    Hey, here's a good... one I'm going to post it on the TG&Y thread also. We have talked about the Easter Egg Drop in previous conversations. Well, one year the higher ups at TG&Y decided (74th & Penn) to DROP TURKEYS.....Yep, that's what I said...DROP TURKEYS for Thanksgiving. Thinking this would really be cool....Pen Raised Turkeys don't know how to fly very well....Some flew enough not to go "SPLAT" on the parking lot and some didn't.....Gosh, that was a mess..Turkey's were all over the neighborhood....And the Parking Lot.

    Or, how many of you guys from the Southside remember TG&Y (74th & Penn) having an outdoor Rodeo for 89ers Day???? that was fun....

    Hey, have you guys been catching the shows on PBS lately. "The Oklahoma I Remember" was nicely done and I kept thinking about you guys as I watched it. The music of the 50's and 60's, DooWop music, Elvis' gospel and others are coming up. check it out if you havn't done so already.

    One of the MOST noticeable prisoner of war camps in this area is located right off I-35 just north of Gainesville. you can see three (3) water towers from the highway on the West side of the road. Then, there is a small German town west on highway 82 by the name of Meunster, Texas.....Good....No GREAT German food in that town...Super nice people....

    Meunster Texas, has the best Pastry's around, little convenience store on southside of hi-way 82 just as you hit town is a combination service station, convenience store and pastry shop. Fischer's German Super Market has about the best meat you can buy. I once counted 16 people working in the butcher shop and meat counter. Try to get by there about twice a year......Lindsay, Tx just east of Meunster has the good German food....But then again, I don't like German food.

    It's is in Moore on South Sooner Road about 134th st. A little pricey but mega good. Old Style German food...If you like German food it's well worth the trip. In OKC there is one on N.W. 23rd/Council on the west side of the road in a strip center that is very good....

    Well worth the trip buddy....True Dark German beer...and German food...I think....after the beers it really doesn't matter.....No, it's really good. That is unique part of the country that a lot of people don't go into. Another GREAT place to eat is in a small Texas town (Ponder) just off I35W.....Like you're headed to Ft. Worth......About 6 miles S. of Denton and three miles west...Super great Steakhouse.......

    The place on N. Council is called Oma's. They serve sandwiches. I wasn't aware
    they served German food. It's more of a European grocery with canned food
    and candy.

    When did you eat there?
