LAW & ORDER Can't Spell

You know, you get used to seeing typos. Some are funnier than others. Some are merely inept, like the dozen or so weekly seen on the newscasts of Channel 9 here in OKC.

Others are more jaw-dropping, simply because you'd think that a lot of people would have to have seen the goof before it gets onscreen!
The above is from the 21st episode of Season 7.  The episode title is "Passion."   In case it don't jump out at you, the town is named "Greenwich."
The above is from the first episode of Season Two, concerning the bumping off of Max Greevey and the search for the murderers.  Now, this was McCormick's first ep of L&O as Dr Elizabeth Olivet.  So you would THINK that her agent, or SOMEBODY, would have made sure her name was spelled right!

In case you weren't sure, her first name is Carolyn, not "Carloyn."

See you Monday, fellow silly people!

TIE Fighters at the Capitol

WELCOME TO APRIL FOOLISHNESS 2023!

Some of you may know that I work for the Great State of Oklahoma.  They're still working on wrapping up the big Capitol refurbishment.  Evidently we're at the stage when Imperial TIE fighters do a flyover!
This is a view from above the West Door.  There is an odd vertical line of shapes painted across the parking lot.
To me they look like TIE fighters.
A bunch from STAR WARS.
Here I have circled them.
And here's a trimmed shot with contrast changed.  I'm not crazy!  They REALLY ARE THERE!

Come look for yourself ...  See you thursday!
