Air Show Photos
As promised, I posted the shots from the 2008 Tinker Air Show in Midwest City. Click here to see the photos, or here to watch the slideshow . Here’s a sample:
Good Week
All in all it was a good week. Not only did the right David win American Idol, but Marline and I had some fun activities to finish off the row of days on the calendar. Friday night, we attended the graduation at Bowlegs High School, at the invitation of my friend Kristy Hill. After the[...]
Wrong and Right
My prediction turned out not to be true, but my hope did come to pass. I’ve wanted David Cook to win for several weeks now, and he did. Good job, American Idol voters. EDIT: But ” bad job ” to the producers of the show, who apparently picked a sucky, cliche-ful song for Cook to[...]
Maybe I Was Right
For about 10 weeks now, my wife has been pulling for David Cook, one of the American Idol contestants. I joined her in this pursuit after Michael Johns was voted off the show. Tonight, we waited with baited breath to hear Cook’s finale versus the smooth-singing David Archuleta, who’s been a fan favorite for most[...]
5/12 ≠ 9/11
Today on NPR, I heard I heard a reporter (whom I normally respect) say, “May 12, or five-twelve, is China’s nine-eleven.” First of all, it reminded me a little of Rudolph Guliani , who used “Nine-eleven” as his main campaign platform to his own demise. But more importantly, it made me wonder if the reporter[...]
Finale Week
Well, it’s finale week on American Idol. I’m hoping we see something like this (Fantasia), or maybe even this (Clay). Just listen to them, if you have a minute or two. (I know Clay didn’t win, but you’ll agree he should have, after listening to his final performance.) We also saw brilliant finale performances from[...]
End of the Sports Season
As many of you may know, I’m the sports editor at our local newspaper. The only time I really get to take a break is during the summer months when our high schools are out for summer vacation. Well, that time has finally arrived. Sure, there are still things happening, like little league baseball, rodeos,[...]
Graduation
My “little” brother Zane graduated this morning from East Central University in Ada, Okla., getting a Bachelor of Arts degree. It was an emotional time for me. He was just four years old when I graduated from high school. (today) (2004) (1990) He’s grown up a lot and we’re proud of him. CLICK HERE to[...]

This video is is cuter without sound (I forgot to mute the TV before recording). Rebecca was proud that she drinks out of a glass now, without spilling: (Copyright © 2013 by Wil C. Fry. All rights reserved.)

Flickr did their biggest change ever this evening. There’s a little more about that on my other blog. I’m seriously considering ending my eight-year relationship with Flickr. If only there were another decent place to share photos (and remember, I said “decent”, so no one suggest Facebook). Rebecca worked on learning my limits again today.[...]

WEATHER: 72-93°F, mostly cloudy RLF requested the playground today, after a few weeks of not going, so I said okay. She wouldn’t walk there; only rode in the stroller. And only played there for about five minutes before she was ready to come home. (This is why we’d quit going in the first place.) She[...]
- Forgot To Mention: May by Wil C. Fry
➤ A couple of nights ago, Rebecca woke up crying about 2 a.m. My wife heard it, rushed in. RLF said she needed to go to the bathroom. MF took her; RLF did. Then RLF went back to sleep. (I didn’t wake up. Noises will prevent me from falling asleep, but very little will wake[...]
- May 18, 2013: More Hotter by Wil C. Fry
After a cooler than average spring, yesterday was the hottest day of the year (high: 92°F) until today’s record high of 96°F. Had a pretty good day with Rebecca (scroll down for photos).

Rebecca did well with potty again today — still working on #2. After an early, short, and surprising nap (she put herself down at 11:50 for just an hour), much of the afternoon was full of fussing and craziness. I got a new debit card today, to replace the old one that was cracking and[...]
