Southside OKC Memories....anyone?

[SE-76]

My true feeling is "Welcome to My Nightmare"! Least that's the way I see it.

BUT!!

It was probably "Catch Scratch Fever" , which is a nightmare within itself

actually was long train runnin by the doobies. might have been the only
song that wasn't on frampton comes alive that they played that year.

[Generals64]

Definitely a Safeway store. As was Jude'nJody's place before it burned down and they rebuilt to the building they are in now....

I knew the Bob Mills was a Safeway but it's funny because I grew-up three blocks from where Jude and Jody's is and went by there for a couple of years walking to Lee School and never remember it being a Safeway. I know on the southwest corner of 29th and Walker was a Sinclair Station, S.E. corner was Lee school and n.e. corner was a "new" car dealer Bolen Olds (?).Just don't remember a Safeway. Maybe because we went to Humpty Dumpty on Commerce and Walker.
Were there any Piggly Wiggly's in the city?

Yes on the Safeway....Jude and Jody had a tragic fire and the building burned to the Ground....Late 60's early 70's. Both of them used to work for the original Mathis Brothers on Western. Piggly-Wiggly in Oklahoma used to be just like convenient Stores today. they were original serviced by Allied Foods and they wouldn't let them come into this market as there were too many family Grocery stores in the OKC market and since Allied was the Mother Shape for Humpty Dumpty at that time....

Was it Evans on Western just across the river? And were they called "Big Red" at one time? Seems that had a cannon on their commercials. Can't remember the spokesmans name either.

Are you referring to Larry Evans?

[USG '60]

I think the cannon came as part of the change of locations. "a revolution is coming."

A free trip of Fly fishing with you and the Prunette. He is to drive to where you are and you are to show him a wonderful time and cook him all the trout (both of them) that you catch this next week....O. K.?...Rumor is though the Papa is next on the liter board for "Dancing with the Stars". We have to get behind him and support by calling 1-866-BR549 and get the votes in before Simon Cowell puts him on American Idol with Tatianna and she starts crying over him...."I don't Know." Hope you guys are having a great time......By the way, your Credit Card was denied at Coit's and Rickster and Steve are still over there washing the plastic Plates....Southside girl is having to be a Car Hop...Bowtie guy is cleaning the Parking lot and Frisky is still trying to explain to coit's that YOU told us it was good. I got out of there early with Doug and MMM and help them find the refinery.....See what you have been missing?????and the Missus General64 said don't forget the brochures....See ya next time:...........Generals64......
