Decatur Water Shortage

From Fox 4 News tonight: "The Wise County town of Decatur is now under a water emergency. Crews working on the 380 expansion west of Decatur cut through the town's main water supply today. Two of the city's water towers were almost drained by the rupture. The water plant's storage was, though, intact. All residents are being asked to cut water use until the line is repaired." So don't water your lawns.

If you ever become the subject of headline #1 above, would you think your life went terribly wrong at some point?

Don't hit Santa, but it's pretty funny when you do. And I love the "ooooowwww" when you hit the Will Ferrell looking guy. Here.

Strange Sports Note Found At Lunch

BYU and Oregon play in the Las Vegas Bowl tonight. "BYU has 31 married players and six with children." (At least, that's what the Star Telegram tells me.)

Even here in Wise County? No way!

How Is This Possible?

You only have to watch 45 seconds of this. ESPN's Desmond Howard breaks down the Holiday Bowl between California and Texas A&M. Some how, some way, he believes that the University of Texas will be playing California and even goes so far as to reference Texas players. Everybody else on the set just stands by and watches the carnage. (This occurred two days ago during the TCU bowl game.) So what does he do later? ESPN puts him on a different show to say he "mis-spoke." Say what? You didn't accidentally say a word you didn't mean to. You didn't know who was playing in a bowl game that you were paid to analyze! Incredible.

> Story. But I am worried a little about this statement from this guy's attorney: "We are still as confident as we were before that he's not guilty, and focused on proving that," Mr. Wilson said.
