    Geological Provinces of Oklahoma

    Also on a side note,..... the Los Angeles basin in California has some of the largest oil & gas fields in North America. They pump so much water back under Long Beach because it would sink if they didn't replace all the fluid they are taking out. Go read about the Wilmington Field...

    Geological Provinces of Oklahoma

    I am a geologist and anyone with a scientific mind will say that the odds of oil & gas production (fracking, salt water disposal, waterflood fields, etc) being the cause of the earthquakes are very small. Like the poster said above,.. earthquakes are not new to this region. On the other...

    Forty Years of Post Nixon

    Nixon is STILL pissed that he lost to Kennedy in 1960. It probably worked out for the best,.. No doubt in my mind he would have launched a full strike to Khrushchev and the USSR in 1962.

    Rumsfeld on History Channel

    That documentary is called "The Fog of War" I think. It's been a few years but I never forgot how McNamara tried to rationalize the numbers game in a war. It was like he was playing the board game Risk,.. but with American lives. I remember not being able to sleep very well after watching...

    When did you guys finally grow up?

    My first real fire onboard ship while we were at sea. Had a Class Bravo fire in the bilge, somehow those guys caught the JP5 on fire and we had to put it out. I was #2 nozzleman and while I had been thru at least 50 fire drills,... nothing can make you pucker like the real thing at sea. You...

    Need Acoustic Duo/Trio Act

    Hi guys, I play guitar and play in a couple of bands. We play around Tulsa and OKC. Our KB/rhythm guitar player's wife was trying to set up an acoustic gig at a business for a couple of hours on July 4th in OKC. We are unable to play due to a scheduling conflict. Is there anyone out there...

    Nothing better than a Bon fire in the evening

    Very Nice!! Here was our sunset from south of Tulsa last night. My wife and I sat out there with a few drinks until dark listening to The Tedeschi-Trucks Band. Can't burn but we would if we could.

    Must do's in Colorado

    Terry, I have been to Skyline Drive. We spent two weeks mapping the Grape Creek area which is a southern extension of that Skyline hogback. If you look closely, you can see some dinosaur footprints up on top of Skyline. That is a great picture. Red Canyon is up north of town on Fourmile Rd...

    Must do's in Colorado

    And this is looking at the same canyon from up on top of Twin Mountain. This is looking northeast towards Pikes Peak,... it is just out of the frame on the right.

    Must do's in Colorado

    No sir. The OSU Geology Field Camp is out East of Canon City just like you say but it is on Upper Beaver Creek Rd. Phantom Canyon Rd is less than a mile to the west of it. It will take you all the way up to Victor and Cripple Creek. I guess when I say that the field camp is in Canon City...

    Musicians you like..but aren't played on mainstream radio.

    Been playing guitar for over 20 years and have really been impressed by new talent coming out these days. It's so hard to keep up with all the upcoming artists but I sure try. Here are a few I have grown to love over the last 20 years and are not on radio. So being a guitarist,.. these...

    Must do's in Colorado

    My thoughts exactly. I highly recommend driving Phantom Canyon Road. The OSU Geology Field Camp is in Canon City and one street East of Phantom Canyon Road. I spent 5 weeks there and loved it. That will take you from Canon City up through Victor and Cripple Creek and then to the backside...

    Best Place To See The Ocean

    I was born and raised in Los Angeles,.. basically Pasadena. I am pretty partial to Manhattan Beach because it's away from the tourist traps but close enough to Redondo Beach to have access to all that crap. I love the beaches in LA because the size of the sand you get. It's pretty amazing...

    24 live another day

    I thought it was a great start to a short season. Me and the fam have been waiting for almost 4 years for Jack to come back. Side note,.. looks like he's carrying an HK P30. Almost thought it was an HK 45C but the top of the slide was more rounded. Dang,.. I carry an HK 45C !! I could be...

    Conservative Activist Claims Women Paid The Same As Men Won't Find Husbands

    I think a woman who makes more than me is one of the most attractive things I can think of. I make pretty damn good money and my wife earns more than me by quite a bit. I love it that we are together because we want to be and not because we have to be. We'd be just fine if we were each living...

    Why do I live in Oklahoma?

    I grew up in Los Angeles, specifically Pasadena. Spent 18 years there before leaving. I've always said Los Angeles is a great place to be from. I had more opportunities to see and do things than most kids. My best friend from high school still lives in CA and loves it. I graduated, joined...
