Random Tuesday Morning Thoughts


  • Former WFAA anchor Debbie Denmon has now been hired as "Director of Communications" for Dallas County District Attorney's Office. I guess they have learned from the Tarrant County DA's office. 
  • Clint Eastwood was only supposed to speak for three minutes at the Republican National Convention. 
  • At 7:57 a.m. on Sunday, I was watching the first pitch of a softball game. While we were driving to the game, the sun broke the horizon prompting Mrs. LL to say, "What is that thing?" Funny. 
  • Somehow I've become the official scorer at any softball game -- everyone comes by to ask or verify what the score is. An opposing coach even came up to me on the other side of the fence and said, "Substitution. 26 for 2." 
  • D Magazine is doing its annual "Most Beautiful Woman In Dallas" contest.  Mrs. LL suggested that I do one for Wise County but stressed that I would have to publicize that she would be in charge of it so people would actually take part. I'm not sure what that meant. 
  • I really don't watch ESPN's Sport Center that often but when I do I always wonder why they give so much "analysis" instead of simply showing highlights. Man, they talk a lot.
  • H.E.B. grocery stores has bought 24 acres in northern Tarrant County. Those stores make me think of Waco. 
  • I took the tollway from north of DFW Airport to Frisco this weekend. I now proclaim that to be the greatest freeway in North Texas. 
  • I hung some hooks on the garage wall this weekend but made a horrible measuring mistake. Mrs. LL told me it "looked good." After reading this, she's now headed to the garage for a giggle. 
  • College football quick hits: (1) SMU's quarterback Garrett Gilbert is awful, and I find it odd that he has graduated from UT, (2) Alabama's freshman running back TJ Sheldon is going to be a star, (3) the catch of the year was by an Ohio State receiver, (4) back in February I railed against Oklahoma State playing Savannah State -- they won 84-0 on Saturday, (5) Savannah State plays Florida State this weekend, and (6) One UT player killed another UT player allowing Montana State to score on what would otherwise be a short pass play (and I can't find the video.) 
  • I think Anthony Bourdain is cool. 
  • Mrs. LL this weekend: "When I saw the place, I knew it wasn't a good sign." Me: "I don't know, I thought the font on it outside was kind of neat." Her: [Just looking at me.] Me: "That's a little typography humor for you." Her: "It's come to that, has it?"

Clint Eastwood was scheduled to speak 5 minutes at the GOP convention. He was allowed to say what the Romney campaign team steers clear of about Obama. If anyone really wants to understand what Obama's agenda is just go see the movie 2016 or read the book "The Roots of Obama's Rage". Or think about why anyone would want the son of a Communist, the grandson of a Communist, the young teenager whose mentor was a communist, the friend of a terrorist, the church member of a Jeremiah Wright to be the President of the USA!!!

What, no pre-conference thoughts on the DNC? I'm amazed! I can't wait to hear Barney Franks myself. You know he is the poster child for Obama's same-sex marriage proposal. And North Carolina has voted overwhelmingly against it. That should add some drama!!

Of yes, and bring your photo id. Voting is not important enough for photo id, but to get inside the convention, you better have it. Sheesh...............

Ghetto HEEB? I loved that place.

D Magazine is doing its annual "Most Beautiful Woman In Dallas" contest.

They need to nominate more black women. If they don't, all the black students will vote for one black chick and she'll end up being Homecoming Queen. Errr, I mean "Most Beautiful."

Or think about why anyone would want the son of a Communist, the grandson of a Communist, the young teenager whose mentor was a communist, the friend of a terrorist, the church member of a Jeremiah Wright to be the President of the USA!!!

YOu left of "again." Suck it.

Bacon, you are wrong again. She looks better than most women at Wal-Mart, but she isn't blog-worthy.

The guy that wrote and produced the movie 2016 was on Bill Maher last Friday and he admitted he had never had never met or spoken to the President or anyone in his family or friends. And yet he makes a movie trying to "explain what he is really like."

And Bill Maher cited many things he said about the President as factually wrong.

Doesn't it worry you guys when President Obama's opponents have to make-up stuff about Obama when they try to convince you to vote for Romney?

HEB makes me think of South Texas. You can't swing a dead cat without hitting an HEB south of San Antonio.

There was a rumor HEB bought the Cornerstone Church property. Never got confirmation on that.

This is Tony Bourdain's last season of No Reservations.

Montana State Bobcats, Wyoming Cowboys. What's the difference, other than one school beat Chadron State in Bozeman on Thursday and the other got their heinies whipped by The Empire in Austin on Saturday night?

RTG-REALLY!! keep that fat broad away from the buffet line! Proof that just because they make it in your size, DOES NOT mean you can wear it!

The RTG is a 2 at best used to wonder about the obsession with chubby big boob women on this blog. Then I moved to Wise County and visited Wal-Mart, today's girl is skinny compared to Wise Couty average. Well to each his own.

I keep hoping someone would lift some of his dna and see who Obama is. A substantial percentage of the population are unrelated to the man they believe to be their father.

Had not heard that the H. E. Butt family grocery empire was eying the Cornerstone Church property. Primo real estate in San Antone. Charles Butt has taken the company down the right road on almost every business gamble. Back to Cornerstone: anybody knows what Pastor John Hagee pulls down in compensation now? Just wondering.

Bill Maher has never worried about accuracy before. He can sit down and shut up now. He is less than an idiot.

HEB=best grocery store ever. I grew up in Waco, and miss them. Brookshires is striving to be an HEB, or Tom Thumb, but it won't happen. Marketplace?? Hebert E Butts would have shuddered to find that much dust on products in his store..filthy place.

ESPN has the channel you want for highlights. It's called ESPNEWS. It's virtually all highlights. If it's not on your cable or satellite provider you need to get a new provider. On TWC it is right next to ESPN (175) on channel 176.

D'Souza never met the Obamas. He tried in Kenya but feared for his life. Why is that a criteria for writing a historically accurate book anyway? Did Stephen Ambrose know Lewis and Clark or did he write Undaunted Courage from his research?

At least someone has told you that you made something good in your garage. That could lighten up the day though. Thanks for having these random thoughts shared here.
