Dog (show) days of summer

Angi, Kyle and I rolled out to the Cox Convention Center this morning for the 2008 OKC Summer Classic Dog Show. More than 130 different breeds – in fact, more than 8,000 dogs – are competing this weekend in various categories.

We spoke with Wendy Musgrove and various owners, trainers and handlers about the show and the dogs. All were very helpful and passionate about their animals and the show.

Tickets are $7 for adults, $3 for children and the show goes on through Sunday.

DnA: Budget travel

Wife beaters and flip flops. Showering at the… truck stop? This video conversation covered ground.

Meet me at the bar…. at 9 a.m.

So I did.

Angi and I had a 9 a.m. shoot at McNellie’s Pub, which just opened a few days ago. It’s in the Midtown part of Oklahoma City, just north of downtown at NW 10 and Walker. It’s in the old Plaza Court building where Veazey’s drug store used to be back in the day.

The official name of the establishment is James E. McNellie’s Public House. The owner, Elliott Nelson, spent a few months in Ireland, decided he liked their pubs, so he opened one in Tulsa called McNellie’s Pub – a play on his last name. It went well, so now he’s trying one in our backyard.

We shot two videos, a typical “DnA” video where we talk with someone about their establishment. And Angi interviewed the head chef, Steven, in the kitchen as he whipped up some really good pasta.

Pretty good morning I’d say – surrounded by 350 beers and good food.

deadCENTER Film Fest opening night

Angi and Kyle spoke with local film makers and fans at the deadCENTER Film Festival’s opening night Wednesday.

I had wedding stuff to attend to. A man and his finance have to make sure the DJ is on the same page, you know.

Ok, back to downtown OKC. Eight locations are hosting over 100 films, independent film-style. Check it out.

Which do you prefer: wind or rain?

So far this summer has been ridiculous with non-stop wind. Angi hit Bricktown to ask people if they preferred this summer’s wind or last summer’s rain.

A story I can relate to. My wedding is coming up soon. Angi and I hit Bricktown to get some MOS on a Look At OKC story.
