Eight Questions.....

It's Friday night. Pam went with some church friends to a Casting Crowns Concert. It s a fun thing for her to do.

I was planning to head to a basketball game, but a bad cold has sidelined me. Rest is important.

So its times for some questions.....

1. The congress passed the economic atimulus package today. Now, a 1200 check sounds good to me... but with a huge deficit in this country, how does this 170 billion dollars get paid for?

2. A football player from Nevada called a press conference and announced that he was "choosing" the California Bears. The problem was the California Bears did not ask him to choose them. Nobody did... not Oregon, not Washington, not Oklahoma State, not California. What was he thinking?

3. I have four great kids and a wonderful wife. How did I get so blessed?

4. John McCain is the "presumptive" Republican candidate. Who is the "presumptive" vice presidental republican candidate?

5. What is going to happen to my nice quiet neighborhood when a apartment complex of 250 units and a Kum and Go invade later this spring? ( Both within 1000 yards of my house. Guess thats progress.)

6. If the price of a barrel of oil drops from 100/barrel to 87/barrell, why doesn;t the price of gas drop 13% in a week. ( I know there is an explanation, but it does not make sense.)

7. Could it be that after all the talk about the longest political campaign ever, that on Feb. 8th we have our two tickets? Obama/Clinton or Clinton/Obama verses McCain/Huckabee? If it turns out that way I will suggest that in 2012 we not spend 200 million dollars just to weed out the long list of "hopefuls"

8. Did we ever think that the strongest college basketball program in the state of Oklahoma would be ORU? Wow....

More questions later...
