Rusty McCranie has an inventive way to forecast the weather

Hello again everyone! It’s another edition of Monday Morning Tweets! I’m actually writing this Sunday morning, so I’m not sure if the expected winter blizzard has panned out or not. So, to cover my bases, let me say: “Thank goodness for the early warning from all the weathermen! I was able to get stocked up and prepared well in advance so as not to be caught by surprise by this storm” and also “Dammit! These freaking clowns did it to us again! When will we learn to stop listening to these charlatans! They know nothing!”

One of those two sentiments should be accurate enough.

This week’s tweets are below the fold.

A fine idea, but everyone around here knows that no back-up weatherman is ever going to become Chief Meteorologist unless you can do the forecast using nothing but Russian Stacking Dolls.

Oh my god, you guys. In addition to being a trusted news presenter, Kelly Ogle is now doing the sports and the weather as well! The triple-threat. The man can do it all! Soon all positions at Channel 9 will be staffed by Kelly Ogle. Jim Gardner and Val Castor better watch their backs.

Okay?

No party I have ever attended has ever featured a plaid-shirt-wearing flat-top-having gentleman play the bagpipes. Take away all my cool points. I know I am doing it wrong.

OK, this is what will hopefully become a new recurring segment on MMT that we’re calling Oh… god… Abigail Ogle really is going to run this town someday, isn’t she? We might as well face facts, folks. She’s got the bloodlines, is very photogenic and clearly has the enthusiasm. She may be good on television already, but no one in the TLO offices knows if KSBI is a real station or not, so we can’t be sure about that. In any event, it seems clear that Abigail Ogle is being groomed for big things in this market, and Oh… god… Abigail Ogle really is going to run this town someday, isn’t she? is intended as a way to document her rise to the top. We will cover, via her Twitter feed, all the celebrities she name-drops and fancy functions she attends on the road to the inevitable. Someday you will all be able to tell your children you watched it happen in real-time.

This week, I decided to do a search for the terms “Oklahoma” and “shit.” Observe the results from the many poets of Twitter:

Awkward Twitter Conversations With Linda Cavanaugh

lc foreman scotty

Is Linda Cavanaugh like this in real life, people? Always gracious and patient with people who have waited years to share the minutiae of their lives with her? She probably deserves sainthood.

The “If Jim Traber Were Still Tweeting This Is What He Might Say” tweet of the week:

The Dean Blevins Memorial Weekly Tweet From Dean Blevins

Jet has #Deano on plane. “Another plane carrying book to translate things and randomly attach names to the end of thoughts. Not here yet.” Chuck

That’s all for this week. Follow me on Twitter here. Good bye! Chuck

    Re: Linda Cavanaugh. I once saw her at a Barons game signing autographs and told her that her husband was my favorite professor in college. I expected a polite “thank you,” but she asked my name and what classes I had. She told me that it was so nice of me to say so and that she would pass it along to him. I think she is just that way.

    I assume Dean’s reference to “Chuck” is to Charles Barkley, but then again with Dean I’m 90% sure that I’m incorrect about 87% of the time. Just sayin “Deano may have been hittin it a little hard at the Ole Urb”…….we may need to ask Rosser

    If you are really going to chronicle all the name drops and random sports locations Abigail Ogle puts on social media, you might as well shut down the site. I don’t think there is enough bandwidth in the state of Oklahoma to do that. I think Abigail has a direct wifi link to a satellite orbiting our moon that relays all her internet activity so it won’t break down our network infrastructure. That’s courteousness in a bottle. FYI that satellite is called the S.S. I think I am more important than I am and prettier than Liz Duweke in a bikini all because of my dad, Jesus.
