Throughout the stories here is information on how places, cities, and states got their names. However, questions arise because Native American tribes of the day didn’t yet have a written alphabet, and none of those came along until Sequoyah invented one in 1821, one that was actually more of a syllabary with symbols that stood for consonant/vowel sequences and could make words, basically just a writing system.One such word example is Tsa-La-Gi in Oklahoma, a recreated Cherokee sett...

The so-called Golden Age of Radio lasted little more than a quarter century from approximately 1926 to 1952–54. This is what it was like:“Of all the forms of theater, radio drama commanded the most effective stage. No medium—not theater, not film, not television—had more sheer space in which to achieve the basic goal of drama, telling a story. Theater is bounded by the bare boards and the footlights and the flats, film by the white screen, and television by the comparatively tiny t...

This is a kind of history, or at least remembrances. It’s primarily personal but overall takes a look at the way things were many, many decades ago. Details may get a little out of whack from a chronological order now and then, but the gist of the way things in some desperate personal and national times will be fairly well put in place.

If you happen to be a fan of some of the actual or fictional stories of the wild and wooly American West in the nineteenth century, you might as well know that a lot of it was made up of cheap, sensational material that was often a pack of lies created by the vivid imagination of the writers.
