We had a big bear that didn't have sense enough to let well enough alone. Usually we let bears run free up here but Old Smokey decided to give up a life of accidental menus and took to doing a buffet special on our tender little calves. When the dogs saw Old Smokey, they ran.

The Oklahoma City Zoo
The Oklahoma City Zoo is the #1 tourist attraction in Oklahoma -- and it ranked THIRD in the nation in attractions for children. Just looking at the number of animals would make anyone wonder how this is accomplished. Well, it takes work to be #1, and more work to keep it.

I warned the public that China was not complying with our environmental restrictions in the manufacture of dishes and other products which touch the human body.
