- Gmail went down last night.
- I really like David McCullough 1776 (I'm about two hours into it) and was even more pleased to learn he is the narrator of the audio book. Great voice. I immediately recognized him from Ken Burns' The Civil War.
- I should put the Carnival parade in Rio de Janeiro on my bucket list.
- Fat Tuesday in New Orleans, however, looks like it could be a beating.
- I haven't seen The Bucket List.
- Newest Obama approval ratings: 63% overall (89% among Democrats, 30% among Republicans, and 4% among Wise Countians. Last number made up, but probably accurate.)
- Another murder-for-hire was thwarted yesterday (a sweet mother/daughter plan). I wonder how many murders are the result of successful murder-for-hire plots?
- It's kind of neat that the Bridgeport and Decatur girls meet at this level of the playoffs.
- Note to Channel 5 morning news: A child found safe in a daycare van yesterday afternoon does not constitute a "Developing Story" this morning.
- Any traffic report that estimates the number of minutes it will take to travel a specific path is silly.
- Are there still travel agents?
- A buddy sent me a link to a recent Frontline episode called "Inside The Meltdown" -- an hour long documentary on the financial meltdown. I started it last night and was hooked. Absolutely great. And it will scare you to death.
- One good thing about being single: If there's a Depression era meltdown, I only have to take care of myself (and people I choose to take care of.)
- Jerry Jones was 46 when he bought the Cowboys.
- I was annoyed to no end by a drunk guy who thought he was entertaining at the West Village in Dallas on Saturday.
- I'm already monitoring the weather for this Saturday's Cowtown Half Marathon. So far, so good, around 50 with little wind.
- Texas shouldn't get too excited about beating Oklahoma on Saturday since OU's beast-of-a-payer Griffin played only 12 minutes due to a concussion. Baylor, on the other hand, has had a horrible season after starting the year off in the Top 25.
- Guy believes Aggies will win National Championship this fall. In other news, I bet he believes the world will end on 12.21.12.

any word on the senete vote to seat D.C. congressmen? i saw it cross the screen on msnbc this morning. that should give the dems 60 seats in the senete. so its all on them now.
When you do watch Bucket List, be sure to listen carefully to Nickelson's advice on three things Old Age has taught him.
When you recognize the verity of these you will know for certain...........you have arrived.
Frontline explains what happens when we borrow from foreign entities too much money allowing them to pull the plug at their chosing. This time, it gave Obama and the liberal Democrats the White house and control of Congress! An economic coup says some.
I'm still wondering if the guy (Obama) is truly a U.S. citizen. I know, everyone will throw a shoe at me, wait, I mean throw a fit. The issue is coming up again and more questions have been raised.
If it's proven he's not, this Country will look more ignorant than it already does and a number of Senators and Congressman will need to call it quits for their stupidity and failure to look into the Constitution. Of course, that's obvious at this time. Whatever happened to "No taxation without Representation"? We're paying taxes out the who-who right now and Washington could care less about our thoughts, our opinions and representing us.
Can someone who's a little more computer savvy, than myself ,contact Yahoo and let them know we've seen enough of the Ape with the red ass and request they remove it from the most emailed photo's. Good Lord!!
It appears they're having a major party in Brazil. Glad I'm not there, it appears to be a free ticket to hell and "do not pass go". Of course just the thought process from looking at some of the pictures can get you that free ticket.
isnt it amazing that our new treasury sec./tax cheat was neck deep in the start of the crash. im only 17 mins into the frontline video.
The Bucket List had a great deal of raw reality in it - what it is like to face the perils of old age and especially face a terminal illness IN old age.
It is a gripping movie, but not for the escape reality crowd.
Nickolson and Freeman were stunning in their roles.....
...as usual.
Where, in Wise County, can I get me some of that Bucket List coffee?
Implants, and bad ones at that, meh!
Newest Obama approval ratings: 63% overall (89% among Democrats, 30% among Republicans, and 4% among Wise Countians. Last number made up, but probably accurate.)
B.G. why is it that the rest of the 96% of Wise Countians can be this STUPID ! Okay say they are all Republicans. That would then be 26% of the 30% of the counties Republicans still dont get it.
Okay ....
Now lets hear Wordkyles Bullshit backed up by the House of R&R (There is good county money being spent. Let her pipe in while on the Tax Payers dime.)
And for a good measure we will hear from Annobiters (under anonymous) who wouldn't know a hard day if her finger nail broke. Nothing like a snotty bitch to look down her nose.
And then for the icing on the cake we will hear from Mzchief. A non American foreigner enjoying the fruits of her labor if you call "flat backing it with Mr. Mzchief" as work. She always pipes in like a lap dog
Did the Frontline story mention the relationship between Allen Stanford and Joe Biden? Of course not. But had it been Neil Bush, that's all we would be hearing about right now.
I never realized the word "Obama" was an acronym;
O - One
B - Big
A - Ass
M - Mistake
A - America
946 - Thanks for thinking of me.
Barry, Is that your hand in the photo trying to grope her??? Just askin?
9:46 HUH? (There is good county money being spent. Let her pipe in while on the Tax Payers dime.)
Last time I checked my personal life and my employment have never had any association with any payment from taxpayers, county, state, government, etc.
0946:
You must be a barrel of laughs at a party.
Buzz Killington
Jarhead I put that out there to see if I could get the monkeys on the porch to jump around.
And look how long it took. Now hang around and sit back wait. Lets see when the other two skank monkeys will start dancing.
This is better than a Barrel full of Monkey's. And for the record I didnt mention you for a reason. You were for sure going to be the Monkey cheerleader.
Now in come the clowns !!
Had McCain/Palin won would it be embarassing for our VP to have cheated our government out of 17,000 dollars?
Bottom line we haven't had much to choose from in past years from either party. Still makes one wonder if there aren't good people out there.
When the cycle rotates in a few years and the Republicans back in power they will be nominating Bushies for cabinet post as Obama has turned to Clinton folks.
Oh dear. Will a third party not rise up from the ashes?
You had to CYA somehow didn't ya, 10:30.
9:46
Where to start?
First of all, your math skills are faulty, and the 4% is a made-up number (he said so) . Plus, it's a national poll, which would mean it's 30% of all Republicans, not just the ones in WC
I'm not one of the people you mentioned. I don't watch Fox News and don't listen to Rush. I live in WC, and probably like most of the folks here, my opinions aren't formed by either of those sources.
Funny how none of the people you attacked have responded in kind so far. Words like stupid, bullsh*t, snotty b*tch, and lap dog really help your argument. (oh, and monkeys - 4 times!)
You didn't say anything of substance; you just insulted a bunch of people whose opinion is different than yours.
Jarhead is probably right, I'll bet you're a hoot
I agree with the previous commenter about the implants. Very unnatural looking. Don't understand why women do that. If you want to increase the size, be realistic; you don't find them perfectly round like that in nature. Nice-looking gal otherwise, though.
And if that is your hand, BG - you need to get rid of the French tips. Great look for a stripper, but not for an attorney
Sorry, Barry. You are/will be taking care of whoever you are told. Secret ballot/freedom of choice (except for babies) is becoming a thing of the past.
I was just feeling left out. I want to be hated by you too, too!
Why should Wordkyle, R and R, Obi, and mzchief have all the fun?
You seem very angry about something. I hope you get over it; life's too short to be pissed off at a blog.
Whither Ron Paul?
Barry:
If you like the Frontline program, you should read "Ed Wallace" in the Sunday S-T car section. I think he knows more econ. than most of the people who try to teach Econ. @ Universities.
9:46, my goodness, where did you acquire such charm and charisma?
You've certainly found your niche here in anonymous land. I don't think you'd feel so safe and superior if you were posting under a recognizable name.
Frontline explains what happens when we borrow from foreign entities too much money allowing them to pull the plug at their chosing.
That's actually not what it explains, but thanks for trying. Maybe you should actually watch it.
Yeah I always liked that David McCullough as Illyah Kuryakin in the Man from Uncle.
That brings back some painful memories of me as a little tyke staying over at Uncle Bills house.
Uncle Bill got me some of them jammies with the flap in the back but he never could afford new ones cuz they was always missin the buttons so my little rear always poked out.He took lots of pictures and always had candy in his pockets.
I don't see much of Uncle Bill anymore cuz Mom and Dad said he went away for a few years.
Majasty is a recognizable name? That is about as recognizable as anonymous.
11:08 Thank you Obi I knew you wouldn't let us down. Posted as anonymous.
Jarhead as predicted you are the sideline cheerleader. Also I really am not angry about anything actually. This is nothing more than a social science experiment. Sort of like the quite one picking on the school yard bullies. None of you could personally do shit to me even if you knew who this was.
Okay come Mzchief you are the last one left. Please little monkey dance for me.
Fat Tuesday in New Orleans would not be a beating. It would be a shooting. 6 as a matter of fact.
11:08 is not who you think it is, because I wrote that. I will agree with you that names don't mean anything on this blog, which is why I always post anonymously.
It's obvious the others don't think you're worth their time. Besides, there's nothing to argue about because you didn't make a point or present an argument. Pathetic
They appeared in the EXACT order I predicted.
1st Wordkyle
2nd House of R&R
3rd Anon (Anobiter)
4th Last will be Mzchief.
The whole time we had the cheerleader Jarhead dancing around. GO TEAM GO !!!
I love science.
Jealousy sure is an ugly monster.
My old lady is an uglier monster.
King Obama's ratings down? Maybe people have him figured out, huh?
401 are you some sort of creepy child molester or something?
Oh, I'm a cheerleader, huh??
Okay, I'll do my best.
AHEM!!

12:39!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The only truly intelligent thing posted here in years.
Sometimes I post some really stupid comments here because, well, sometimes I'm pretty stupid. Other times just because I get really stoned and there's no Cheetos in the house. But The assmunch @ 9:46,,, let me just say thanks for making me look smart.
Oh yeah, I'd gladly hit you with a 2x4 so you might not want to run around thinking there's nothing anyone could do to you. You, sir, would be wrong, in addition to being a poster boy for the promotion of slugs.
Yes, Virgina - there still IS a travel agent. I have a wonderful one in the Metro!!!
5:57 pm Going to a gun fight with a 2X4. You really are stoned and stupid.
Gmail will be down for good on 12/21/2012.
Oh I didn't know it was a gunfight. I better bring a 2x8 and an extra bag of weed.
I love women superhero oufits!
I just know got around to reading what 9:46 said....My boobies feel so left out :(
9:46 Is just like an organ grinder on the street. Making monkeys dance and all. Even the Howler Monkeys. And Jughead has shown talent that he shares with former President G. W. Bush. Great cheers Jug! G. W. was a cheerleader before patroling the skys of texas in a war plane searching for evildoers to destroy. Out of the Right-Wing blue sky, comes, SkyKingDubya!
