That’s right. You can bring your least favorite prescription drugs and any ammo you don’t want. It might be a good idea to get rid of the contraband now before the feds decide to raid your home without probable cause. The press release from the city says, “Keeping hazardous material such as lead, zinc, carbon […]

Oh, poop
But Doyle Sebastian Terry, 49, was already inside the jail. Officers were unaware that the transient held a foam cup filled with his waste as he sat at a nursing station on Sept. 9. The unnamed sergeant walked past and felt something hit the back of his head, News9 reported. It also struck his hand, […]

‘Damm,’ that booty
However, actual blood and skin isn’t our thing, and we certainly wouldn’t slay a human being over it. According to newsok.com, Edmond resident James Tyree was the victim of a crime that began on Facebook earlier this summer. Tyree commented, “damm,” on a pic of a girl in a bathing suit. Talk about not-so-famous last […]

At least they’re not murdering his music
In the prologue, a couple puts the 1977 hit on repeat and then gets murdered before it cycles into oblivion. You guessed it — bits play through the movie as neighbors pass the window and see, uh, Bernie and Pal, so to speak, propped up on the couch. We don’t want to give too much […]

Ready for some blonde football?
Underwood, born and raised in Checotah, is the new crooner on Sundays for NBC’s NFL football. You know the tune. The catchy bit just before the muscled-up men hit the field. Ball tune notables include legend Hank Williams Jr., who sang the Monday Night Football theme song for years. Also, Pink tried her vocals for […]

Among the students who perished were their sons — Nicolas McCabe, 8; Kyle Davis, 8; and Christopher Legg, 9. With […]

Gettin’ Dirty

Going against a rising tide of heavy metal acts, singer and guitarist Marco Gutierrez said the band didn’t find its home until it relocated to Austin. While he believes it was a “change that needed to happen,” the band […]

Rush
Instead, it’s a rather drab biopic about 1970s-era Formula One jerks that compete against each other in a high-speed pissing contest that totally leaves the audience out of the argument. In capable hands, this might have been an exciting, daring look inside this world, with the competitive nature of the drivers giving the viewer an […]

Kings of Leon — Mechanical Bull
Contrasting the band’s first two albums (Youth & Young Manhood and Aha Shake Heartbreak) with their last two (Only by the Night and Come Around Sundown) is like comparing the Rolling Stones to One Direction. Where there used to be cunning bite, there is now mawkish arena rock, and not even the good kind. The “Southern […]

’Live and well
It’s a common occurrence within urban sprawl: Historically thriving neighborhoods succumb to Father Time as new developments arise, businesses relocate and the activity of city-dwellers inevitably shifts from one area to another. Until recently, Oklahoma City’s Plaza District — the mile-long strip along 16th Street between Classen Boulevard and Pennsylvania Avenue — was merely another […]
