‘Jetsons’ house for sale in Oklahoma

Back in the 70’s people were coming up with all kinds of futuristic looking stuff. Like the now defunct futuristic city of Arcosanti for instance located in Arizona’s barren Sonoran Desert.
Though many of the futuristic builds from the 70′ or 80’s never came to completion, here’s one that did.

 

You could buy this Jetsons house tomorrow and just move right in.

This unusual house is for sale in Oklahoma, and is drawing attention online due to its resemblance to the titular family’s domicile from classic cartoon series The Jetsons.

Completed in 2005, this place lists for right around 400K, has 2 bedrooms, and 3 full bathrooms. Why 3 full bathrooms? Well, I suppose it might have something to do with … the future.

Nancy Davis Vandenhende of Halloran Home Team – eXp Realty, who showed the unusual Tulsa home in a popular TikTok video, said the house features its own elevator that takes residents and visitors up to the saucer-shaped main floor of the house.

Drop Dead

Six retired Irishmen were playing poker in Monaghan’s flat in Dungarvan when Sean O’Toole loses €700 on a single hand, clutches his chest and drops dead at the table.

Showing respect for their fallen brother, the other five continue playing standing up.

Michael Lennon looks around and asks, “Oh, me boys, someone’s got to tell Sean’s wife. Who will it be?”

They draw straws.

Cavan Colquhoun picks the short one.

They tell him to be discreet and gentle and not to make a bad situation any worse.
“Discreet? I’m the most discreet Irishmen you’ll ever meet. Discretion is my middle name. Leave it to me”, announces Cavan.

He goes over to O’Toole’s house and knocks on the door.

Brenda O’Toole answers and asks what he wants and Cavan declares, “Your husband just lost €700 and is afraid to come home.”

“Tell him to drop dead!” snarls Brenda.

“I’ll go tell him.” says Cavan.

The Cosmic Hoax

Recently I had the opportunity to look at a documentary over on TubiTV that spoke to the subject of UFO’s and of how the federal government is playing games with regard to it.

UFO conspiracy theories are actually nothing new. Over the past 50 or some odd years, we’ve been inundated with stories of possible monsters from space, wishing to wipe humans from the face of the earth. Spooky stuff indeed.

Actually, over the past centuries, when you include the Sumarian myths of “Flying Gods”, we can pretty safely say that humans have been bullshitting themselves into believing in extra terrestrials since the very beginning. It’s pretty easy to be convinced of such things over a prolonged period of time, especially since human society may very well have been much further advanced before the great flood than it was after. Man made flying machines are really nothing new at all in the larger scheme of things.

Populations around the world are made to be afraid of everything. Whether it be race, the socioeconomic, climate, age, youth, or whatever else, we will invariably find UFO’s in the mix somewhere, as governments march forward in the use of fear to quench their never ending thirst for power.

Recently, the government was tasked with investigating these so-called UFO’s, and in the end, providing a report on their findings.
The report that the government filed was very much predictable. It’s pretty easy to investigate yourself. You can come up with anything you want as long as you stay with the narrative of fear and misinformation.

It’s much easier to have the masses believe in something that isn’t real, than it is to have the masses balk at something that is.

You can pretty much know that the gig is up when all of these so-called sightings happen around military installations, Navy ships at sea, and the Air Force in the air. It’s much easier to control the technology when it’s kept close to the ones that created it.

The UFO is the perfect cover for when you want to test your latest technology against yourself. The sweet spot here is when you can convince other competing governments around the world that you have no clue about what it is you are actually testing. Might come in handy when you finally use your new technology for reconnaissance or spy missions over the sovereign ground of another competing nation.

As I’ve mentioned before in a previous blog post, “As far as technology is concerned, quite a lot of it was acquired from the Third Reich after the war. Jet engines (F14 Fighter), rocket engines (Ballistic Missiles), the flying wing (B2 Bomber), and yes, even prototype plans for a saucer shaped flying craft were recovered.”

Who’s to say that the Germans didn’t nearly master the anti-gravity deal through the use of competing poles as it relates to earths own magnetism. When it comes to other various inventions, we have to understand that our government and it’s military are way ahead of the game before anything much watered down is introduced to the public.

In this video from CNET, we can find the very predictable result of government investigating itself. Enjoy!

Progressive Montana

Montana has the most progressive Constitution in the country —

“Montana updated its 1889 Constitution, which some said was outdated and heavily influenced by the “Copper Kings,” in 1972 through a constitutional convention. It includes provisions such the right to a clean and healthful environment and addresses environmental concerns, including water rights, cultural resources and protections. Officials noted it recognized that all the people should be involved in government, adding that 28 of the 100 delegates were women.” – Missoulian

I’ve read the Constitutions of both Texas (conservative) and Washington State (liberal), and when I compare them to our Montana State Constitution, I come away with the notion of just how absolutely regressive they are.

The people of Montana are some the happiest, most helpful, and individually secure people on the planet, and I’m pretty sure that our state constitution has played it’s part in helping for that to happen.

2 K’s Kafe — Great Falls, Montana

While the wife and I were out and about yesterday, we decided to stop in at 2K’s Kafe for a quick bite.

In this day and age of gluten/fat free, processed sugar, and ingredients shipped from across the country, it’s always nice to walk into a place that smells like childhood memories. We never ate out much when I was a kid. Sure, we might have gone to A&W on certain occasions, but what made the most impact on me back in the day, was stopping in at the roadside diner while we were on a road trip.

I sort of feel bad for the folks who seemingly blow through town on 10th Ave South heading to wherever they’re heading to, because nothing on 10th Ave South can ever compare to the greetings, taste of the large portions, and the fair price that 2K’s Kafe has to offer.

Tucked away in our fair town of Great Falls, Montana is 2K’s Kafe, located at 406 3rd Ave South. In an area of town that most would never care to notice, is one of the best little restaurants you’ll find in Cascade County.

Wife and I got in there at about a 10:45 AM – 2K’s doesn’t start serving lunch until 11 AM, so we opted for a couple of omelets. I got the Western, and she got the ham and cheese. They say that these omelets are 3 egg omelets, but considering just how large these omelets were, I think the whole 3 egg deal on the menu might have been a typo. I’ve made 3 egg omelets before, years ago when I cooked at 4B’s, and they could never match up to the size of the omelets served up at 2K’s.

2K’s Kafe hearkens back to the days of the Yellowstone Truck Stop Cafe on the Vaughn road. And who remembers the old Double Barrel on Central Ave. or the old Crossroads at the Flying J on Watson Coulee road? Though Tracy’s Family restaurant has been re-opened again on downtown Central, it is no where near what it once was as far as taste, atmosphere and price.

If you remember any of these, then chances are pretty good that you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about when I mention 2K’s Kafe.

2K’s Kafe has large tasty portions that rival the newer so-called chain restaurants on 10th Ave South with hotcakes that are actually larger than the dinner plate they are served on. The cheeseburgers are 4x larger than the cheeseburger you’ll get at Tracy’s for the same price, and 2K’s actually puts mayo on the bun whereas Tracy’s does not.

The place was full when we got there, so we were relegated to sitting at the counter, which was no big deal because I had a pretty good yack attack with a 73 year old patron named John, who incidentally was a farmer from just this side of Eden — So the food was good, large, tasty, fairly priced, and I enjoyed great conversation with farmer John.

Wife couldn’t finish her omelet (because of it’s size) and had to get a go box for it.

2K’s Kafe is open from 7 AM to 2 PM Monday thru Friday, and breakfast is not served after 11 AM.
