Carnage?

As I sit in a restaurant in Boyd (don't ask), I've seen a ton of
emergency vehicles go by.

I really don't know where Davidson is located, but I looked up last night at a TV in a Mexican restaurant (Oscar's) and saw they had won a game to get into the final eight. We all love an underdog.

But this pic has a lot going for it.
- First we have the hot chick holding up the sign. If that's all we had, it would be a success.
- But then we've got the guy with the "#1 Fan" shirt. Always. Always a bad look. (It's not quite as bad as "#1 Dad" but close.)
- Then we've got the guy on the right who wants to lean in to be sure to get in the picture. Uh, buddy, just where do you think the lense was going to be focused upon. Oh, right.

Good News For Some Wise County Residents

Story. It's also very good news for one particularly sex-obsessed guy who just happens to be in Texas this weekend.

(Comments off. This story has quite the history in Decatur and Wise County.)

(And thanks to emailer for pointing this out to me.)

Awwwww

A buddy of mine just became the proud papa of this little nipper.

But check his stats: 10.5 pounds and 23.5 inches.

P.S. Be sure to get his DipTet and "mind his little fontanelle, now."

37 Year Old Woman Has What?

Story.

I'm pretty sure I've never had to express a formal position on nipple rings. I personally find them a pain to put in every morning, but that's just me. I have sensitive skin. But this lady was on Fox 4 a second ago complaining about airport officials making her remove her areola jewelry. (She's the lady in black. The woman in pink is a LA lawyer who will kill her mother to get in front of a camera.)

Ma'am, let me say this in the kindest of terms, you do not need to have anything to do with nipple rings. Use this as a learning experience. Give 'em up.

Random Criticism

From an email: I'm surprised and disappointed that you haven't had an entry regarding the Decatur Mock Trial team winning the Texas State Championship (the first 3A school to win state I believe). They will soon be competing for the National Title. Love or hate DHS, it is a pretty impressive accomplishment for a podunk 3A school in Wise County. Huh? Just so these kids can come back in a few years and cripple my practice by taking away all my clients? No way. I'll never mention it.

Bridgeport PD Hires First African-American Drug Dog

City claims dog was "most qualified" and "not given preference over Shepard dogs that just happen to be German." Trainer promises to "take a bite out of crime" even though "cultural differences" may delay initial arrests. Dog strangely hits on Cristal Champagne at Moonshine Liquors.

Yankee Invasion

That's the big news today as DFW was announced to be the fastest growing area in the nation last year. I believe it. Traffic in the metroplex is insane. Just 10 years ago, you could easily cruise from Decatur to downtown Fort Worth and never hit your brake lights. These days, sometimes traffic is backed up on 287 as it merges onto I-35. And don't even think about a quick trip to Northeast Mall. (Sidenote: Did you know that a Best Buy is being built at Golden Triangle Blvd and I-35?)

And although Wise County continues to grow, its not keeping pace with Tarrant County. It's an odd phenomenon in north Tarrant County where it seems that housing subdivisions pop up everywhere but tend to stop at the Wise County line.

Random Legal Note

I'm not exactly sure where Potter County is (and I don't really care enough to search The Google) but a very old defendant accused of marijuana possession was found not guilty this week. Not because it wasn't proven that he possessed the plant (that grows naturally out of God's earth) - he did. Instead, the judge allowed the jury whether to consider the defense of (medical) necessity. They did. He walked after eleven minutes of deliberations. The state prosecutors are upset. It's probably more of a case of a jury not caring about marijuana possession and looking for an excuse to tell the State to quit wasting their time.
