Oklahoma City StorySlam
Oklahoma City StorySlam-Live Entertainment for Free
A StorySlam is an open mike, competitive storytelling event. There is a theme for each evening’s event, and stories told must somehow relate to the evening’s theme. Participating StorySlammers arrive early to sign up and names are selected at random. StorySlammers will spin tales of 7 minutes or less. The performance should be told rather than read. Creativity is encouraged, truth is optional. Winners are selected by crowd response so bring all of your loud friends!
This event is FREE and anyone is welcome to participate or listen to the stories. However, story content is often geared toward an adult audience. The evening will continue until everyone has had a chance to tell a story and the winners have been selected. For more information, email at okcstoryslam@yahoo.com or visit http://okcstoryslam.wordpress.com. You can also find OKC StorySlam on Facebook.
Generally held at the Istvan Gallery, 1218 N. Western, on the second Friday of each month. Questions? Call Stephen Kovash 405-831-2874.

NotchTop Bakery is Top Notch
On my recent trip to Estes Park, CO, I purposely ate breakfast in a local favorite bakery Notchtop located next door to a True Value in a strip shopping center not far from the Stanley Hotel of THE SHINING. Eighteen Christmas trees were displayed along with a poster of Jimi Hendrix sans guitar sitting on a motorcycle.
On Friday mornings from 7-10 a.m. Kristi Welborne's Fair Trader radio show broadcasts from the back of the bakery. First she interviewed the owner who read a story about his grandmother's honeymoon. He serves breakfast all dayand does love his healthy tapas.
Then Kristi read from her weekly emails and faxes. Samples:
For sale leather saddle $325.
Four-way metal clothing rack.
Sunglasses.
I decided that Estes Park's female Garrison Keillor wanna-be was not helping my writing career other than this post. So, I finished my excellent granola pancake and left.
Ernest Hemingway could not have found a place to sit because of the mature ski patrol men. I always wondered where they went when they retired.
