I don’t get much of an opportunity to watch the NFL these days, and I knew the Colts were having an “off” year (to put it politely), but, damn, I see the Saints dropped 62 points on them yesterday. Cool. And the Lord Almighty led Denver to a victory over The Fish, using Timmy Tebow as His instrument. Seems God was wearing His orange and blue this weekend. Let’s hope He keeps it from now right through ’til March Madness (which ends in what, April these days?).
But, alas, the weekend is over and it’s time to go back to work again. No more long weekends planned for me until Thanksgiving. That sucks.
Billboards aside, the Internets say George Beauchamp (though multiple people were working on it), and he appears to hold the patent – #2,089,171. I think Oklahoma needs to quit buying their textbooks from Texas.
Early day – time to go.
I was fixing to write something pithy how pj could catch up on his sleep by watching Bronco Timmy lead Tebo nation into the wilderness on the strength of over-thrown passes and dropped balls but son-of-a-bitch if he didn’t find his way to the promised land.
Of course next week could be different: they’ll have to play an actual professional football team when the orange Christian will be thrown to the Lions. :priest: :satan:
So is the Dunn electric steel guitar different than the one Beauchamp invented?
But wait! Wiki may have the “answer.” Dunn was the first to record on it.
I went through grade 3 in Oklahoma. Back then, we were taught French in grade school. I very much remember when bussing started post Brown v. Board of Education. We all stood around and watched the kids get off the bus. My parents had no tolerance for racism, however. I recall going to a soda fountain with my mom where they refused service to some black folks. My mom made us leave, too, and we never went back.
“That’s just the way it is,†Bachmann said. “But usually what we have are charitable organizations or hospitals who have enough left over so that they can pick up the cost for the indigent who can’t afford it.â€
She added: “Once ‘Obamacare’ is gone, this is what we have to do.“

As far as electric guitars I personally don’t have a dog in that race- I was convinced by a Les Paul documentary I saw a few years ago that he had invented it.
Reading OKat’s Wiki link I’m more confused than ever.
Kind of sorry I thought I knew what i was talking about 😳
