Random Monday Morning Thoughts

 

  • Texas hospitalizations: 3,192.

  • A lady died in the custody of the Wise County Jail on Friday night. Jennifer Leinberger, 46, who listed an address of Springtown, died for undetermined reasons. She had picked her daughter up at the jail earlier in the day but was then stopped about two miles away for her own outstanding warrant. I've got a rumor I'm working on. 
  • It was a heck of a weekend at, and leading up to, Trump's visit to Walter Reed. Let's review.
    • Those with the red underline got the COVID at a super-spreader event.

    • Chris Christie caught it to. 

    • Kelley Ann Conway's very wheels off daughter caught it from her mom.

    • Is this what it looks like when you catch something "just like the flu"?

    • The "lead doctor", Dr. Sean Conley, had to explain why he lied to us about Trump not receiving oxygen on Friday. His explanation might be the weirdest statements of a multitude of weird statements: "I didn't want to give any information that might steer the course of illness in another direction." Huh? 

    • They moved Trump in front of a couple of desks with the same props so he could "review documents" and sign his name to a blank piece of paper. 


    • Then Trump decided to try and kill a few secret service agents for a photo-op. 



  • If you haven't seen the video of this guy sucker punching someone at the Buc-ee's in Denton, you need to. What a coward. 

  • Unless my eyes deceive me, it looks like that pretty big hotel by Brookshires in Bridgeport has locked its doors and shut off its lights.
  • A funny move by Lindsey Graham's opponent during their debate Saturday night. 

  • Keep an eye on this especially if there was a bodycam.  And it might be time for Texas to find a different agency than the Texas Rangers to investigate these things. 

  • College football: (1) Man, TCU has the Evil Empire's number. (2) I generally hate TCU but I really like that sophomore QB. (3) OU has lost 3 of its four last four and has dropped out of the Top 25. They were 67-5-2 against Iowa State. (4) Baylor lost in double overtime after a questionable call. They stole four games just like that last year. It all averages out. (5) If I ever turn on a Texas Tech game, I'm always wildly entertained. (6) Pic of the week. The score at the time makes if funnier . . . . 

  • It's probably a bad sign when seven of Texas AG Ken Paxton top assistants alert the federal authorities that he's taking bribes

  • Good lord. Last night a child was killed during a carjacking which occurred during a weekend custody swap in the parking lot of Hugely Hospital off I-35 near Burleson.  An arrest has been made.
  • I stumbled across Old School on network CBS last night. I stuck with it about 10 minutes. What was left after the editing for "regular TV' would be as awful as you think.
