Frogville, Oklahoma Loco, Oklahoma Bushyhead, Oklahoma Bugtussle, Oklahoma Hooker, Oklahoma Slaughterville, Oklahoma Bowlegs, Oklahoma Slapout, Oklahoma Here Are Some Little Known But Very Interesting Facts About Oklahoma . 1. The bread twist tie was invented in Maysville. 2. The shopping cart was invented in Ardmore in 1936. 3. The nation's first parking meter was intalled in Oklahoma City in 1935. 4. The first Girl Scout Cookie was sold in Muskogee in 1917. 5. Cimarron County , located in the Oklahoma Panhandle, is the only county in the U.S. bordered by 4 separate states.... Texas , New Mexico , Colorado & Kansas . 6. The Oklahoma State Capital is the only capital in the U.S. with working oil wells on its grounds. 7. Boise City , Oklahoma was the only city in the United States to be bombed during World War II. On Monday night, July 5, 1943, at 12:30 a.m., a B-17 Bomber based at Dalhart Army Air Base, Texas , dropped six practice bombs on the sleeping town, mistaking the city lights as target lights. 8. WKY Radio in Oklahoma City was the first radio station transmitting west of the Mississippi River . 9. The nation's first 'Tornado Warning' was issued on March 25, 1948 in Oklahoma City minutes before a devastating tornado. Because of the warning, no lives were lost. 10. Oklahoma has the largest Native American population of any state in the U.S. 11. The name ' Oklahoma ' comes from two Choctaw words... okla meaning 'people' and humma meaning 'red'. So the name means, 'Red People.' The name was approved in 1890. 12. Oklahoma produced more astronauts than any other state. 13. Oklahoma has more man made lakes than any other state. 14. During the 'Land Rush', Oklahoma City went from a vast, open prairie to a city of over 10,000 in a single day. 15. The nation's first traffic 'Yield' sign was erected in Tulsa on a trial basis. 16. Pensacola Dam is the longest multi-arched dam in the world at 6,565 feet. 17. The ' Port of Catoosa ' (just north of Tulsa ) is the largest inland port in America . 18. The aerosol can was invented in Bartlesville . 19. Per square mile, Oklahoma has more tornadoes than any other place in the world. 20. The highest wind speed ever recorded on earth was in Moore , Oklahoma on May 3rd. 1999 during the Oklahoma City F-5 tornado. Wind speed was clocked at 318 mph. 21. The ' Will Rogers World Airport ' and the ' Wiley Post Airport ' are both named after two famous Okies....both killed in an airplane crash!!! Cowboy's Ten Commandments (1) Just one God. (2) Honor yer Ma & Pa. (3) No telling tales or gossipin'. (4) Git yourself to Sunday meeting. (5) Put nothin' before God. (6) No foolin' around with another fellow's gal. (7) No killin'. (8) Watch yer mouth. (9) Don't take what ain't yers. (10) Don't be hankerin' for yer buddy's stuff Now that's plain an' simple don'tcha think? And, my own observation...if, by some chance, Oklahoma doesn't have the most horses per capita, it certainly has the most horse manure and horse trailers.

Vince Gill one of my golfing buddies in my Nashville days and of course Carrie Underwood (not a golfing buddy just another very popular Oklahoma singer).

mac, my technician friend/workmate from nebraska often joked about going to sleep in nebraska and waking up in kansas. the dust had blown ten foot drifts in the night but, not to worry, it all blew back by supper time the next day.
btw, add nokie edwards, lead guitarist for the ventures to the list of famous oklahomans.
