The Week In Review

Monday:
There was a homicide this weekend in Tulsa. So what better way to celebrate than by doing an unrelated neighborhood crime story! Sorry, the cynic in me made me say that, but in reality we profiled the most effective neighborhood watch in Tulsa. FOX23's Abbie Alford brings us the story! Some of you might know her, as she used to be with 49 in Springfield and 17 in Decatur!

As an aside, things went haywire and I ended up editing someone else's story and they edited mine and did the live shot. But he managed to get in a couple of the cool shots I shot!

Tuesday
Drugs in the schools! OH NOES! Actually, these drugs are a problem as they are the misuse of prescription pills but punk ass kids wanting to get high or get down or whatever. Dumb kids. Why can't they just be like we used to be and sniff magic markers or lick frogs?

Anyway, Noelle and I take a look into the world of illegal prescription drug usage by talking to a former addict. There's a group home for women here called 'Love For Life' which helps they get off of the junk through womanly love (not that kind) and the power of God (yes, I will admit God can be used for good on occasion). It's a great organization and they are really good about talking to us when we need someone to profile.

Wednesday
HOLY SHIT! WATER BAN!

Water pipe broke, so the city of Broken Arrow (no relation to the John Travolta movie which is actually pretty good...) needs to fill the reserves so that they can fix the pipe. So they ban outdoor water usage! And they mean business. $500 fine if you violate the ban. Oofda!

Anyway, I was having a miserable day this day as my camera was broken and I was doing all I can to even slightly give a damn.

Thursday
My Friday! Yay! I always seem to get annoying stories on Friday's. Annoying for no other reason than it's mostly file and other people's video and the whole story was a real stretch.

As a warning, if you are looking to move from a large market to a smaller market, or are about to hire someone who is doing that... Don't. Nothing you do will seem newsworthy.

We do so many stories that I would have just laughed about in Vegas. Oy!

Welcome to my blog!

Thanks for visiting my arena of crap and terrible writing! My name is Erin Winking, also known as ewink and this is my blog.

I am a 29+2 year old, year old television news photojournalist from Springfield, Illinois who just got done with a two year bit in Las Vegas and has now, for whatever reason come back to Realtown, America - Tulsa, Oklahoma! I am a huge anime fan as well!

Outside of that I enjoy writing, playing computer games (EVE Online 4tw!) and not updating my website! I am also semi-political, whereas I like to bitch about things, but tend to not do anything else. If you are going to put me in a party, you'd have to consider me a libertarian, even though I am not a member of any political party.

I hope you like my blog! Feel free to drop me a line!
