Things Like This Drive Me Crazy
On Meet The Press this morning, Sen. Tom Coburn said that because of his "medical training" he can tell if somebody is lying just by using their body language.
The video is worth the look (although I know most of you hate video downloads).
If you ask me, from his body language during the interview, I think he is the one that is lying.
If We Had Played One More Quarter . . .

And I Didn't Have A Desire To See The First One
This from the Dallas Morning News movie section:
"So why would any Hollywood [executive] ever greenlight anything but a cheapo horror sequel or remake? That's the lesson of Saw II. [It's] $31.7 million debut with a measly $4 million budget is a license to print money."

NBC's Dateline
I'm rarely shocked, but tonight's Dateline on NBC was incredible.
The show recruited an organization called Perverted-Justice.com (I can't get the link to work - probably from server overload) whose members pose as online underage boys and girls. The fake kids entered a chat room and suckered in adult guys to come over to a house to meet them. As they arrive (and, boy, do they arrive), the cameras caught each of them (about 20 guys in all) walking into the home's kitchen. (The fake online kids told them the door would be open). Then Dateline correspondent Chris Hansen would appear and ask them what they were doing.
Words cannot describe how amazing the show was.
A description by Hansen of the event is described here.
A Quiet Passing Into The Night
With little note, this appeared in the Update this week: "GRAVESIDE service for Claude Caraway, 55" .
Anyone who works around the courthouse square remembers Claude. He was the little guy that walked around (and I do mean walked around) the entire town handing out Messenger Updates every morning. I can't tell you the number of times he saw me and came walking across the street to hand me an Update. I always took one regardless of whether I had already read it or not.

The Guy Never Played Football
The local news tonight is all over a Royse City school bus carrying the JV team that turned over on its side on FM 1777. It looks like most of the injuries are minor.
In watching my most prized possession, TIVO, tonight, I caught Channel 8 breaking into ABC News at 5:30 to bring us the "breaking news"of the bus accident. This is what Roger Brown, the pilot of the WFAA helicopter, said as he was hovering over the crash scene:
"I think a lot of them were protected by their uniforms that they had on."
Uh......no.
