- That National Championship game last night was sloppy but still pretty exciting. (Maybe it's not the best idea to make the teams wait six weeks since their last game.)
- Brent Musburger before the final game winning kick: "This is for all the Tostitos!" (Groan.) Even Mrs. LL looked up from her e-Reader and fired off a "Did he just say that?"
- TCU finishes #2 in both the final AP Poll and the final Coach's poll.
- Sounds like a weird trial last week in Wise County where a guy was found not guilty of failing to register as a sex offender. Two of the jurors said it wasn't their verdict when the jury first came back with the Not Guilty verdict and, when sent back to deliberate further, there was audible shouting coming from the jury room.
- Glenn Beck website screwup yesterday. Funny.
- Boy, the Right Wing talk show hosts were on the defense yesterday proclaiming that their rhetoric has nothing to do with violence in this country. It's the first time I've ever heard them tell us that what they say actually means nothing at all.
- There was fudge, monkey bread, and cookies in kitchen last night. It's like the Twilight Zone.
- Tom Delay's lawyer said yesterday after this client's three year sentence, "If I told you what I thought I'd get sued." Huh? By whom? For what? (And, by the way, if Tom DeLay actually has to serve his three year sentence, I think his actual time would be around five months.)
- The 2nd Grader in the House will often flamboyantly sing the last word of a sentence. (i.e. "It is deliciousssss!")
- When did Aeropostale become the hipster label of the day?
- Some gal from MTV's "Teen Mom" looks anything but. (I have no idea who she is.)
- Bud Kennedy was banned from a Tea Party meeting in Austin yesterday.
- Mrs. LL is doing well post surgery. The incision spot still hurts but the carpal tunnel pain is already gone. (And, yeah, the other wrist has to be done in a couple of weeks.)
- Why is there a Green Hornet movie when no one cared about the TV series?

"She said her group is doing this because they think the media has been unfair" - From the Tea Party Ban Story... Since when has the media been fair to anyone these days. They make it sound lake a whole city is unsafe if one person gets mugged.
No comment on the universal, concerted, even coordinated attacks by Liberal Democrats on speech they disagree with? To them, disagreeing with their agenda is "using violence-inciting rhetoric." They try it every time a tragedy occurs ("Never let a serious crisis go to waste") -- curb the First Amendment rights of their opponents. Never mind the numerous examples of the Left's violent talk. (Does anyone recall Conservatives ever trying to silence the opposition?) The first instinct of Democrats is to curb our liberties, using any occasion, no matter how tragic, to further that goal.
I've never seen or heard the word "rhetoric" used so much. It's the new buzz word
what makes you think the Glenn Beck web picture was a mistake?
Nice Pic
Golden comment from the Defense attorney posted on the WC website link comment section for the Sex Offender story.
Richard Gladden2011/1/8 2:42 pmAs the Defense attorney who represented Mr. Kelley in this case, I am not at all surprised that the Wise County Messenger consciously chose not to contact me as part of its "investigation" for this story. Had it done so, its readers would at least have had an opportunity to understand the reasons why the members of the jury, who were selected randomly from across Wise County, unanimously determined that Mr. Kelley was "not guilty." The District Attorney's ignorance of the law, not the jury's, was the problem in this case; and were I a voter in Wise County, I'd find and elect a District attorney that understands the plain meaning of English words used in a criminal statute. Furthermore, if the Wise County Messenger has a problem with the constitutionally protected right to a trial by jury, it should relocate to another Country where, unlike the USA, there is no such right. Wise County is a part of the USA; it is a shame that the Messenger either doesn't think it is, or that it shouldn't be.
Wordklye,
Methinks thou dost generalize too much. This liberal weenie doesn't want any liberties taken away. I do however want the electorate to hold our candidates responsible for words/ads that go too far. Winning at any cost is unacceptable. We need to be swift in our disapproval.
The climate out there is awful thanks to the talk shows, ads, etc. The shootings are a natural result. If anyone is at fault it is us.
"Does anyone recall Conservatives ever trying to silence the opposition?"
Does McCarthy ring a bell?
Tell Mrs. LL to wait on the other surgery a while. After having one done, the other has NEVER bothered me again! (yes, it was diagnosed in both). I know it sounds freaky!!! But since then, I had another CT patient tell me that her doctor told her that typically the other will heal itself. I would normally balk at that, but I'm proof!!!
"Boy, the Right Wing talk show hosts were on the defense yesterday proclaiming that their rhetoric has nothing to do with violence in this country. It's the first time I've ever heard them tell us that what they say actually means nothing at all."
Are you liberals even capable of rational thought? Or are you suggesting that conservatives should just act like sheep and accept everything we don't like without questioning it?
Anyone with a grain of common sense knows that the right wing did nothing to inflame this guy, given his mental condition and love of COMMUNIST literature!
928 - Who decides when language is "too far?" Does Obama's reference to taking a gun to a knife fight count? And why is it only one side that wants to curb free speech?
Rusty - First, you had to go back more than half a century to find an example. Second, McCarthy said Soviet Communist spies had infiltrated our government. He has been proven right. Third, the opposition was very loud against McCarthy, so was not in any way "silenced."
9:43, but it sounds believable to a liberal weenies ears if they all sing it in unison and loud enough.
9:35...You are proof that carpal tunnel is a farce! It is actually a seperate condition that is misdiagnosed as carpel tunnel in which the myofascial (skeletal muscle) develops contraction knots called "trigger points". Surgery will help by severing the carpal ligement and providing relief but is unnecessary. "Carpal Tunnel" can always be relieved or even cured with hollistic methods such as yoga, or other nerve gliding exercises, ultrasound, diet change and habit change.
The reason most choose surgery is because in our fast food society we want a quick fix.
Pima County Sheriff + National Tragedy = IDIOT!!! Inflamatory rehtoric? You bet! I am one pissed off "Right Wing Nut"!
Glad Mrs.LL is doing good and I miss her blog also.
I agee with 9:35 and 10:03. I would not have the second one done. It is caused by repetitive movement. Once that is stopped, the tendons will heal on their own. Although there are cases of broken tendon due to injuries, for examples broken wrist bones and the tendon and nerves are damaged.
Wow! You guys are great with the "liberal weenie" mind control. You know exactly what we think, say and do before we think, say or do it. I am surprised that my Liberal friends bother to say anything at all.
You guys are so good!!

For most of my life I had only the liberal news media to listen to. I was very frustrated because I did not understand why they were most always on the opposite side of what my values were. I was able to look at public records to see that most of the news reporters voted in Democrat primaries so I knew what their party affiliation was. I found the same information true when I ran public records on my college professors. Then along came FOX. Thank God someone realized that there was a huge market that did not agree with the bias reporting of CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, etc. This has really got the liberals in a quandary because they have always had control of brainwashing.
Thank you FOX for showing a Democrat target map very similar to the one that the liberal media credits to Palin and continues to flash on the screen. Thank you FOX for broadcasting Obama's statement about bringing a gun if they bring a knife. There are countless other examples.
This said, the man who murdered and wounded all these innocent people was crazy and we need to stop being political about it. He was neither Democrat nor Republican. Let the families and country morn and bury their dead. But do not attack my values or blame the political party of my choice because I will defend myself.
Well, 10:24, its not difficult to do when you have years of historical references. Liberals are as predictable as the tide.
well 10:03 I'm so glad my surgeon violated all the HIPPA laws and shared my medical files with you! You sound like such an expert. You obviously have all the information about what treatments I received prior to surgery (which was a last resort, just so you know!) Moron!
I'd love to see your medical license---not that you have one, but I'd really feel sorry for any patients if you did.
Mrs. LL--I hope you have just as much success as I did with my surgery. Hope you are pleased with your outcome!
11:01...Did you really try all other treatments prior to surgery, or did you just go to one or two Physical/Occupation Therapy appointments and deem that they were not working? I am sure you are probably too lonely to give up the "repetitive motions" that gave rise to your wrist pain to begin with, you just switched hands.
Alright....here is a question for all you sports fans.......
Auburn won the Nat'l Championship game. Therefore they are the Nat' champs.
TCU was moved to #2.
Question.....IF Auburn is handed down sanctions after the SEC investigations are complete, will they be pulled from being the Nat'l champs?
Will TCU be named the Nat'Champs?
By virtue of win/loss record and final standings, they should be.
9:35...OMG your Right!!!
I only had one side done on my Vas and im still shooting blanks...OMG....
10:03 I am really confused. You can spell myofascial but you can't spell separate. Truly amazing
Carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by repetitive movement, but often it's impossible to give up the movement which causes it, such as typing or writing, due to occupation. That's the reason some folks have to resort to other methods. And yes, a smart person NEVER uses surgery as their first option. Surgery always carries risks, no matter how "minor" it is. But on occasion, surgery IS the only resolution.
Nobody cared about The Green Hornet? Kato, the coolest chauffeur/sidekick in history. The Black Beauty was one sweet ride and so was the convertible garage.
I've been waiting on this movie for 10 years and what do I get?
Seth Rogan...
Banjo playing will cause Carpal tunnel syndrome
Nobody cares about Sarah Palin, Tom DeLay, carpal tunnel, liberals or conservatives...
TCU is #2 in the nation! GO FROGS!!!
I read the article you referenced re: Kennedy and Tea Party. I did not read that he was banned at all. I read that the Tea Party rep said they would film any interview he conducted due to his past writings about the Tea Party. What's the problem w/ that?
Did you misrepresent the facts in this case, counselor?
12:42 spoken like a doctor.
Dis is Bluce Lee and I chop you ass off if you no like Gleen Honet!
I'm 12:42...RN
SyFi is running a Green Hornet marathon today.

Geez, I didn't know all you people were docs and experts on carpal tunnel..what works for one patient with it may not work for another...I will also bet most of you singing the praises of a non-surgical option have never experienced carpal tunnel. Arrogant, just arrogant, that you can form an opinion on a patient you have never seen, evaluated and/or treated.
And, no, I do not have it.
12:42 Thank you!
And 11:46--
I have full faith in my surgeon, and have used the services of this particular practice full of orthopedics for things other than CT. And so you know, my doctor was smart enough that he didn't even recommend PT and OT (that's grown up lingo for Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy, just so you know) for my case. My surgeon obviously is more educated than you in the field, as he picks and chooses what's appropriate for an individual patient and he didn't have to depend of the same website you went to for your information. Thanks for your concern, but really, keep it!!! I'll stick to the opinions of someone with shingles hanging on the wall! Just for you 11:46--a "shingle" is a fancy book learnin' word for a diploma and medical license!
VAN WILLIAMS ROCKS!
WEll said 7:05!!
7:05, of course he recommended surgery in lieu of therapy that is how he pays the bills! I do not get my information from the web but from personal experience with the condition.
Your idea of grown-up and educated is the use of acronyms and jargon? Good for you, but your attempt at throwing out some Dr. speak to try and punk me down just shows your own insecurities. By the way, a "shingle" is nothing more than a colloquial term for opening a business, originally tied to the legal profession.
10:19 OHHH Burn! Good one. 7:05 would flip you off...but it hurts too much.
Jerry;I though it was Hugh Hefner.
