- Who has two thumbs, ran an 8 mile Turkey Trot, did not take a nap, stayed up later than expected on Thanksgiving night to watch the Aggies and Horns ending, and then got up at 4:00 a.m. to drive three sleeping humans to north of Little Rock for lunch? This guy!!!
- I'm delirious.
- So delirious I created a "Do you have a ticket to the carnival" game today with a four year old that required her to bring me every card in a playing card deck so that I could check her ticket to see if it were valid. Even I don't know what that means.
- If I pump The Ticket through my phone into the auxiliary jack in the car on this road trip, do I have a problem?
- Back to the Aggies and The Evil Empire. I have never seen a UT offense that was in so much complete chaos. Then again, I've never seen an Aggie team that gives away games in the second half more than this Aggie group. Absolutely amazing.
- Aggie coach Mike Sherman would have been fired last night if he hadn't been given a huge contract extension last year.
- I don't mind admitting that I get a little emotional during the Turkey Trot run. I put a bunch of songs on the iShuffle from my past and, when they pop up in random mode, I reflect upon where I was when the song became important to me.
- The new Omni hotel in downtown Dallas is really cool looking.
- There was the weirdest fog cover about 200 feet above ground level at the beginning of the race. When the course looped us back around to downtown Dallas, we were less than a quarter of a mile away from downtown and couldn't see the top of any building.
- I got to watch the Arkansas/LSU game in Arkansas amongst Arkansas fans. Kinda cool.
- I'm in the house of Mrs. LL's grandparents who are still pretty feisty despite their age. The grandmother is a huge football fan and actually used the phrase "unabated to the quarterback" when we were talking about an offsides penalty during the game.
- I intentionally didn't look at the comments for the last couple of days. Even I need a break every now and then.
- The Runaway Bay Golf Cart Assault probably had the local PD going insane.
- The Rifleman just came on (in the Arkansas house) and I said, "Let's watch Lucas McCain kill another person in self defense!" All I heard were crickets.
- But I just looked up and Lucas is building up a ton of resentment towards this episode's Bad Guy. If I'm the Bad Guy, I wouldn't make a quick movement towards any weapon.
- Oops. Too late.
- On the morning road trip I started listening to a new audiobook, Chuck Klosterman's "Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs: A Low Culture Manifesto". I wished someone would have told me that I was going to be bombarded with F Bombs during a discussion of love, John Cusack, and Coldplay. (Thank goodness the rest of the car was asleep.)
- I went to my parents for lunch on Thanksgiving and took along a four year old niece of Mrs. LL's. Words cannot do justice to the nursery rhyme presentation she provided to the Extended Family Unit where she repeated (over and over and over) a word that sounded soooooo inappropriate for a family gathering. I don't think I've ever seen my brother laugh so hard.
- My Halftime Cowboy Game Observation upon seeing Pitbull take the stage, "I bet that's a real crowd pleaser." Mrs. LL (about three minutes later): "Oh, I get it!!!"
- A triple murder in Desoto?

I also noticed people died frequently around Lucas McCain, but he never seemed to get hauled to jail by Micah. Strange. And Paladin. If I saw him ride into town, I would immediately ride out for a few days.

Skippy, the reason for the 'crickets' is that most people know that Lucas McCain was more likely to solve problems through tact and negotiation, and only used the lever-gun as a last resort.
He wasn't in the 'shoot-first-ask-questions-later' mode.
Everyone knows Lucas Boy was a righteous shooter. The proper response to seeing The Rifleman is "PA! PA!".
One of your best posts.
The Lucas mccain, pitbull, and neices dirty word had me going.
No other way to travel! I can't travel without The Ticket as well. No problems just good taste.
thanks fer this post Barry. i enjoyed it
way different from some of the stupid liberal crap u spew out sonetime.
RAB Police are hiding behind trees at the Golf Course waiting for someone to show up on the course that fits the description or give someone a DWI while driving their cart.
Sorry for the man that was assaulted, but chances of RAB PD catching the guy are crazy.
Why haven't they given a description so the public can help?
They act like everything is so secret. Funny how in a small town news gets around anyways!
Aggies.... ROFLMFAOAY!!!!
Worst Texas offense in forever and you still cannot beat them.
Enjoy that new conference. SEC? LOL!!!!
Adios Little Brothers
Who has two thumbs, won the family drankin game last night, and feels like poop today? This guy...
"Let's watch Lucas McCain kill another person in self defense!"
Lucas seemed to spend more time in town finding trouble than he did ranching.
Troubling lack of work ethic if you ask me.
And his illegally modified assault rifle was a menace to society.
Well it was a resident that takes the prize for longest living at the Bay,maybe not the eldest but for sure the longest.
He could make his way home I'm sure, and if he didn't/couldn't the friendly popo should make sure he does get home to a warm comfy bed.
Not only did he always get the bad guy, he could do it with either hand.
Nikita Khrushchev allowed "The Rifleman" as one or the only American TV show to be broadcast on Russian television during his time as the Premier of Russia and during the Cold War. He admired the family values in the show, and wanted to meet Chuck Conners, which he did. Lucas McCain was credited with the easing of Cold War tensions somewhat. Nikita did not get to go to Disneyland, but did get to meet the Rifleman.
Lucas took care of his ranching duties and son Mark, but defended the 99% people of North Fork from the 1% conservative corn dog bullies when necessary. His rifle was not illegal, it was not fully automatic. Each shot had to be manually fired even with the special flip trigger device. If Lucas had an illegal weapon, there would probaly have been fewer episodes, as he would have killed all the bad guys (1%) quicker.

You seem to know so much about the case, why don't you just volunteer your 10 cents and help out. Probably just like the rest of the morons and talk a big game with llimited information and make your own story. Seems to be the norm for a small town Runaway Bay resident who think their City should be a lawless community to those who reside there and arrest all outsiders. You obviously have nothing better to do than quarterback from a chair and throw down a few beers. Hope they catch the sorry life form that did this.
Swamp trash in the picture!
What was the deal with Tech yesterday? Dirty players? Sorry coach? Both?
