Yep, by proclamation of Governor Brad Henry, today is "The Lost Ogle Day" across Oklahoma. And when we say across Oklahoma, we mean across Oklahoma! From Hooker to Beaver and even to the Custer County Jail, citizens are celebrating the existence of this "pioneering" website. Take that Pioneer Woman!
Anyway, to answer your first question, no, we did not go all Baptist Messenger on everyone and create a fake proclamation. This thing is totally real and legitimate. In fact, I'm probably going to have to take it to Hobby Lobby this weekend and have some weird 45-year-old guy with a pony tail frame the thing.
To answer your second question, yes, we're still not sure why this happened. We are thinking it may have something to do with our interview with Governor Henry that will appear on the site later today (teaser), but we're not sure. Maybe he's a fan of the site, or maybe his staffers read the site, or maybe he just wants to make Mike McCarville very jealous. Regardless, who cares! Today is freaking The Lost Ogle day, so get out your checker board, play the Jim Traber drinking game and wear your favorite pink bikini. And while you're at it, go plaster a white shark poster to some building in downtown.
