- I dreamed I spent hours roaming around a huge hospital like Parkland where most of the individuals in it were unwatched inmates.
- That was a heck of a lightening show in the county around 5:00 p.m. yesterday. Multiple lightening strikes with crashing thunder. Delicious.
- The "lone wolf" terror suspect arrested in New York a couple of days ago is yet another example of an incompetent fool used for law enforcement for publicity. Proof: Even the Feds wouldn't touch the case which is why the State is prosecuting it. The government had him "under surveillance for more than two years and made more than 400 hours of secret recordings" and he still didn't even know how to make a pipe bomb.
- The Decatur Lady Eagles lost to a bunch of home schooled kids last night. A very religious group of home schoolers at that.
- How much would I have to financially benefit before I would spend five days in a tent on a sidewalk outside of a store which includes missing Thanksgiving? $10,000. Maybe.
- Do gasoline prices seem to change by 30 cents overnight?
- Buddy Ryan and sons Rex Ryan, and Rob Ryan seem like a group of guys that would still laugh at Jeff Foxworthy.
- Individual frames of the Zapruder film. (It is November 22nd, by the way.)
- The Texas Theater, where Oswald was captured, is replaying the exact movies at the exact times that they rolled 48 years ago. Admission is $1.
- Mark Cuban has written an e-book. Let me guess, "Find what you love to do then go to work in that field." And then there will be a footnote that reads, "An do something simple like stream audio over the Internet and then sell the technology to a company that will never use it for $5.9 billion."
- There's something poetic about the TCU kicker kicking in a door in Denton to try and recover a stolen cellphone. I wonder if he took three steps back and two steps sideways before the kick?
- I was wrong when I said Tony Romo would have received a 15 yard penalty for trying to call a timeout when the team had none. The refs would have just ignored it, the clock would have run out, and it would be a 5 yard delay a of game.
- One of my old "skattershooting" columns from 2003 where I have a ton of JFK thoughts at the bottom.

The JFK assassination: Everybody knows a Tea Party guy did it!!!
It's less than a year to December 21 2012
So I guess you would prefer to wait until the dumbass actually MAKES a pipebomb before he is prosecuted. Like the guy who tried to blow up Times Square and thankfully was too dumb to succeed. Defense attorney thinking never ceases to make me wonder just how quickly your thinking would change if you or your family was in the crosshairs.
ABC exhaustively debunked the "multiple shooters" theories a few years back. As usual, almost all of the facts that were a "given" that support multiple shooters are just flat wrong or nonexistent. You didn't have to "take their word", either. They showed and illustrated it for all to see. For instance, the motorcycle cop's open mike "proving" the multiple shooter theory, absolutely requires him to be where they thought he was (for all the shot sounds to NOT be echoes), and this is ADMITTED by the sound technicians/scientists who studied the sounds. ABC conclusively showed (by clear photos) that he was not where they thought (farther away)--therefore, the sounds were just echoes. And yes, the bullet that hit Connelly makes a straight (not crooked) path through both Kennedy and Connelly, because Lincoln jumpseats (where Connelly was seated) are inboard from where Kennedy was seated. Etc., etc., etc.
8:57 is spot on. If he'd figured it out chances are he'd done it. On the home schooled team, would it have been viewed any different by you if they were just a bunch of regulat old kids being home schooled? I'm sure you find this offensive that people care enough about their kids getting a good education that they want to keep them out of the public school cesspool.
9:11, yes we do try to protect our kids and sometimes, the public schools are a cesspool. But what happens to those protected kids when they go to college? What happens when these kids grow up and have to work with "cesspoolers?"
But for every kid that we don't want ours to associate with, there are many that we do want our kids to be with. Skin color and backgrounds have nothing to do with it.
You only had to go to see the musical this weekend to know that there are MANY quality kids AND teachers AND parents in Decatur.
Christ didn't hide from the masses, he was out there with them.
You guys need to stop reading the comments. Sheesh
Miriah Jefferson is the real deal!! She is going to Uconn!
RE TCU Kicker: Funniest line ever written on the blog!
"Buddy Ryan and sons Rex Ryan, and Rob Ryan seem like a group of guys that would still laugh at Jeff Foxworthy."
While I will agree with that thought, it still seems you have an issue with succesful white men involved in sports. Seem to have a chip on you shoulder about it.
So in 2003, then college football player Cedric Benson broke into an apartment to recover his stolen TV; in 2011, a TCU college football player broke into an apartment to recover his stolen cellphone.
Some things never change.

besides the tired bit, your math skills are exceptional!!
If Janet Nepalitano spent two years tracking this nutcase, just think how much time and money she is spending on tracking right wing Christian conservatives who she thinks are the real terrorists. But I have yet to see her catch one before he blows something up like the ones they parade in front of the media with Muslim names.
I saw JFK's motorcade in Fort Worth. There's a photo in the National Archives that shows some of my 1st grade classmates welcoming the President to Texas. I was about a half block west of that photo in a black raincoat.

If Tea Party guy did it.
Thank you, Tea Party guy.
If not, good shot Oswald.
Your Foxworthy reference is bigoted.
Cannot make you feel good to look down at the people you despise.
10:16
You are one sick person.
We went over this last time, lightning does not have an "e" in it. Keep up with your old posts BG. By the way, solid entertainment lately.
The lone wolf terrorist, even incompetent, is dangerous. Obviously, the Feds strung him along to see how capable/willing he was. They determine the willingness exceeds the competency. Now imagine an actual competent terrorist finds this guy and encourages/instructs him in the finer points of bomb making. I would prefer they get this bozo off the streets before he completes his quest for fire
The way you worded it - makes it sound like Decatur lost to a group of mentally challenged Amish children who practice with a pumpkin. The fact that those kids can field a competitive team is pretty impressive.
Let's see...$10k for five days? C'mon, man! You're just hanging out in a tent in the middle of town. It's not like you're representing a client or something
It's impressive that you get a shot in at all three Ryans and Foxworthy at the same time. The Ryan boys are so obsessed with football, I doubt they find anything funny except their own one-liners. I doubt Buddy ever cracked a smile unless it was to savor a win over the Cowboys.
And Foxworthy - well, he paints with a fairly broad brush, but some of those corny jokes are relatable!
I bet it's a nice change of pace from all those weird dreams you've been having lately, to have a nice one where you visit all your former clients
Is this Gordos Corner revisited...
11:51, So let me get this straight. So 10:16 is sick and 8:52 isn't?
Didn't read 8:52's post at the time of my posting. Got it straight now?
Football players breaking into rooms to retrieve stolen items doesn't always work out.
df OJ
8:52 is attempting to be funny. 10:16 appears to be happy that our country's president was murdered.
If this about politics, Texas was a Democratic state back then. Remember LBJ???? Didn't they teach you anything about history?
So I guess you would prefer to wait until the dumbass actually MAKES a pipebomb before he is prosecuted.
He should at least commit a crime first.
DF United States Constitution
Rage
Yeah that team that beat Decatur has a girl that is going to play for UCONN. She is amazing!
Quit teasing about the president being murdered!
Rage, You're probably one of the ones that said Bush didn't connect the dots.

"It's less than a year to December 21 2012"
Please try to solve the problem again. Show your work.
2012 person's math skills < Tebow
What took him so long to take the plunge?
Don't let that home school stuff fool you, they practice and play year round. While Decatur kids are doing homework during the season, that "bunch of home schoolers" are playing basketball. They have no rules. So don't bash Decatur kids if you really don't have a clue.
