Random Tuesday Morning Thoughts

  • Get ready for news stories about "busy airports" on Wednesday and the size of shopping crowds on Friday.
  • I have no idea what the story is behind yesterday's pic of the Fox Business anchor. I presume it's photoshopped. But nicely photoshopped.
  • I think I know one person that actually owns the "Photoshop" software.
  • You can dial "211" for flu advice? Really?
  • When exactly did AT&T and Verison declare nuclear war upon each other.
  • I recorded a program called "The Lost JFK Tapes" off of the National Geographic Channel last night. Now if I can just remember to watch it.
  • I had someone get mad at me last night when I started to explain something that was funny on TV. She did not appreciate me trying to explain humor. Tenseness ensued.
  • I've already bought three Christmas gifts. That's a new record for me. But after I waited all Christmas Eve day for UPS (to eventually fail me), I decided that wasn't going to happen again.
  • Baylor and Tech are playing at The Death Star on Saturday and there's no way I'm going to watch that disaster.
  • We may now have the picture of the year from the Denton book-in photo site from over the weekend.
  • I've been a fan of Firefox for years but am slowly using Google's Chrome more and more.
  • Hard to believe it was 10 years ago that the Y2K "threat" was building up. And was that not one big scam?
  • There's no way A&M beats Texas on Thursday night, but if it were to happen it might very well be the biggest upset in Longhorn history.
  • The chances of a newspaper vending machine not working in Wise County are very high.
  • President Obama had a meeting of the "War Council" last night. I couldn't help but think of the movie line, "Gentlemen! There is no fighting in the War Room!"
  • I suppose no one in the actual room would dare make that joke. Or would they?
  • I ended up at the north end of DFW Airport around rush hour yesterday. Sheesh, 114 is horrible but going north to 635 or 121 looked insane.
