Random Tuesday Morning Thoughts




It's already been 10 years since Amy Winehouse's death.   She was only 27?


  • Moments ago, Jeff Bezos completed his 10 minute flight into "space" -- around 65 miles up. For comparison, the moon is 238,900 miles away. Color me unimpressed. I'm more amazed that an underwear purchase from Amazon can arrive at my doorstep in less than 24 hours.



  • But that booster being able to land upright will always be amazing. 

  • Meanwhile on Earth, just a house blowing up in Plano. I assume it was natural gas related. 

  • This didn't get much press. The story says it was at West 4th and Houston around 1:30 a.m.  
    Looking north from that intersection towards Worthington Hotel.

  • Texas governor candidate suggests shooting door to door advocates of getting the COVID vaccine. 

  • Joe Barton had to resign from Congress because of texting inappropriate pictures of himself at age 67, and now he endorses the opponent of the widow of the guy who replaced him. Got all that?


  • That a former Bridgeport gal on the right. I've always said that I want her press agent. Story

  • It kind of looks like the beginning of the last June/July surge. 

  • We've got us a vaccine passport requirement for college. And that's coming from a Trump judge.

  • I've got a lot of questions about this pastor from First Baptist of Corsicana supposedly "live tweeting" his alleged life threatening battle with COVID.


  • Yep.

  • Rangers last three games: 0-5, 0-10, 0-14
