Only in The Osage

                        After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year outside of New York City, New York scientists found traces of copper cable dating back 100 years. They came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 100 years ago.

                        Not to be outdone by the New Yorkers, in the weeks that followed, a Los Angeles, California archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet somewhere just outside Oceanside. Shortly after, a story in the LA Times read: "California archaeologists report a finding of 200-year-old copper cable and have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network 100 years earlier than the New Yorkers."

                        One week later, a local newspaper in Ponca City, Oklahoma reported the following: "After digging down about 30 feet deep in his pasture near the community of Kaw City, Bubba, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Bubba has therefore concluded that 300 years ago, Oklahoma had already gone wireless."

                        Just makes a person proud to be from Oklahoma..

Don Sullivan sent this to me and I just could not keep from sharing it.
