'll bring it next meeting...It looks like it might have been a space helmet or something but, it looks like Bazaark himself.....Pretty neat for a dollar....the factory box is probably worth a buck....

Looking at the picture, Bazaark was on the right. Danny Williams was 3-D Danny a spaceman of the future and his side kick was a robot by the name of Bazaark. The show was popular from about 1953 or 54 until somewere in the late fifties or early sixties.....The robot is in a museum here in OKC somewhere along with 3-D Danny's costume....

It was to bewilder Gen78.

How many Sambo's in OKC made the change to Denny's?

Not sure but I know the one at 23rd & Meridian didn't.

I haven't rummaged through this post in a while, but does anyone know what happened to Buerger Brothers?

Jack Patton wasw his name. He was very good and very precise when he put exhaust on your car. Generals 70, you used to work for his Older brother at Central Fixture.....You can put together the first name. Jack passed away some time back. I remember V&H Muffler when then used a chain Hoist and pick your car up off the dirt floor to do the Muffler work. That undoutedly was the place to have "Glass Packs" put on your car...

Cnetral fixture Co.:....This was originally the maintenance company for TG&Y and Central Sales Co. Central Sales Promotion Co. was where all of the promotional banners, signs etc. came from...their last location was on N.W. 50th St. Central fixtures was the company (division of TG&Y) that made sure of fixturing etc. for the stores as they were being opened. They ended up on Broadway in Edmond and that was where the fixtures were buildt and distributed throughout the country. If you'll look at a Hobby Lobby store their fixturing was and is basically like TG&Y. Gen70 worked for Central fixtures for quite some time and if he reads this he can probably give us a more indept description...

Does anyone remember the man repaired fountain pens and lighters? He may
have done some other repairs but pens and lighters was his occupation. He
had an office in the Municipal Auditorium. It's hard to believe someone could
make a living like that but he did. There was a write up about him in the
Daily Oklahoman in the mid 60's, I think.

Yes, I do remember that but it was so long ago I had forgotten. I think he also repaired like Electric Razors and small electrical items. But, he was extrememly good at what he did. If my memory isn't playing a trick on me the guy moved his shop to about1`13th an N. May Ave after they began remodeling the Civic Center....

Your info sounds right. The first remodel was @ 1968 or 69. It was after
the Steppenwolf concert.

What's your company/business?

Is that a legal question

There was an auto parts store locally owned and operated. Save Auto? At least in 1960's and into the '70's.

Anyone remember?

There were several Save Auto's in town. There was one just south of Grant
where I bought cheap oil and one on NW Expressway just west of McArthur.

I bought a Cal Custom T shifter knob. It never stayed on.

Went to junior high with the founder/owner/etc's daughter. She went to high school in Moore because of the busing.

Their offices was off of I35 and about S.E. 75th.

Do you remember when they closed? Was it in the mid to late '70's?

Hey, is the old Eldorado motors wtill in business over by the feed mill???? 2020 S. Robinson....

It was 2020 Used Cars when I was kid. But the lot is empty and for rent.

A guy that I went to school with bought a car from one of those lots down there. It was south of the feed mill. He got it home and then was going to show it off. Rear axle lost what fluid it had from the car lot to his house. They may have even put sawdust in there I don't remember. It did not work is the point.

Is Eldorado's still in business? They had a lot near s.w.29th and Kentucky. May drive by to see Friday.
