ABC Wednesday - "W" is for ...


This week's letter is "W." "W" matches two of Oklahoma's home state heroes.

Who doesn't love Will Rogers. Could he poke holes in windbags or what? In a nice way of course.

And speaking of poking holes in windbags, how about Woody Guthrie?  People still get riled up about him in Oklahoma. I wonder what he would think of the tea party?

I didn't know Will Rogers and Woody Guthrie were from Oklahoma. Interesting that Guthrie had a machine that killed fascists!

And I wonder what Will would think of wearing that Santa hat? :-) A fun post, Will and Woody are wonderful American icons.

Oklahoma produced yet another wonderful man, who's a hero to me, at least - my husband! (Born in Pryor!) :-)

Both heroes in my book. And that last question was rhetorical right? I don't think there's any question...he'd just change the words on his guitar sign and.... (where is he when we need him?)
