Random Friday Morning Thoughts




Ten year anniversary to the day.


  • RIP to any and all concepts of Sweetie Pie's.  

  • Last evening, we had the 600th execution by Texas since the reinstatement of death penalty in 1976. "Edward Busby kidnapped Laura Crane, 77, from the parking lot of a Fort Worth grocery store in January 2004. She suffocated in a car trunk." Man, this crime was a bad, bad case.  


  • An update from yesterday, but there's something odd about this.  They are not saying the remains are of the missing child, and they aren't saying exactly what they found. 


  • "On Tuesday evening, an Air Evac Lifeteam helicopter made a hard landing on the helipad atop Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas."  They had to bring in a crane to take it off the rooftop. 
  • Yesterday Abbott said that he will "champion creating a statewide prosecutor and the ability to impeach what he characterized as rogue district attorneys."  So much for local control. 


    • It's over.  At least it certainly is if he goes through with this.  He'll just line-up the January 6th Insurrectionists, and hand out a big bag of your money to everyone of them. And the masses will just shrug. 


  • Say what?

  • Of course.

  • Russia launched a massive and deadly attack on Ukraine yesterday. 

  • Didn't the vice-president give a big speech on his anti-fraud commission yesterday?

  • Report from the Wall Street Journal: 

  • CHI-na update. 
    • Good grief. 

    • New this  morning: Trump's first post about his trip while on his way back to the U.S. has been made. It was about his ballroom.  

    • China strong-armed him on Taiwan, and Trump offered no resistance. Reporter's asked him about it on the plane. 

  • This golfer was late to his tee time yesterday morning at the PGA Championship and was assessed a two shot penalty. After the round, he gave us a couple of great quotes.

  • Lauren Whitener Clock: 6 years and 316 days.
