Phillip Rowell

Phillip Rowell was named Special Needs Driver of the Year.
Mr. Rowell is a Special Needs Driver and Paraprofessional at Rector Johnson Middle School in Broken Bow. Rowell's selection was announced at the State Superintendent's Conference on Transporting Students with Special Needs in Oklahoma City on October 16. Only one special needs driver in the state receives the award each year. Mr. Rowell received a trophy, a letter of commendation and a $100 check from the Q'Straint Corporation.

Some of you probably wonder what's so great about this award. I mean he's just driving a bunch of kids around, how hard can that be? I've watched Mr. Rowell at his job. A lot of these students are in wheelchairs and some have tubes going this way and that. You ever tried picking up a kid and a wheelchair 30 times a day while keeping tubes from getting tangled? It's hard and it's exhausting. But he does it and never complains. He's as strong as a bull, but when he's with these kids, he's as gentle as a teddy bear. Being a Special Needs Driver is so much more than just driving. It's driving, caring, feeding, worrying, listening, cheering, lifting and exhausting.
This is a Special Award for a Special Man who does a Special Job for some Special Kids.

Congratulations Phillip Rowell!

Political Religion Email

Email question: How can you vote for Obama when he's a Muslim?

Barack Obama: A Christian - Obama was a member of the Trinity United Church of Christ, a Protestant grouping with a largely African-American congregation. Early in 2008 Obama was forced to denounce his former pastor, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, for controversial "inflammatory rhetoric" over American foreign policy, 9/11 and race relations. And the church's decision to award Louis Farrakhan a lifetime achievement award was highlighted by Obama's critics, and the various controversies led Obama to quit the church earlier this year. Obama has also been forced to defend himself against smears suggesting he is a secret Muslim.

*If Obama is a Muslim terrorist, wouldn't you think our FBI/CIA/Secret Service/Intelligence Dept. would know by now, and someone would have stopped him from running for President? Either we have a worthless FBI/CIA/Secret Service/Intelligence Dept., or that whole bunch is in on it, or the man is not a Muslim Terrorist. And let us not forget the smears suggesting Obama is the Antichrist. I'm thinking..if he is the Anti-Christ, wouldn't he have a bigger lead over McCain? And if he really is the Antichrist, wouldn't all born again Christians be happy about this? Doesn't the coming of the Antichrist mean it's time for the Rapture? *
________________________________________________________

Joe Biden: A Roman Catholic. After his selection as a vice presidential candidate, Biden was criticized by his own Roman Catholic Diocese of Wilmington bishop over his stance on abortion, which goes against the church's pro-life teachings. The diocese confirmed that even if elected vice president, Biden would not be allowed to speak at Catholic schools. Biden was soon barred from receiving Holy Communion by the bishop of his original hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania, because of his support for abortion rights,however, Biden did continue to receive Communion at his local Delaware parish. Biden "departed from party doctrine on abortion rights, declaring that as a Catholic, he believes life begins at conception", but Biden said that he would not impose his personal religious views on others.


John McCain: Was Episcopalian now a Baptist. He was raised in an Episcopal church and attended high school at a high school called Episcopal High School. he has attended North Phoenix Baptist Church for many years, and has said the most important thing is that he is a Christian. McCain still calls himself an Episcopalian, but he said he began attending North Phoenix Baptist because he found "the message and fundamental nature more fulfilling than I did in the Episcopal church. ... They're great believers in redemption, and so am I."

Sarah Palin: A Pentecostal evangelist and former longtime member of the Wasilla Assembly of God, a controversial church which believes Alaska will be the refuge for evangelicals from the lower 48 in the approaching End of Days. When running for governor, Palin was anointed at the church by visiting African pastor Thomas Muthee, his ministry was founded on a witch hunt in a Kenyan town. Palin has appeared to credit that prayer as a contributing factor in her electoral success.

Just a buncha Classic Dames!

The Classic Dames Test...
NAIW is Joan Crawford
You scored 36% grit, 19% wit, 29% flair, and 29% class!
You are one tough dame, as tough as they come. You've had to fight long and hard to get where you are, but you always knew you'd do whatever you had to do to get ahead. You aren't above committing crimes (or seducing others to do them for you) to get what you want. You want to be happy and comfortable, but you usually always manage to get the fuzzy end of the lollipop. Even your kids are usually against you. Your leading men include anyone you set your sights on, even married guys that are never seen on-screen. Watch your back.


BELLE is Barbara Stanwyck
You scored 45% grit, 14% wit, 38% flair, and 14% class!
You're a tough dame, a bit of a spitfire, and you can even be a little dangerous, but you do it with such flair that almost all is forgiven (and even when it's not, you're still the most interesting woman in the room). You can be witty and charming, all right, but you have a tough streak that keeps you focused and sometimes deadly. You've had quite a climb to get where you are, but you're a hard worker and you mostly deserve all you get...and then some. You might end up destroying everything around you, but you must admit...you've got style. Your leading men include Henry Fonda, Fred MacMurray, and when you forget yourself, Gary Cooper.


WTRW is Myrna Loy
You scored 21% grit, 19% wit, 29% flair, and 40% class!

You are class itself, the calm, confident "perfect woman." Men turn and look at you admiringly as you walk down the street, and even your rivals have a grudging respect for you. You always know the right thing to say, do and, of course, wear. You can take charge of a situation when things get out of hand, and you're a great help to your partner even if they don't immediately see or know it. You are one classy dame. Your screen partners include William Powell and Cary Grant, you little simmerpot, you.

BAAW is Rosalind Russell

You scored 36% grit, 43% wit, 14% flair, and 33% class!

You are a tough dame, but you temper it with class and sophistication. You can be as brittle and fiery as you want, but you will always end up being one class act, taking whatever comes in stride. You dress to the nines even when you are tackling a good story in the street. And you don't even lose your hat. You can match the smartest guy around line for line, and you've got an open mind that allows you to get what you want, even if you don't recognize it at first. Your leading men include Cary Grant and Clark Gable, men who can keep up with you.

NAIW: Joan Crawford! What the hell!

BELLE: Dangerous, witty, charming, style...that's me alright!

WTRW: Perfect woman, simmerpot, men turn and look admiringly...oh yes, that is me.

Blogger is a Tease!

You know how much we love Blogs of Note.
Not that we're ever gonna be one...but a girl can dream.
This is probably as close as we'll ever get.. Today On The Interwebs...it's almost like our name Today In Idabel Oklahoma! If we squint and look sideways we can almost pretend to see our blog name on blog of notes.

We think Blogger did that just to tease us.

Anyway, a blog of note is an interesting and noteworthy Blogger-powered blogs, compiled by the Blogger Team. For historical context, see Concerning the Historie and Nature of Blogs of Note... blah blah blah.

Some we go look at and say "How did that blog make blog of note and ours can't! That blogs crap! Our blog is better than that!...blah blah blah.

BUT! sometimes we come across one and say "OMG! I love that blog. Our blog will never be that good. I see why that blog got blog of note".

And this blog, this blog is one of those OMG! http://backporchmusings.blogspot.com/
Not only is it interesting and noteworthy, it's PRETTY!
It's so pretty we want to live on it. We could just spend all day there...and when she checks her stats, she'll see we did just that.

Go check it out and see how pretty it is. It's so so pretty there. It just gives you that good all over feeling......unlike our blog that gives you that icky and you need to take a shower feeling.

And by the way Blogger Team ..blogger spell check says your spelling Historie wrong.
Just wanted to pass that interesting and noteworthy information on to ya. Cause we're all about being interesting and noteworthy here.

The Redneck Remark Made

Hold on there Bubba! I'm offended by this remark made. Don't be puttin' all us rednecks in the same truck. You might want to change that to "some these rednecks" instead of "all these rednecks" ! Cause this redneck is voting for the black man. I'm voting for him based on his ideals, issues, policies and facts ....and the fact he wears nice clothes.
WTRW

The Remark Made

NAIW: So you read call the editor "Woman offended by remark made"?

BAAW: You know I did, and I know your gonna ask me what I thought cause I'm a black woman.

NAIW: No, I'm gonna ask you what you thought cause your the only one here. Duh...Yes, I'm gonna ask cause your a black woman. So being a black woman and a smart ass, what are your thoughts?

BAAW: Depends on how he said it. Did he say it like "Girl, you must be having a bad day and I'm sorry but I'm about to make it worse by giving you my bill" or did he say it like "Girrll, you must be having a bad day and you gonna need to go home and have some fried chicken and watermelon to calm down after I hand you this here bill." He might just be one of those people that use girl all the time. "Girrll how you been?" "Girl, how you doing?" "Girl, have you lost ya damn mind?" He may not realize he says it. Or he may just be a dumb ass that thinks an old nigger woman don't deserve no respect. So it depends on how he said it.

NAIW: I think women should be called ma'am. Especially older women, to me they've earned it. It's a sign of respect. I do have to disagree with the "white boys calling black women girls and gals", it's not just white boys calling black women this. It's all boys calling all women this.

BAAW: Well what about black men calling black, or any woman for that matter, hoe and bitch. What the hell is attractive about a men that says "This here be my bitch". My daughter ever brings home a boy and I hear him say "Come here hoe" I'm gonna kick his and her scrawny butts. Him for doing it and her for putting up with it. All men and boys should treat all women and girls with respect. Unfortunately, it seems some aren't brought up that way anymore. They don't respect their momma, they don't respect their girlfriends and they don't respect their wives. And it's sad some women and girls allow it. So I guess my thought on the remark made is ... I don't think it should have been a black and white issue...it should have been a show respect for women issue.

NAIW: For some strange reason I feel like listening to Aretha right now.

Inhofe: Nice Boots

Belle: What did you think of U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe?

WTRW: He had nice boots.

Belle: And...

WTRW: He talks a lot about Hollywood.

Belle: And...

WTRW: He probably lost a lot of votes when he made that comment about lawmakers getting elected right out of the fraternity house and having no experience in the real world. I'm not real bright on all this, but even I know that might piss off some young people. And that's not good when this is the year the youth vote is up.

Belle: Very good. And your right, according to CIRCLE the youth turnout tripled in Oklahoma. And..did you learn anything else?

WTRW: He had nice boots.

Belle: Repeat after me...I will not vote for a candidate based on what they wear. I will only vote on a candidate based on ideals, issues, policies and facts.

WTRW: I will not vote for a candidate based on what they wear. I will only vote on a candidate based on ideals, issues, policies and facts......But it's a fact he had nice boots!

Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin say they represent real working Americans like Joe Six-Pack, Joe The Plumber and me.

Joe Six-Pack can only afford a six-pack cause he got laid off.. but he dreams of getting a new job one day and drinking champagne or maybe bourbon...Joe ain't really a champagne kinda guy.

Joe The Plumber can't afford to pay his back taxes or hospital bill.. but he dreams of getting his plumbers licence and buying a plumbing business where he makes over $250,000... $249,999 if the other one wins.

And me... I'm hanging on to my job and hanging on to my house..but I dream of one day having a President that will really represent me and all the real working Americans. A President that will help us.. so we're no longer just hanging on. This President will change things for the real working Americans. This President will represent the working class that can only afford dresses off the clearance racks, only afford to take our kids to the park and can only afford one house.
This President will not represent $150K fashions, trips for their children paid for by taxpayers, $300,000 dresses and 7 houses.

I now understand why McCain and Palin don't like Obama's "spread the wealth around"....it's their wealth he's wanting to spread around.

Party Time in McCurtain County!

This little ad has created quit a stir here. I admit I read it and thought one way.. then read it again and thought another. Any comment?

Ad in McCurtain Gazette:
TIME FOR TWO PARTIES IN McCURTAIN COUNTY!
For most of Oklahoma's first 100 years, Democrats controlled both the Senate and the House, and McCurtain County voted for Democratic senators and state representatives.
That made sense, because having the ear of the party in power could bring the most benefits to our area.
But times have changed!
Today Republicans control the Oklahoma House and they are poised to take a majority in the Senate.
It is very likely that democrat Jerry Ellis will be our next state senator. Wouldn't it be wise to avoid having all our eggs in one basket, party-wise, especially with that party being in the minority?
If McCurtain County is ever going to join the rest of the state in having a two-party system, we need to support good people-of both parties-who are willing to stick their necks out and run for office.
We believe Rusty Farley is such a person who can help bring a two-party system here and help benefit our people. For that matter, Rusty favors non-partisan county elections.
He is a good, honest man who cares deeply about this county. We humbly ask that county Democrats give him consideration.
Paid for by the McCurtain County Republican Party.

UPDATE: Enough was raised to help Eleanor Rose Suttle! Thank You to all who donated!

This is Eleanor Rose Suttle. Eleanor Rose was diagnosed with bilateral retinolastoma, that's cancer in both her retinas. Eleanor's parents first noticed signs of the disease when their daughter was about 4 months old. They noticed a white reflection in her eyes with flash photography. It's kind of like the red eye that some people get in pictures, only it's white.

As part of a last resort effort to save the little girl's vision, doctors have recommended immediate proton radiation. The $140, 000 treatment isn't covered by the family's medical insurance provider. On October 20,2008 the hospital will do this new proton radiation procedure, but the Suttle's have to have $70,000. Right now the Suttle's have about $46,000.
I don't like putting pictures of kids on the Internet. But how could anyone look at that sweet baby and not want to help her. There is an account set up at First National Bank in DeQueen, Ark, also contributions can be mailed to: Chuck Darby at Faith Christian Center, 100 Tanglewood Drive, Broken Bow, OK 74728 (these must be delivered by noon Tuesday so the funds can be hand delivered to the Suttle's) You can also take a donation to one of our local churches.
I know times are hard right now. I know it makes us mad our government can spend $700 billion to bail out a bunch of greedy idiots. But when it comes to kids like Eleanore Rose, there's not even $140,000 to help save them.
If all you can give is $5.. just remember this...1000 other people might only be able to give $5. It adds up. If you can't give anything and your the praying kind...give her a prayer.

Joe “the Plumber” Wurzelbacher related to Charles Keating-of the Keating Five Scandal!

Seems the Republicans thought they had a real live Joe Six-Pack that rejected Barack Obama’s tax plan. But what they forgot to do was have someone check Joe Wurzelbacher’s background.

Turns out that Joe Wurzelbacher is a close relative of Robert Wurzelbacher of Milford, Ohio. Robert Wurzelbacher is Charles Keating’s son-in-law and the former senior vice president of American Continental, the parent company of the infamous Lincoln Savings and Loan. The now retired elder Wurzelbacher is also a major contributor to Republican causes giving well over $10,000 in the last few years.
_________________________________________________________

It just gets better and better for Joe The Plumber.

His full name is Samuel Joe Wurzelbacher. He owes back taxes. He doesn't have a plumbers license. He never completed an apprenticeship and he doesn't belong to the plumber's union (which endorse Obama). And the plumbing business he wants to buy, Newall Plumbing & Heating, is a two-man operation.

I'm Joe, this is my brother Joe and this is my other brother Joe.

Am I the only one that finds this whole Joe The Plumber story fishy.

This guy shows up out of nowhere a week before the debate....

Joe The Plumber Wurzelbacher came to prominence last week when he asked Obama about his tax plan during a campaign stop, which led to an appearance on a Fox News talk show and an invitation to a McCain rally.

McCain starts off the debate...


...with the Joe The Plumber story.

Joe Wurzelbacher of Holland, Ohio, declined to say who he will vote for in the November 4 election. BUT.....
Joe The Plumber did said "You see my house. I don't have a lot of bells and whistles in here, really. My truck's a couple of years old and I'm going to have it for the next 10 years, probably. So I don't see him (Obama) helping me out."
He said he wasn't swayed by Obama's health-care pitch, either, describing it as "just one more step toward socialism."
He said he was pleased with McCain's performance. "McCain came across with some solid points, and I was real happy about that," he said.

Does Joe the Plumber smell a little fishy or was it just the fish I had last night?
Is Joe The Plumber really Joe Six Pack? or is Joe Six Pack really Joe The Plumber?
Is Joe Biden really Joe Biden?
Is this election ever going to be over or will it be over when the election is over?

I think I'll be biden you good-bye now cause Joe is here to fix my plumbing and he brought a six-pack.

Slightly Confusing

McCurtain County Daily Gazette

Idabel Police are investigating the second armed home invasion and burglary in this county in one week. The first occurred at Wright City last week and has not yet been solved.

The second home invasion is slightly confusing, as there seems to be more to the situation than what some of those involved reported to officers.

A couple called police early Monday morning, saying one of their friends had just called and said he had been robbed at gunpoint. The couple translated for the victim, who could not speak English. The man said that two men armed with large pistols had forced their way into his home on the *** block of Northeast *th Street and held him down at gunpoint. The men kept demanding to know where a girl was. The victim said he didn't know who they were talking about, nor had he ever seen the men before. As one man held him down at gunpoint, the other man ransacked the house, stealing $800 cash and the man's wallet. Both men then left in a black Taurus, he told officers.

A neighbor across the street told police that while cleaning his camper he noticed a black Taurus drive by several times without lights on. Shortly afterwards, a woman came walking down the street and went into a home next door to the victims' house. Then the Taurus returned and two men with guns went into the house. All three - the two men and the woman - later got into the car and drove away, the man told officers.

The woman helping the victim translate said she believed she knew the woman that the suspects were looking for and might know where she was. She then drove to a local motel as officers put out an alert to all law enforcement officers for the black Taurus. When the woman arrived at the local motel, she saw the Taurus and two men leaning against a motel room door, as if they were listening to a conversation inside the room. As they saw the woman pull up to the motel, though, the men both ran, she said.

The woman honked her horn outside the motel room, and a woman and man came outside. The woman coming out of the motel room was on a cell phone telling someone that two men were trying to kill her. The woman driving the car tried to convince the man and woman to go with her, but they got into the Taurus with the two men, she said.

Just as the Taurus was about to drive away, an officer spotted the car and made a traffic stop in the parking lot. The driver, a 28-year-old Idabel man, told officers that there was .45 pistol in the car. Everyone except a handicapped man with no legs was taken out of the car. When the officer couldn't find the gun, he asked the handicapped man to lean over. The gun was underneath the man, the officer noted. The driver was arrested for driving under suspension, carrying a loaded firearm and other traffic citations.

The victim made several complaints against the suspects and believed he could pick them out of a photo lineup, but many of those at the scene would not give statements, officers said.

The case was turned over to detectives this morning.

I'm thinkin'..... slightly confusing doesn't cover this...how about WTF!

A Report

Idabel police took a report a woman's boyfriend had assaulted her. After the argument the man left and took two TVs and a fan.

The boyfriend later returned, kicked in a door and started hitting her in the head with a pair of shoes. She was able to get away, but then he jumped on top of her and twisted her wrist.

The woman made an assault and battery complaint against the 27 yr-old Idabel man.

Deputies took a report of a woman's son breaking into her house while she is at work. She said the man watches TV and leaves before she gets there.

She said the 25 yr-old has also taken some power tools from her house.

Deputies took a report of two TVs stolen from an unlocked cabin in Hochatown.

And Idabel police took a report of a man stealing beer from a refrigerator on a woman's porch.

Or Mixed!

I did one of those political telephone polls this morning.

And guess what one of the questions was?


Are you Caucasian, African American, Native American, Alaska Native, Asian, or Mixed?

And yes, she did ask if I were Hispanic or Latino. But for some reason (she didn't know why) it was a separate question.

What Oklahoma Debate?

NAIW: Seems there was another debate the same night as the Presidential debate.
BAAW: What debate?

NAIW: A debate between a guy named Inhofe and Rice.

BAAW: And how do you know this?

NAIW: Cause these people, Friends of Jim Inhofe, keep coming on here and checking us out. Seems Inhofe and Rice are running against each other for the U.S. Senate and they had a debate in Tulsa.

BAAW: Oh, that explains why we didn't know about it...cause the Oklahoma News Stations covered it.

Dear Inhofe and Rice,

Down here in Southeast Oklahoma, we don't get Oklahoma News Stations. It's true, we're in the State of Oklahoma, but we have no idea what's going on in the State of Oklahoma. So sorry, but we didn't get to see your debate. If we want to know anything about your debate, or you, we have to get on the Internet. Down here in Southeast Oklahoma we only get Texas or Louisiana news stations. We know deep down the Oklahoma news stations care about us. Cause every time something bad happens here.. they all show up. We don't get to watch any of it.. so we have no idea what's being reported. We can tell you all about who's running against who in Texas and Louisiana...we can't vote for them, but we can tell you all about them. And please don't think we don't appreciate the Texas and Louisiana news stations. We do...during bad weather those news stations are right there for Southeast Oklahoma. Keeping us informed, including us on the map, and watching over us. Don't get us wrong, I'm sure the Oklahoma news stations are keeping us informed...we just don't know it. So sorry to all the, Friends of Jim Inhofe, that keep coming here. All we can say about the debate is....What Oklahoma debate? and Who's Inhofe and Rice?

Panel Finds Palin Abused Power.....but which Palin?

*A legislative investigator found that Palin violated state ethics laws and abused her power by trying to have her former brother-in-law fired as a state trooper.
*The report notes a few instances in which Palin pressed the case against trooper Mike Wooten, but it was her husband, Todd, who led the charge. Todd Palin had extraordinary access to the governor's office and her closest advisers and he used that access to try to get Wooten fired.
*Gov. Palin knowingly "permitted Todd to use the Governor's office and the resources of the Governor's office, including access to state employees, to continue to contact subordinate state employees in an effort to find some way to get Trooper Wooten fired," Branchflower's report reads.

Did this trooper deserved to be fired? Yes
Did Sarah Palin abuse her power as Govener? Yes
Did Todd Palin abuse his wife's power as Govener? Yes

There's a right way to do something and there's a wrong way to do something. (which people in power always seem to forget).
Gov. Sarah Palin and her husband Todd Palin chose the wrong way on this one.

Gimme Three Steps Towards The Door

There was a group of us, Dems & Reps, that watched the debate. It was interesting the question that was asked by both when the wives came on stage. This picture that I borrowed from http://blogs.wsj.com/runway/2008/10/08/lunchtime-snap-michelle-obama-cindy-mccain-fashions-crossing-party-lines/ is exactly the way the two behaved on stage.

The question was: Why is Michelle out there meeting and greeting and Cindy is staying three steps behind McCain?

Is there an answer? ________________________________________________________

And There Are Pink Cowboy Boots

Seems a 38-year-old woman was arrested for stealing a pair of pink cowboy boots from Sharpe's Department Store in Idabel.


I don't think any of us should judge this woman just yet.


At least not until we see the pink cowboy boots.


Cause we all know.. there are pink cowboy boots.


And there are pink cowboy boots.



There are pink cowboy boots that will make us say..
"Girl! Your crazy for stealing those. What the hell were you thinking?"



And there are pink cowboy boots that will make us say..
"Girl! Your crazy if you don't steal those and you better grab me a pair."

I am FAT COW!

Did you know Cheryl Burke is fat?

All the great minds of America seem to think so.

Some comments made about her five, yes five, pound weight gain.
*for all that dancing she does, she sure is a pudgy little piglet.

*She is definitely quite pudgy....yet still cute.

*kind of thunder thighs.

*Fat. Fat. Fat. Ridiculously fat.

*Chunky for a dancer. She looks more like a maid at the Holiday Inn

*CHERYL IS FAT COW!

First..This is "FAT COW"

Actually this is "A FAT COW"

Not that there is that big of a difference between "FAT COW" and "A FAT COW"......except maybe 5 pounds.

And these are "thunder thighs"

on "ridiculously fat Holiday Inn Maids".

And this is a "pudgy piglet"...and tigger too!

a pudgy "yet still cute" piglet....and tigger too.

And according to the great minds of America....this is a fat Cheryl Burke after gaining 5 pounds.

And this is what I'm going to eat to gain 5 pounds...

...cause I want to look like "FAT CHERYL BURKE".

Not "A FAT CHERYL BURKE" cause there's a huge difference.

Bring on the TwinkieDings!
