- I had four people (who weren't clients) contact me yesterday wanting advice. That's a record.
- I saw the word "dystopia" twice yesterday.
- Weird: I eat healthy and run all the time but my pants have suddenly become tighter. Time to ratchet it up.
- Those that always talk about "hating drama" are the ones most likely to be the cause of it.
- When I see someone driving a fancy car in Decatur, I wonder if they are up to their arse in debt. And I bet they are.
- Bud Kennedy tweeted yesterday about Kinky Friedman making an appearance in Southlake: "There are Democrats in Southlake?"
- I dreamed I had forgotten about a kitten in my garage that hadn't fed in days.
- The "new" Jay Leno shows looks just like the old one I never watched.
- Wade Phillips is a perfect grand father. A perfect grandfather is exactly what I don't want in an NFL coach.
- "How To Kiss A Woman By Captain Kirk" - youtube. (19 seconds).
- It's the "One Arm Dove Hunt" in Olney this weekend. I think I'd like to see that. But doesn't the title imply that it's the doves that only have one arm?
- Got an email of the increase of day laborers showing up in Decatur. "[There were 14 of them] just sitting or standing on the curb - their faces were hopeless."
- The County Court at Law Coordinator called me at 7:58 a.m. this morning on routine docket stuff. What's up with that?
- I saw a bumper sticker yesterday for the Lowery business over in Paradise that said, "Seen enough change, yet?" (Obama reference.)
- 9/11 was one surreal morning. I remember walking in the office and saying, "I think we are under attack." And we didn't have a single TV in the office which drove me insane.
- And I still believe we haven't been attacked because they haven't tried. But if you want to credit Bush can I thank Obama for "keeping us safe" this year?
- Weird comment this morning by Fox 4's Saul Garza interviewing a fireman putting out flags in Plano in memory of 9/11: "Then, of course, you have those that argue - another year - here we go again talking about it. Some people say 'let's move on.'" Who says that?

Let me out

If the Olney Dove Hunt is open to people with the use of one arm only, isn't that discriminating against the non-disabled? Two- armed people have rights, too!
The Captain Kirk kiss was hilarious--I had forgotten the "punch line" to the scene until I saw it, and "busted out" laughing!
And I'm glad my coordinators are keeping you on your toes!
One of your Courthouse "buddies".
I think the eery feeling of it being "September 11th" has worn off.
"One of these days, Alice...POW! Right in the kisser!"
Triple Fake Capt. James T. Kirk
i'm ok with Obama sharing credit with Bush for our safety...so long as he shares in the blame for not catching Bin Laden. Seriously, my wife has a baby so i get to pay the bills one month, miss one credit card payment by two days and those guys are calling the house to find out why...put a collection agency on the hunt for the guy; maybe then he gets caught.
Dare I say "roll tide"? those are some huge "breakers" coming in.
I bet you were eating Cheetos and watching porn when your pants got tighter.
I was sick of hearing about 9-11 the second year....too long, too much, just don't care anymore.
Love Leno, though, and ready for him to return....HATE conan!
As far as day laborers, I use them all the time ten bucks an hour and they can do it all,and work all day and do not complain.
You're wrong 9:01.. Barry doesn't
even like Cheetos!!
Yeah, I can understand 9:14 hating Conan, whose shtick is much more cerebral than Leno, who appeals to the unwashed masses. Your comment about just not caring says volumes. And they're not competing for airtime anyway. Watch one and ignore the other
Obviously, Capt. Kirk agrees with Sean Connery.
"I don't think there is anything particularly wrong in hitting a woman, though I don't recommend you do it the same way that you hit a man."
Thanks for your commentary, 9:36. Caring about 9/11 is equivalent to continuing to moan about slavery...the past is the past. Period. Much more water under the bridge which affects us TODAY. Even the Bible says let the dead bury the dead....in other words, MOVE ON!
What happened to man vs train from last night?
Is that an "alien beater" t-shirt Captain James Tiberius Kirk is wearing?
He looks so cute in it.
Double Fake George Takei
Yes there are Democrats in Southlake - but Kinky need not stop by.
9:52
Final Score- TRAIN 1 MAN 0
On not being attacked since 9/11….the Bush administration should get some credit for that - 7 and a half years with no follow up attacks.
That’s basically the same record that Clinton had from the prior world trade center attack….not sure that’s a good just measure of effectiveness
Never ceases to amaze how cold hearted Wise County is...and now you are bitchin about 9/11 being talked about too long, even on the anniversary of the horrible, horrible event...
Lord, I pray You give the Wise County haters the ability to forgive, love and help they neighbor;
Please give them the ability to get over their hatred on so many issues..and Lord please give the victims' families of 9/11 the strength to get through another year and to let them know that the "majority" of America is on their side and are mourning their losses as well...
Amen!
I suppose 9:14 and 9:52 are the same person.
Do you observe Christmas and Easter?
Do you work on Memorial Day or do you take a three day weekend off?
Ever celebrate a birthday or wedding anniversary?
All those things commemorate something that happened in the past. Is it just the happy events you want to remember, and sweep the unhappy memories away? I would think the majority of people feel that "just don't care any more" is a callous attitude
10:31...please go get screwed. I don't need or want your prayers.
So, 10:45, let me understand. We're supposed to whine, cry, and moan to commemorate every time someone bites it in this country? I don't think so. Not sure even Christ would like being assigned to the status of the HUMANS killed in 9/11. If I remember correctly, HE's the reason we celebrate Easter and Xmas. Poor comparison, but...you made a weak attempt at making a point.
Are Kinky Friedman's policies like the modern Democrat party? I think he is more Libertarian or old school Democrat than Pelosi, Obama, and crew.
10:52 I don't see what point, if any, you are trying to make with that last comment. I'll just stop debating the issue with you now. I can't argue with someone who doesn't make any sense
9/11 should be commemorated. No crying, whining, or moaning
All the lawyers in Southlake are Democrats.SURPRISE!
*in my best French Canadian accent* Look at the fun bags on that hose-hound!
Baby Arm
11:56 the point was that you are comparing the commemoration of Christ's birth and resurrection to 9/11, which is one of the most absurd comparison I've ever heard. Thank you for not debating anymore, because your point is completely useless.
Since you asked, you can give Obama exactly the same credit for no attacks this year that you gave Bush for the attack on 9/11 of his first year in office. Which, in my opinion, is nada on both counts. I have no idea what quantitative number to put on it, but I can't believe that the security changes that have been made, coupled with taking the war to their back yard have had zero impact. However, I agree that we will remain vulnerable in exact proportion to the freedom we allow in our society. The more freedom we give up, the less vulnerable we are to outside terrorism, but the more we will suffer from our own govt. and its agents. I think Thomas Jefferson commented on that subject some time ago.
BG..obviously no way to verify this or prove it, but of all of your comments I've ever read, the one I absolutely, personally and positively know is incorrect is "And I still believe we haven't been attacked because they haven't tried." Take that as you will.
1:20 p.m. Don't you think that if terrorists were REALLY trying to attack our great nation that they could've gotten through the loopholes somehow???
Come on, these terrorists are all over the place. They probably live on your street and ya don't even know it. Hell, they probably deliver your mail. Illegals cross the US/Mexican border by the hundreds daily and even manage to work over here illegally.
If they want to - they will - one day!
For Allahs sake they're workin at the Quick-E-Mart and Allsups.
Do any of you ever stop there?
Yes there are liberal weenies in Southlake. They can only cut grass and clean houses between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM then they have to go home.
I haven't seen enough change yet and I place the responsibility squarely on the shoulders of the Republican party who can't seem to meet in the middle where it seems our new president is stuck because he is willing to "reach across the aisle".
I am a Vietnam era veteran and have spent most of my life being politically active and I have never seen such a hate filled group of elected representatives that supposedly work for us. They have lied, manipulated polls, filled the airwaves with rhetoric that defies belief and spread misinformation with nothing less than the intent to divide our country into factions, not unlike backwards countries like Iraq who spent the last few centuries under some form of dictatorship.
Wealthy people make up 5 percent of our population. The rest of you need to wake up and wise up.
Thanks for blurring out the faces of those folks in the ocean in the background - I'd hate for them to be incriminated from that photo.
"There were 14 of them] just sitting or standing on the curb - their faces were hopeless." If there faces are hopeless here, what adjective would you use to describe the way their faces looked in Mexico before they entered the U.S. illegally?
7:32: The Democrats have control of both houses of congress and the white house. They can do whatever they want without any Republican support, but you still blame Republicans. Oh, and the wealthy that you say make up 5% of our population.....they are the ones paying for your food stamps, welfare, unemployment, healthcare, etc. Ya, lets hate on them.
