- Moments ago the U.S. military announced they had killed the Taliban insurgents responsible for downing the helicopter that killed 30 American troops. Should I feel bad for being skeptical? What about when the statement says they specifically killed the individual who fired the rocket propelled grenade?
- This American Life had a show the other day about how some people buy software patents for the sole purpose of suing those who might infringe on them. Then I was reminded that when D Magazine listed the most expensive homes in Dallas in 2009, the #33 ranked home was owned by a guy who did just that. (Frontburner)
- Completely unrelated: A Bridgeport company had a patent awarded to them this week based upon an invention by a Runaway Bay man. Other than it has to do with a drilling, I have no idea what the heck it is.
- Well, I sat around and looked at the stray dog yesterday. Ugh. It's really just a bizarre moment when he's looking at me and I'm looking at him. And when I imagine him thinking, "You're not going to take me to the pound are you?", I know I'm done.
- A reference to a real baby called Skyler that will only make you cry.
- Weird fact I actually calculated and put on my calender: As of today, the number of days that I have held a law license is exactly equal to the number of days I have not held a law license.
- Is anything quite as dumb as the London rioters? (Pretty good photos of it here.)
- The Fox 4 weather guy was throwing out that there was a chance we might not reach 100 on Friday and thereby not match the streak. I think he might be doing a little publicity seeking with that prediction.
- Did you see those clouds that produced the thunderstorm over Gainesville yesterday evening? They looked a lot closer.
- We had a 17 year old in jail in Wise County on a misdemeanor theft charge for about a week who couldn't make a $300 bond. (A bonding company would have written that bond for less than $100.) He and his family couldn't afford it. Kudos to the jail, the prosecutor, and the judge to make sure the situation was justly handled.
- Another prostitution bust of relatively attractive women? This economy must be horrible! (The girl in the first pic has become the center of some research.) Edit: Sheesh. Those are the same girls I posted the other day. But the updated "research" link still has some value.
- Very random thought about Warren Jeffs: The man looks like he could use a few hamburgers.

Dangggggggg HOT!!!
I think that is worth a pound of bacon
Hey homey, your 5 prostitutes are the same ones as the other day. I know cause I like the girl in the I love pink shirt.
Gainesville?? We could see those clouds here in Hamilton. They seemed much closer than that. It is a mirage.
With all the bad news -- drought, stock market, killed Navy SEALS -- none of it bothers me as much as the London riots. I think that is our future and it scares me to death.
DOW crashing. A hard rain is go'n to fall. I mean a hard rain is falling. I think this is a repeat of my post from 2008 when Obama went ahead in the pre-election polling and the market crashed.
Irony: Those prostitutes were from a town called "Floyds Knobs". Knobs, heh heh...
the captains and kings have put their fall guy in place, not good for any of the O's...if'n you know what i mean....and i'spekt brother jeffs fenda get plenty hambuggers..
Its times like these, where Spoiled Brats are rioting and stealing in England, that make me realize just how far we have to go to be as sophisticated and cosmopolitan as the "Old World".
Meh.
I understand your skepticism Barry, but I can guess the area where the Chinnok loss occurred has been under 24 hour surveillance by every single air asset available since the bird went down.
Once the bad guys were tracked to their bad guy lair every single one of them and every one they knew and all their goats were vaporised.
LOL, almost forgot to add... last week I bet Triple Fake a steak dinner that we would miss the consecutive 100deg streak record by one day.
If this works out I am heading to buy Lotto tickets.
London riots scare you? We're already ther baby. Those riots are their Watts OR South Central Dallas- negrahs, dumb, dirty negrahs.
What????? No comments about Bishops Car
what happens when you take away their cell phones and inkernett..fb etc..?
how comes we can't get us a n out burger up hear in chico we dunn got f'd out our multiplex pichure sho.
why all this doom and gloom people..our gov will surley save us..won't they ?
Well it looks like Tom Bishop thinks he to good for a pickup hummm I think Mr. Hudson drove one for 15 years and it's was ok for him.
Stay hard Tom and they will get you that tricked out SUV you think you need and Mr. Hudson will have it next election
That is the Hottest brunette baby you've had in a while!
Baby makin hips! Yeeeow!
I feel a little stirring you know where...
I can not believe there is not ONE Comment on Tom Bishop new vehicle debate on here!!!!!!
Yep,{m stirring the pot,,,,,
Imogen Thomas.... nice!
London Riots: Nothing more than a case of "Monkey see, monkey do"...
That storm coming from Gainesville caused a bunch (I heard seven location names on the scanner). Lightening strike fires in the Forestburg area last night - thanks Alvoid for coming to help our firefighters. I know there were others too - one up in Capps Corner at least.
How do people get the mentality that everybody owes them something?
How do people not know that in tough times certain things have to cut out because there is no money to maintain these programs?
How can people who claim they can't find a job refuse to take whatever and however many jobs it takes to maintain their cost of living?
How do people live beyond their means.
How do people not have self worth?
our commisioners are bout like our politicians. stupid.
they should make bishop stay off the frikin road.
do the fright thing , boys
In the USA we have AR15's to protect our homes from rioters. The Prime Minister in England has threatened to give them a shower with a water cannon. May be the best chance for a bath for most of them.
If we could have eliminated the Taliban with air assests, why didn't we before we lost all the men?
Tom Bishop is a hero and you people haven't got sense enough to know it.
Thank God for you Tom.
There sure were a bunch of white faces staring back at me when I looked at a composite picture of all the men killed in the helicopter in Afghanistan.
Honcho:
If you concede defeat now, I might go easy on you. You know, order water and no dessert. However, if you persist in this futile attempt, the entire destructive force of this battle star will come to bear on your home planet of Alderan.
Sorry, channeled Governor Tarkin there for a second.
I'm really kinda hoping you win this bet. If it means even a brief respite from 100+ degree days, then the streak steak will be money well spent
Warren Jeffs should have been acquitted by reason of insanity. He reportedly had 78 wives! That's gotta be, what?...at least a dozen mothers-in-law? And of course he looks skinny. With all those child brides, he's probably been living on PB&J and Cheetos for years
I can understand him wanting to get lots of strange, and propagate his seed and all that, but twelve year olds? C'mon, just admit you're a pedophile wolf in shepherd's clothing
Hey genius @ 10:01 -
looting and rioting are not synonyms for black person. The average British hooligan rioter is probably whiter than anybody in Wise County
The Watts riots were about 35 years ago, and when was there ever any rioting in "South Central Dallas"?
I believe Mr. Hudson drove his OWN truck all those years. So why does Tom Bishop think the county needs to furnish him a car. If he wants to catch speeders then why don't he apply to be a patrolman. Oh wait they wouldn't hire him. And by the way if he is such a good "officer" why could he not bust the meth lab that was being ran a couple of miles down they road from him. Guess he was so busy radaring on 380 that this little fact slipped right past him. Now there's something to think about.
how about that stock market
Oh please folks - don't worry about anything - Perry IS running for President - and his college transcripts were released (go check it out) - the hick from Haskell made BAD grades. And we want him for our next President?
What a sickening thought.
Let's see....
Let's compare Oblamo's "history" to Govenor Perrys.
what are the odds of another nigger ever getting elected potus again, i say slim to none and slim done gone. sorry jessie and al
Tater Salad, I hear Floyds Knobs is a very polished community!
Ahh, Triple Fake, I should have expected you to be holding LLFTLODQ's leash. I smelled your foul stench the minute I stepped on this board.
LOL, I like it medium well, Triple Fake.
Bishop or any of the Constables need to have their salery cut to a dollar a year like it used to be . We do not need them any more than a new expense like the new court. THESE ELECTED OFFICALS WHO GIVE ANYTHING TO BISHOP WILL PAY COME ELECTION TIME. Good luck Danny LEE WHITE AN KEVIN. YOU KEEP SUPPORTING THAT IDOT AND YOU WILL FALL.
Let's see, the media publicizes Perry's college grades -- and they are used as a talking point against him. (See above.)
Obama's college grades -- well, they just don't seem to exist anywhere, do they? No NY Times, CBS/ABC/NBC or Washington Post investigations into their absence.
That the media is in the tank for Democrats is a given, but don't you wish they'd at least admit it?
Re: Constables...
I said it a bunch of times before and will say it again. Fire all the constable positions and hire 4 more deputies. If constables want to run up and down the road and patrol then they want a Deputies job. Fire em all and make deputies out of those positions.
London's burning! London's burning!
All across the town, all across the night
Everybody's driving with full headlights
Black or white turn it on, face the new religion
Everybody's sitting 'round watching television!
London's burning with boredom now
London's burning dial 99999
I'm up and down the Westway, in an' out the lights
What a great traffic system - it's so bright
I can't think of a better way to spend the night
Then speeding around underneath the yellow lights
London's burning with boredom now
London's burning dial 99999
Now I'm in the subway and I'm looking for the flat
This one leads to this block, this one leads to that
The wind howls through the empty blocks looking for a home
I run through the empty stone because I'm all alone
London's burning with boredom now...
London's burning dial 99999
11:23 You're about as ignorant with your comment as ignorant can get. It's Obama's socialist ideology and the lack of ANY experience in ANYTHING that's the problem and NOT the color of his skin! It's ignorant minds like yours that make all of us conservatives look bad!
2012 is getting closer and hopefully we'll get relief from both Obama nationally and Bishop locally.
I told everybody to buy gold 2 years ago and some idiot said buy chickens because you can't eat gold..well how's them chickens working out, gold almost $1800 per oz...chickens .79 cents/lb.
Those little storms did more damage than it did any good. They produced a trace of rain but the lightning produced 7 differnt fires in Cooke Co. and by the time I turned my scanner off there were 3 going in Montague county.
Triple Fake, A white liberal weenie stinks just as much as a nigga liberal weenie, and I did see quite a few of em in the pictures. Wisconsin and Philadelphia already beat London to the punch. Stock up on baseball bats and .44 ammo.
Warren Jeffs looks like he is going to need some air conditioning also.
Triple Fake, hey dummy: I think the point was riotability as related to race AND the point of whether same can happen here. South Central Dallas is all nigger, all welfare AND close to home.
The Watts example was used since it was ALL white owned businesses that suffered.
The riots in England are all welfare niggers all the time and interesting/important in that negrahs make up less than 2% of the English population.
This riot wasn't a post soccer game melee. A cop killed a negrah criminal after a gunfight which was used as an excuse by the darkies to go ape.
You can be dumb. Just try not to show it so much. Dang, you are dumb.
O!
M!
G!
I now know what type of person Barry looks for attention from.
It is the person who possesses a scanner and complains about how things should be done.....never presenting a solution.
Umm, 12:30pm, there are lots of pics of rioters. Plenty of Whites and Blacks mixed together.
Its trash. And it crosses all boundaries.

you so stupid you muss be from alvoid.
OMG
Obama
Must
Go
Those Lindsey Wilson College volleyball scholarship dollars obviously didn't go far enough for Ms. Ruckel. However, cannot figure how the volleyball skills translate to the World's Oldest Profession. Would be interested how she chose that path. Was it a Career Day speaker?

Speaking in absolute terms ALWAYS leads to trouble. From an article in Wiki on the Watts riots: " Most of the physical damage was confined to white-owned businesses...", not all
Your assertion that the rioters in London were all black is refuted by the photos and video. It seems some white kids turned out just for the opportunistic party. (and the black population of England is closer to 3% than 2. I checked)
You're entitled to your bias, just have some facts to back it up. I suspect your claims about South central Dallas are bogus, too. I would have to research that. Except for the "close to home" part - I already know that's true.
My original post countered the claim that "We're already ther baby." Pointing out that a neighborhood in Dallas is predominantly black and economically disadvantaged is not relevant to the situation. A 45 (not my previous 35 estimate) year old race riot doesn't prove we're "ther".
I suppose a good law-abiding citizen such as yourself would never sink to the level of rioting if conditions permitted. As 12:09 suggested, I have stocked up on ammo, and my bullets have been instructed by my personal HR dept in equal opportunity employment.
Nice coinage of the word "riotability" though. I expect to see that in Webster's soon
College grades don't mean anything other than to prove that someone went to college. I think we're missing that somewhere now.
I'm not a fan of Perry's because of education in Texas, but Texas is lot better off than the rest of the country.
We could do worse than Perry, re-elect the idiot that is there now!
The city should get Tom Bishop a tricked out Big Wheel...
Is it safe to say that the thought pattern of the rioters in London is the same thought pattern of the Democrats and Liberals in the USA?

Awesome. But if a Democrat says that about a Republican, y'all get your panties in a wad.

Uhhh, not where education is concerned, you moron. We're well toward the bottom of the barrel on education.
Hell, just look at some of the posts on this blog--and your own reasoning.
Rage
Rage, looks who's calling whom a moron! Sure, education is needed, but OVERALL, Texas is better off than most of the country. And I'm a teacher. But we can't discount someone over only one area.
Obama is bad is so many areas and I don't see that education has improved any since he took office.
Thanks T.F. Rock on.
Barry, you should check out this new Baylor-related T-Shirt for sale!

How many should I sign you up for? :-)
Go Frogs!!!
In Texas schools where you see more white kids I bet the scores are better.
I think it's because most blacks and a lot of Mexicans are too busy doing drugs and committing crimes to study or somethin'.
OVERALL, Texas is better off than most of the country.
This is just so incredibly wrong, it defies imagination that anyone would say this.
It would make sense if you really are a teacher though. Because teachers are usually fairly stupid themselves, and/or want to justify their work by claiming they're better than they really are.
Rage
Rage, please put down the crack pipe. That shiat is making you crazy. You don't even know what your talking about.
YIKES
Maybe the 17 year old in jail for theft raised his $100.00 by stealing change and cd's out of all the vehicles up and down our road in the country this week. Somebody did and it was probably kids because nothing else was taken; but, they did open up one of the houses because it was uplocked and they let a cat out.
The people were asleep.
So, Skyler is staying?? Hope so.
I did not read your Skyler link about the baby, didn't want to cry.
Prostitution is the oldest profession in the world. What is your facination with it?
We are definitely better off than most of the company.
Shout out to grannycares who rocks!
Why doesn’t’ President Obama do the right thing; go before the American people and announce that he is withdrawing from the 2012 election; and for the next 17 months, he is going to devote himself, working with Congress, to put this Country on a more sound footing for the future?
Why won’t he establish his priorities in this order:
*JOBS
*Remove the impediments that causes the USA to be less
competitive (i.e., strangling regulations)
* Permit capitalization on our own national resources, vice
protecting beetles, bats, owls and snakes
* LEAD us to develop a sound fiscal footing both short and
long term
* Start the process (through action, NOT SPEECHES) of making
the US #1 in the world on public education (our system today is becoming an embarrassment)
* Provide basic national security, and stay out of other’s business – we appear to be having problems taking care of our own!
If he chooses this approach, he
may salvage his presidency as a “decent human being”. If he chooses to proceed with a strategy of “KILLING ROMNEY”, he will go down BEHIND Jimmy Carter and James Buchanan as a novice political operative from Chicago who oversaw the dismantling of the US economy,
leaving it in SHAMBLES.
Obama has proven that he is not up to the task, and should be man enough to admit it. If he
doesn’t, he will carry his party down with him.
It's comforting to realize that one's first impressions were right after all. I now believe yesterday's 8:00 p.m. commenter was telling the truth.
TO 12:06...BUT I GET $3.00 A DOZEN FOR MY EGGS
CHEF
MR HUDSON ALREADY HAS IT NEXT ELECTION!
10:39 is why we say NO to drugs!
Danny White needs a life if he supports Tom.
Well, Rage, my guess is that you couldn't be a teacher even if you wanted to be. I certainly wouldn't want my child to be in your classroom!
My husband travels to many other states for business in the financial area. He knows that Texas is better off than the rest of the country. But, then , again, Rage, who could tell you anything?
rage you are a uninformed jack ass. in texas we spent 42% of our last budget on education and will increase that to 43% of the overall budget with the new budget. as a teacher i see plenty of kids that show up for class with no intention of making a good grade or evening for that matter passing therefore bringing the states test averages down making an ignorant person think we were not as smart as we really are. the other problem we run into is that we get tons of kids who are illegal and dont know how to speak english that we have to provide a specialized teacher and support system for which cost valuable money that could be spent on other areas of education. as far as teachers being stupid all teachers have obtained a college degree in there area and some even have masters degrees so that they can teach students and try to get them to learn.
The go to Austin 10:41. No teacher I know supported sb1.
