- Regarding the suicide of the Highland Park man, is there not a decent photograph of him? The only one released is grainier than a Taliban video.
- Of all ways to commit suicide, can there be anything harder than stabbing yourself? Pulling a trigger has to be hard enough but plunging a knife in you? Good grief.
- And I'll rant and rave against the Medical Examiner's office again. They officially ruled the death a suicide. They can't possibly know that. All they can say is the death was caused, for example, by a severed artery. The cops may be able to piece things together, but the ME's examination of a body isn't enough.
- There's something not quite right about that case.
- Mark Cuban's brother, Brian, was on Fox 4 last night discussing the Penn State scandal. He was wearing an untucked polo button down shirt and jeans as the guy next to him was dressed in a suit. That's the Cuban way: Trying to be cool over substance. (Cuban even acted like his brother when he through out such things as "you don't know the definition of 'lack of institutional control'. "You have to look at the NCAA defintition!")
- Motorcyle chase death in near Saginaw..
- I was talking to a family member about my dental work and the fact that I have a trip planned to Mexico. After mentioning the drug violence, he said, "At least it'll be easy to identify your body." Pretty funny.
- A new poll has Cruz leading Dewhurst. If I'm Dewhurst, I pull those Chinese ads now and fire my political consultant the day after the election.
- The Kids In The House will sometimes refer to a gecko as a geico. I know who to blame.
- Josh Hamilton is now selling Christian T-shirts. As his wife said about his upcoming contract, "It's not about the money."
- Radio is a brutal business. Longtime Austin sports talk host Chip Brown (who covers the Longhorns probably better than anyone) walked into the building this week and was told by the new owners he was fired.

The late rocker dude Elliott Smith committed suicide by stabbing himself in the heart MULTIPLE TIMES.
I would have thought multiple stabs to the heart would be like multiple gun shots to the head.
They were pretty sure it was murder at first, but nope.
Boy where are those girls hanging out. People sitting in chairs dressed in regular clothes and bang we have 2 gals in bikini swim suites.
Cuban's brother normlly talks about reforming marijuana laws.
The Beatles names and songs will still be talked about 500 years from now...if we're still around after December 21 2012
The better take on the Penn State scandal was Dale Hansen's "Unplugged" last night. I know, he is insufferable at times, but boy was he right! Says something about our nation's unholy worship of almighty "fooball" when it is deemed more important by those in authority and "in the know" to just hush up and ignore REALLY bad things, than possibly "upset" a successful Division 1 football program for a short moment (if they had immediately sacked him and reported him when they FIRST found out about his behavior). Absolutely disgusting.
"Of all ways to commit suicide, can there be anything harder than stabbing yourself?"
You need to study up on seppuku(also known as harakiri) which has been practiced in Japan for thousands of years.

BG, I'll be needing a mid-morning "pick-me-up" and I'm hoping you already knew that when you chose today's RTG.
What exactly are "bikini swim suites?"
BG, it ain't over till it's over, but in light of the "Cruz leads Dewhurst" poll (in which, by the way, among those who are "very excited" about the election, Cruz leads 59%-36%,) do you wish to make a positive comment about the influence of the Tea Party movement?
It it just me, or is the Beatles reference above random? Smoke em if you got em.
9:15
those are the REALLY small, tight hotel rooms that you swim in
WK I would love to know your opinion on the VP rumor out today for Romney.
I'm excited about it. I hope you are too.

Re: Cuban comment...
through or threw????
There's something not quite right about that case.
Sounds like a Darlie Routier case.
ted cruz is a lying slime ball he will do more harm then good in washington we need dewhurst in office not ted cruz the communists friend
1019 - I have a huge amount of respect for CR. I dread the crap that would be directed toward her, though. They'll treat her worse than they did Cheney. I'm not sure if she'll take that job, but she's an impressive choice.
Thanks WK. Agreed.
Suicide (Latin suicidium, from sui caedere, "to kill oneself")
Isn't this what the Highland Park guy did?
Quincy, M.E.
Romney-Rice vs. Obama-Clinton? Now wouldn't that be interesting?
Personally, CR isn't conservative enough for me, but anybody with an IQ over, let's say 14, would be better than Biden's dumbass. That man literally has to hsmile slight case of Down's Syndrome. Having said that, I don't see her taking the position. She'd be crucified by the media, even though she is just as black as our president, because, gasp, she's a republican. End of story.
Barry, you should not this. The ME gets the body and all info the investigating police reports. The ME not only rules cause of death but also manner of death. In this case with all evidence the ME ruled manner of death as suicide. It is his job, though it can be changed if new evidence were to be found and, it can be argued in court.
We don't have to every grammer mistake brought to our attention people. geez
Yo Bu...
Check the calendar, it's another Friday the 13th.
11:47 Those people have no life.
11:20 Any one taking that position would be crucified by the left leaning media who by the way have no credibility in the first place.
They say the HP man had started a new medication, have known that to do bad things to good people.
We don't have to every grammer mistake...?
It's for the illiterate dorks like you that we do it. Come on, give us some more ammo, Webster.
I think the best way to commit suicide would be swallowing sodium cyanide like Michael Marin did in the Arizona courtroom.
Regarding the Highland Park attempted murder and successful suicide, I have a prediction. Chantix or Ambien. Write it down.

She is hot hot GJ BG
1:50 Ambien to sleep
"If I'm Dewhurst, I would fire my political consultant the day after the election." Skippy, you out did yourself on that one. Seeing as his political career is over, do you think he is going to need a consultant anymore? SHEESH
Just wait another ten years and all the comments will be typed in texting lingo..no one will know how to spell and we will not know how to read the new lingo or we will be dead...just saying
It won't that long. They're already using bilingual text down south.
If I was close to Penn State I would go to a clothing store for a little boy maniquin and put it in a bent over position in front of Paterno.
How would Romney flip his flop on requiring a strict pro-lifer for veep? CR has taken a pro-choice position.
Hi Barry:
As a previous commenter mentioned regarding the ME ruling, their job is to determine not only the cause of death but the manner of death. This could include homicide, suicide, accident, natural causes, or unknown. Trust me I watch a lot of TV crime shows :) Anyway if you're looking only at the cause of death this is compartmentalizing things a bit much. For example, an ME should say something more in the case of a gunshot victim than that they died of blood loss. If there were witnesses that saw the person being shot, and the forensic evidence (that the ME does indeed evaluate) is consistent with this, then they may recommend that it be ruled a homicide. And then the police, DAs office takes over...
CR is strict on no late-term abortions, and is also against tax payers paying for abortions.
CR is black, and will be bad mouthed in Wise by anyone who shops at Tractor supply.
I would vote for CR as president. It sounds like a better choice than the other two guys.
Yes, the statue of Paterno should come down. He's as guilty as the pervert Sanduski for allowing the abuse to continue.
