MEMPHIS -- What a weird, strange trip this was for the Oklahoma City Thunder. The boys in blue came to Memphis and lost a game they weren't supposed to lose, then won a game they weren't supposed to win.

Two days after an epic meltdown, Oklahoma City authored its own classic comeback Monday night.

Thunder 133, Grizzlies 123.

In triple overtime.

Last witness dies, leaving millionaire's murder unsolved

OKLAHOMA CITY -- The lifeless body was slumped on a living room couch. E.C. Mullendore III looked like a dirty rag doll, only it wasn't red earth from the millionaire rancher's spread that camouflaged his face.

It was his blood, and lots of it, retired Osage County Sheriff George Wayman said.

"He suffered a bad beating and was shot," Wayman said. "His whole skull was caved in."

It was a sight the 85-year-old Wayman said he never forgot.

On Sept. 26, 1970, Mullendore, 32, was killed while at home on his family ranch near Pawhuska. His death has remained a mystery with only one man knowing the truth of what occurred that night.

That man, Damon "Chub" Anderson, died Nov. 24. No charges have ever been filed in the case.

OKLAHOMA CITY -- Retailers are targeting plugged-in shoppers through their smart phones.

Stores are setting up Wi-Fi access so consumers can access the Internet while they shop, allowing them to read product reviews, compare prices and more.

Some are even using freebies to help the new technology catch on. For example, The Gap last week gave away 10,000 pairs of jeans to shoppers who "checked in" using Facebook Places, a feature that lets their friends know where they are.
