I think my ex-wife has them. When she sits around the house she really sits around the house.
Used to call her my Big Legged Emma.

Theres a big dilemma
About my big leg emma, uh-huh, oh yeah

I need your help. Does anyone in OKC know, or have a lead to locate, Jerry Adams. He was a popular OKC TV news anchor during the 70s and 80s. I am writing a book on Tulsa music, and during the late 50s and early 60s, he was part of the Tulsa music scene...even recorded a record. If you have any info on him, please email me at: blackwellt at ahec dot edu. Thanks. Teb.

If it's the same Jerry Adams you might contact KMOA. Ronnie Kaye or Fred Hendrickson. They have been on air forever. The Jerry Adams I am aware of was a news caster for WKY T.V. now KFOR in okc. Someone, like Bob Barry Sr. would know. Another oldie doing t.v. commercials now is Danny Williams. If you don't get info from one of these people it's a lost cause. Wish I could give you a number or more info. Good Luck..................

I know it's been brought up before but I remember watermelon was a big deal. We had watermelon feasts (we called em) after ball games after church and after almost any group function. The watermelon place on S.W. 59th & Kentucky was owned by a friend of mines Dad, last name Hunt. Also remember a watermelon place at S.W. 44th & Portland. We had alot of watermelon feasts at Golf Acres. Man I'am gonna go get me some watermelon right now.

At the 74th st.
TG&Y we used to have a yearly watermelon feast..Everyone was invited but, we normally waited til the last of July as we were trying to drum up business before Back to School. Sidewalk sales, Rodeoes and Free Watermelon. I would have a farmer from Rush Springs bring up a 16 ft trailer full of the melons and the feast and contests would begin....Talk about a mess to clean up.....But a good time was had by all.....We need to have a watermelon meeting before the summer is over.....What do you guys think?????

I always loved the yellow meated. Of course I loved them all.

How about the homemade ice cream? Usually vanilla but at times we added fruit; strawberries, peaches, my favorite blackberries. Anyone under 30 should have to hand-crank one gallon.

Blackberries? Anyone go picking' blackberries (other than my dad and I)?

... We need to have a watermelon meeting before the summer is over... What
do you guys think?

Sounds good to me, as long as there are plenty of napkins.

A watermelon feast sounds good. Maybe an extra meeting than the saturday meeting. I know I have only attended three but our group is a lot of fun.

If I could possibly be there I would gladly crank the ice cream for a short photo shot then plug in the new fangled electric crank.

Was crankin' ice cream mentioned? Too much vigorous exercise could
diminished my Atlas-like figure, and you've all see what an awesome
spectacle it is.

I'm all for the electric cranker, or somebody else.
