Random Tuesday Morning Thoughts



  • I'm late on this, but that Planned Parenthood shooting was insane. A dead cop. A dead veteran. But Ted Cruz was quick to point out that this had nothing to do with abortion, "Well, it's also been reported that he was registered as an independent and a woman and transgendered leftist activist, if that's what he is." Good lord, man. 
  • The Chicago shooting of the teenager by a police officer -- shooting him 16 times -- went under the radar since the shocking video was released over the Thanksgiving holidays. 
  • I'm feeling better.  Mrs. LL referred to me as being "under the weather". I hadn't heard that phrase in forever. (And I think the Dogs In The House know when I'm sick. And maybe even that mean Cat.)
  • Why are Wise County Deputies doing traffic stops on 287 and in the Southern part of the county? Something seems odd. 
  • Who would have thought that Lake Bridgeport would be two feet over its level in December? 
  • The Senior in House playing her flute upstairs is a beautiful sound.
  •  “The simple and undeniable fact is the overwhelming majority of violent criminals are Democrats” - Ted Cruz during an interview on Monday. “There’s a reason why the Democrats for years have been viewed as soft on crime,” Cruz continued. “The Democrats know convicted felons tend to vote Democrat.”  When did Ted Cruz go insane? Or is he just trying to out-Trump Trump? 
  • I said it two months ago. You are watching the implosion of the GOP. The Republicans need a new face to save that party. 
  • What happened to Carter Haynie, 27, of Bridgeport who is mentioned in the obits in the Update?
  • The end of the Cleveland/Baltimore game last night was beyond entertaining.
  • I watched the Charlie Brown Christmas Special last night for what might have been the first time in 20 years. I had forgotten how smartly written it was (and how Snoopy was an incredible character in the  background.)]
