- Rush Limbaugh billboard that he might want to rethink. (Thanks, Keith) If you don't want to click on the link, just know that it involves bullet holes. Edit: Holy, crap -- it's in Tucson.
- That Memorial Service last night messed up my TIVO'd episode of Modern Family. Where do I lodge my complaint?
- Once my head hits the pillow, I'll be asleep within 10 minutes. Insomnia is one thing I've never suffered from.
- I've never really paid much attention to Michelle Malkin. (She's a perfect example of Hate Speech.)
- Fifteen years ago today, Amber Hagerman (wiki) was abducted in Arlington. You know the name because of the Amber Alert (which has the most haunting of sounds.) Gordon Keith on The Ticket this morning said that her killer was never captured although they thought a guy named Michael Blair had done it. Nope, Blair was convicted and then later acquitted of killing a girl named Ashley Estell of Plano.
- The case involving the missing young mother from Perrin last summer was never solved, was it? Weird.
- We'll hear of the occasional murder-for-hire case but how many are successfully executed and end up as an unsolved murders.
- I think my household has finally fallen into a routine. That's a good thing.
- Vacation thought: Going to San Fransisco and then driving the Pacific Coast Highway south. Anyone ever done that out there?
- What's the general consensus regarding "second hand" clothing stores? I'm conflicted.
- Now a Texas rep wants a law that would allow Congressmen to carry guns at the capitol. Man, we are a Knee Jerk Nation.
- The University of Arizona must be one crazy place. In addition to turning the Memorial Service into a pep rally, the 16th hole of the Phoenix Open has historically been transformed into a frat party.
- I think I gained some weight over the holidays.
- Richie Whitt ranked the Top Ten Metroplex Weatherhumans.

Messed up Modern Family threw our house into an uproar too....bumMER!!
Messed up my DVR as well. And who knows when they will run the show again.
As for second hand stores---very cool! Once you start though it makes it hard to pay full retail without complaint! If you can get $100 pants (sometimes with the tag on) at a second hand store for $5 it kind of makes it hard to pay $100 for the next pair. I would think with young folks who are growing it would be a real wallet saver too.
Hey, messed us up to. The minute that crap came on we put in a movie.
You "think" you gained weight? Mmmmm....I would have assumed a big shot attorney such as yourself would have a set of scales so he could answer that question as a yes or no.
That Limbaugh billboard is the perfect example of the right's fetishization of guns and violence.
BG,
Are you still keeping track of your daily weight on a spreadsheet?
Umm....not to be condescend but.....you actually watch Modern Family?!?!?!
Isn't that a chick show?
Amendment II
A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.
I know it borders on "hate speech",
but it's the Second Amendment to The Bill Of Rights.
Congressmen are citizens too aren't they?
Second hand clothes are ok I guess, as long as they aren't second hand skivvies. eeeewwwww

Congress needs to pass a law requiring everyone that meets CHL standards to carry a gun. An armed society is a polite society.
Tucson = Austin without the money but with worse traffic and similar oddities. Didn't see the memorial service at McKale Center but I'm not surprised.
In less depressing Tucson news, El Güero Canelo is opening another Sonoran hotdog stand on the Eastside.
Is today's random thought girl a repeat? Not complaining, just wondering.
Mark Kelly sure looks alot like Stone Cold Steve Austin.

Operative words there in the little ammendment are "regulated militia."
enough said.
Have not gone south, but once I flew to SF, rented a motorcycle, rode north over the Golden Gate Bridge, then on Hwy 1 through Bodega Bay (where the movie The Birds was filmed), Point Arena, etc. Fantastic. I've heard it is also nice going south, but I don't know if the highway stays right on the ocean as much as the route north.
Michelle Malkin is a brilliant hottie. Keith Overbite, Jesse Jackson, New York Slimes, and Obama's pastor, Rev. Wrong, are perfect examples of hate speech.
* Is the phrase "straight shooter" now something to worry about?
* If you wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep, that's insomnia. (Dean Martin singing that line just popped into my mind.)
* Michelle Malkin = "hate speech?" That's a pretty delicate instrument you have there, counselor. Examples, please, if your opinion is informed.
* I think saving money by shopping at secondhand stores is great. I think bragging about shopping at secondhand stores is gauche.
Texas already allows guns in the capital for chl holders and if you talk to the people that work there they feel safer.
If the 16th hole is a frat party, it would be a frat from ASU. Both ASU and UofA are Southwest Texas State like in their approach to academics.
You can get the same frat party at the 13th hole at Colonial.

9:17 Do we even have any militia
anymore? Have they pretty much been regulated away?

The Pacific Coast Highway is 10 times better from San Fransisco up to Portland. Do yourself a favor and rent a convertible for driving through the redwoods. Gold Beach and Fern Canyon is as good as it gets.
SF South. Do it - Big Sur is something to be enjoyed. You will also see where your vegatables are grown.
Absolutely 917. Enough said indeed. If you Opened your figurative mouth any more all doubt of your ignorance would certainly be removed. If you want to live somewhere where only the bad guys carry guns you should move to Mexico. The general populace there can't carry because they can't afford it but it gives you a good idea of what happens to society when the government controls everything and is corrupt. It doesn't stop the bad guys it only hamstrings the good guys. If the right to carry a weapon to protect myself and others means I support right wing "hate speech" then so be it. When we both run into a gang of thugs in a dark alley way I will let you attempt to reason with them and explain that you don't support their right to carry. See you at your funeral. Idiot.

The framers didn't think that was enough said, so they continued with: "the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."
Then, they thought, enough said.
And so do I.
Rent a convertible and put in an Eagles' CD and enjoy CA. South to Carmel is nice but I enjoyed the north alot better. Rent a limo and go through the wine country. It's cheaper than a DWI and alot more enjoyable. Love it out west.
917 - The meaning of the word militia, as used in the Constitution, can be argued. (I happen to disagree with your interpretation. The Wikipedia discussion under "Influence of the English Bill of Rights of 1689," for example, is pretty convincing.) However, the phrase "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed" is pretty unambiguous.
heard Bport Hosspital sent employees home and what few patients they had to other hospitals today?
10:02, where did you hear that at?
I drove from SF down PCH all the way to LA. It is terrific. A few small towns and nothing else but cliffs and ocean. Also go through Carmel-by-the-sea. 17 mile drive takes you up to Pebble Beach. The estates up there are enormous. Monterrey has one of the best aquariums in the country.
10:02 Pull your head out. The hospital has been full these past few weeks. Sure you're not referring to Wise Regional?
What part of the second amendment borders on hate speech? Many of us “Liberals Weenies” are full supporters of the second amendment (and armed to the teeth). Just because we believe there should be some regulation does not make us against the second amendment.

Six people died and all I got was this lousy TShirt.
Just drove by Bridgeport Hospital and it looks to be open.
9:00 Modern Family is the best show on TV, bar none. It won the Best Comedy award for a reason. And yes, I turned off Bammy the minute they interrupted and kept it muted, read a book, and only returned to watching once the song and dance was over! What a loser!
I think it is important to exercise our 2nd amendment rights so I keep my pair of bear arms mounted neatly on the wall in my den next to my deer mounts. I chose grizzly bear arms, but black bear arms are pretty cool as well.
Nice chick this morning, by the way.
Gee thanks 11:05 for bringing up that scary place called Wise Regional.
Be afraid....be very afraid
you can go to abc.go.com to get full episodes replayed on your PC, yesterday's episode is already there. Google TV can't do this BTW. Or, be really cool and plug your laptop's audio and video outputs into the HDTV and let everyone watch it.
Been on both drives to the north and south of San Francisco, and I'm gonna have to agree that the north drive out of San Fran is awesome. To the south was great also, but the north drive is BETTER.
Bridgeport "Dr's" hospital hired a collection agency this week to "track me down" for an unpaid amount of almost $30 I apparently owed them. Never recalled getting a bill once or even 3 times, and if I did I probably would have paid it. Called them up, they had my correct address on file, but they also had no record of sending me a bill - so I paid it over the phone.
Just shows how messed up their AR department is. Was the cost of hiring the collection agency even worth the $30 in the first place?

Oh vicious rumors on the Bridgeport hospital. Someone is obviously wishing bad things for 2011. Maybe the person who posted those false comments needs to come walk in the door and see that business is being conducted. Nothing is shut down.
Funny. I am sitting here working right now at North Texas Community Hospital. We are not sending patients anywhere. We are OPEN for patient care (as usual).
False alarm...AGAIN Chicken Little!
Did the person who passed the rumor on happen to ask the starter how many misdiagnoses Wise Regional has had to date?
Whats that fat growth under her armpit...ewww ugly.
Armed Liberal,
I was being sarcastic. Most Libs do not like the 2nd Amendment.
"Armed to the teeth"?
So if a bad guy comes into your home in the middle of the night,
you are going to bite him?

P.S. See, two can play the goofy let's pretend we don't know what a figure of speech is game.
knee jerk? i doubt the right to bare arms is knee jerk.
Secret Police,
Cool! You got me. I do have to say I agree (at least in part) with several of your postings.

Dang it..didn;t sign my name on my previous post sorry!!
Operative words there in the little ammendment are "regulated militia."
9:17, did you not learn to diagram sentences in school?
The operative phrase in the second amendment, is "the right of the people". The same "people" referenced in the other amendments.
It's what distinguishes citizens from subjects.
BTW, a couple of points about "A well regulated militia": First, it's what's called a prefatory phrase (i.e., it prefaces), giving context or background. Second, in contemporary parlance, "well regulated" means "well practiced".
The Constitution thanks you for stopping by, but urges you to spend a little more time in study.
Thank you.
Second hand stores are great in 2 different ways: 1) you get great clothes, sometimes new, for about 10% of the original price and 2) you can sell the old clothes you don't want to many of them. I'm a business professional and shop 2 great resale stores in Wichita Falls. I shop the ones that are consignment - not Goodwill and the others that are donations only. The consignment stores have nicer items.
SFO, drive North. Prettier. Go up in the redwoods etc. If going with family, some fun things to do with kids. Drive thru tree, trees of mystery, that sort of thing.
Thanks, Armed (not so) Liberal!
