- I installed three ceiling fans this weekend. The first one took about eight hours. The second one about 45 minutes.
- I now understand the term "learning curve."
- Never before have I cared so much about the difference between a #8 and a #10 screw.
- I also had to buy a "screw extractor" and a "T wrench". That should tel you I was beaten down to no end.
- Home Depot should make me honorary Chairman of the the Board based upon the amount of money, and the insane number of trips, that I allocated to the company this weekend.
- I jogged in the morning all three weekend days. Fantastic.
- My post jog this morning involved the oldest stepdaughter (hate that term) riding her bike with me. What a great experience.
- TCU did well.
- I could have sworn I heard the Texas Tech crowd chant "BOR-ING" after the Raiders first offensive series.
- They might run a silly hurry up offense, and they'll miss Mike Leach, but the offense is not boring.
- Oklahoma looked unenthused. As did the Evil Empire.
- For the first time in years I dressed casually last Friday. Then my assistant reminded me I had two court appearances (which I swore weren't on my calender but were). I ran home and changed into a suit. Beating.
- I'm waiting for a toy dog to arrive at the house as a new member. He's from Oklahoma. I'm plan on reminding this very Empire friendly house about that every day.
- Remember the fight between the young guy and the old guy at the U.S. Open I posted the Friday? Now there's audio. (Language warning. Big. Time.)
- Guy gets hit in the head with a foul ball during batting practice. The Zapruder film quality begins at the 30 second mark. Ouch.
- Ugh. Saw a news story of six month old being killed in a crash on I-35 just north of Hillsboro. Why does it seem even more horrible when you know the stretch of highway?
- I just woke up from a nap and feel like Otis from the Andy Griffith Show after a bender.
- The Deutsche Bank golf tournament was on TV this weekend. I just love being able to pronounce it: Doy-cha Bank. By the way, that outfit was one of the biggest suckers of credit default swaps during the last-big-economic-crisis.

That girl on the left looks ready to catch a load
I would love for that little loud mouth yankee to come to Wise County and pull that chit. It would have never made it that far before someone throttled him!
I was not impressed with TCU and I'm a Frog fan. The whole team looked like they weren't focused. Hopefully they will get their head back in the game when they return to Amon Carter.
I'd have thought you kept a spare suit in the office closet for emergencies, like Don Draper.
You have discovered why folks hire handymen to do those tasks. It is usually cheaper and less frustration!
Name the Yorkie "Sooner."
Go Eagles!
Eagles Rule!
My kid has a laptop!
What about your kid?
Say sport, you might want to throttle back that discussion on doing your own electrical work in your house. If you have a HOA or live a big city, sometimes they require the work be done by a licensed electrician or have inspections upon completion. Just a thought.
I call my stepdaughter, bonus daughter or bonus kid. Seems nicer.
I am paying higher taxes so your kid can have a laptop.
Do a search on YouTube and you'll find even more angles on that fight. Saw one where the woman slaps the fire out of the young guy. That's what he's saying he "can take 20 of" in the above video. My guess is they were offended by his language and, being New York, decided to skip the polite way of asking him to be quiet and probably took the STFU approach. In the other video, you can clearly see the older guy grabbing and slapping him and then pulling him down, apparently forgetting he's on a stairwell. I think the kid's a bit rude, stereotypical NY guy, but I think he's getting a bad rap too.
Here's the 3rd angle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnHa_amL49c&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Why Home Depot? Lowes is 15 minutes away.
I wondered the same thing about the Home Depot/Lowe's question

You're not from around here, are ya? There are no big cities in WC. Heck, I wonder if there are even any HOAs. I'm sure to hear about it if there are
The US Open video: I really doubt the polite approach would have worked in that case. If the
guy was in the right or not, he just seemed like "stereotypical NY guy".
"I'm gonna do what I wanna f***ing do. What are you gonna f***ing do about it?"
Those crazy tennis fans
You're okay so long as you don't wake up from a nap feeling like Floyd the barber...after a bender!
Ooooooh ooooooh, Andy!
Triple Fake Ernest T. - Ernest T!
Big fan of the term - bonus daughter. Marry the parent, the kid is a bonus! And then you become the bonus parent instead of the evil wicked step!
TCU did well
That's it? You have it in for TCU for some reason. Did you not get in and have to settle for NTSU, your "safety school"?
Bingo.
I missed my morning run yesterday very unusual. Woke to rain this morning. Can't go 2 days! Put on a big yellow slicker I bought last year and did 1.5 miles of my usual 3. Was dry except for my head - the hood covered my vision so had to be pulled back. But kicked a frog and decided I am crazy and went home. I am weird but after 5 years of this I can't go to work and not kill unless I at least make an effort. I think the morning run in the dark may be my best time of the day!!
