I am on the way to Stillwater

I'm telling you, just go to Stillwater and campout. Just remember to find some tinder to start a fire and ward off any predators.
 
Another reason why Oklahoma sucks. You drive north of Dallas, you get stuff. you go north of OKC, you get Guthrie. Man, that blows.

I'm told that Guthrie was the landburglars' original capitol, and that the fine people of OKC raided the statehouse in the middle of the night and relocated it. Both have been ****** ever since.
 
Don't know if you've noticed, but if you stop in a Guthrie gas station, you'll find a bonanza of cheap 80's hair band CD's. I remember seeing a Great White "greatest hits" CD for 5 bucks at a Shell there.
 
Gracias, my friend. I will leave you all with the view from outside our Best Western doorway, a scene that reminded me of the Love Boat for some reason:

Viva the modern age. When I crossed through Oklahoma during my cross country treks this past summer, I had nothing but radio to keep me company. This was around the time of the Vick and NBA official stories, so listening to 18 hours of continuous and redundant coverage was an experience.

Oh, and if you get the chance to see a CD rack with some Quiet Riot or Twisted Sister, take a picture. I believe some of those Oklahoma gas stations have some of the finest hair band music libraries in the southwest.
 
Good morning hornfans, the Guthrie Best Western has wi-fi.

It's 10am, and I enjoyed the delicious continental breakfast. Pretty good biscuits, and eggs that were perfectly round and yellow. I don't think they've ever even seen the inside of a chicken, actually.

Yet to crack my first beer. Travesty.

But here's a gem, courtesy of the sweeeet lobby:

If you can't see it, that's a mural on the wall of some stampeding longhorns. Fate smiles upon us today, gentlemen.
 
we've now moved on to motown. aretha is making **** happen.

it's better than the bob seger that preceded her.

i do not have control over the cd player. i repeat. i have no control over the cd player.
 
now on oklahoma 51, headed to okie lite. or sand aggy. or whatever we're calling it now.

ok, now skynrd is plyaing. i feel like i'm hanging out in a muffler shop.
 
Ok, now we've gone from Sam and Dave to some crappy song that sounds like somebody trying to be John Hiatt. This CD is very hit ormiss. probably more miss. Jesus, what is this now, Petula clark?

this is not football music.
 
just passing the aggy stop convenience store by campus. some zydeco **** on the radio now. sometimes i don't think i'm related to my dad.

i will do my best to update throughout the day, thouhg i might be doing it from my treo.
 
now just left of us is the stillwater masonic lodge. no doubt they're behind the conspiracy to keep us from finding a parking spot.

oh, and kennedy. they're behind that too.
 
LOTS of "highway department orange" around here. And now we're back to the Masonic Lodge. This cannot be a coincidence.

Said in the car: "We should have bicycles. Then we could go right up to the stadium."

"Yes, but that'd take us a week to get from austin."
 
empty beer. i have now consumed 1.09oz per mile this morning. this disturbs me, because that doesn't seem like very much.
 
All right. We've parked on the North side of the stadium, I think, in some neighborhood that looks like it might be torn down or moved TODAY. Lots of empty lots. I'm not sosure about this.
 
There is an open manhole in the lot next to us. I mentioned that they probably should have come up with an alternate name for that.

It reminds me of the rasslin' museum, which we passed earlier, and this compromising concrete relief:

rasslin. emphasis on the '***-lin.'
 
beer number something something. this day will probably end with me in the travis county jail. yes, i know wer're like 500 miles from travis county.
 
Now we're back on Coors Light vs. Budweiser.

"Budweiser is the king of beers!"
"Yeah, but Pabst Blue Ribbon has been milking that one win for 100 years . Bud just used that as a marketing thing, just like Pabst"
"Dude, the King of Beers. It says so."
"That's just advertising"
"Then why don't they take it off their label?"
"What about Busch? Or Bud Light? Are those the Dukes of beers?"
 
Not a bad idea. Though i wouldn't recognize them if i saw them, and htere was a line around the block. I think we should try.

We're a about three blocks from the HF tailgate,probably will hit that first,.
 
still here on the street. if you're in the area, w'ere in the tailgate of a light colored Tahoe on the north side. I think.
 
headed to hronfans taiilgate. going onto the treo. wish me luck, hornfans.

BTHOOOSU!

will post frm the treo when i get a chance,.
