Random Update Thought
How many people show up for something like this?:
"CHICO BAND — The Chico High School Band Boosters will meet tonight at 6 at the band hall."

"All right, all right, all right"
People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive goes to Matthew McConaughey.
I finished tied for 3,423rd with Al Roker.
A Flashback From Way Too Long Ago
E-Bay is running a commercial with the Monkees's hit "Daydream Believer" being prominently featured.
As a kid, I remember the Monkees and Gilligan's Island being on TV in prime time opposite of each other on different channels. (Lordy, I'm old). My brother loved the Monkees. I, shamefully now, loved Gilligan's Island. My parents, being the diplomats even then, would alternate weeks as to which program we got to watch.
Anyway, I couldn't help but perk up tonight when I heard the voice of Davey Jones as the EBay commercial rolled.
Ok, Maybe I'm Illiterate
Mav's owner Mark Cuban recently called The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand as the most influential book he read in college. He said, "It was incredibly motivating to me. It encouraged me to think as an individual, take risks to reach my goals, and responsibility for my successes and failures. I loved it. I don't know how many times I have read it, but it got to the point where I had to stop because I would get too fired up."
I feel stupid. I've never heard of it.
Cue The Banjos
"A pregnant 37-year-old Georgia woman who eloped with a 15-year-old boy was in jail on charges of child molestation, authorities in the southern state said on Tuesday. Lisa Lynnette Clark was arrested last week in Hall County, Georgia a day after a judge married her and the unidentified teenager. Clark was being jailed in Gainesville, about 50 miles northeast of Atlanta.
"Clark and the teen had a sexual relationship, perhaps for as long as two years, according to the Hall County Sheriff's Department, which is investigating the case. Clark's marriage to the boy does not protect her from prosecution, police said.
"Under Georgia law, teenagers may marry as long as they are at least 16 and have the permission of a parent or guardian. Those restrictions are waived, however, when a female applicant is pregnant.
"In a statement, the judge who issued the marriage license said she had complied with state law. "

Am I Delirious?
I think I just saw Elton John and Dolly Parton sing John Lennon's "Imagine" on the Country Music Awards.
(Looking for picture).
The Slain Dallas Police Officer Story Is Incredibly Sad
He had married his bride two months earlier.
Cool Commercial
Anyone seen that Gatorade commercial where they talk about how important a fraction of a second can be? It's so bizarre. They changed the video footage of "The Catch" by Dwight Clark to show him missing it, changed Jordan's buzzer-beater 1989 shot over the Cavs to have him miss it, changed Derek Jeter's crazy cutoff play in the playoffs vs Oakland a couple years ago to have the A's runner be safe at the plate.
Jennifer Aniston . . .
is GQ's first "Woman Of The Year". And, for the cover photo, she forgot her shirt.
Seasonal Moods
I think this is my favorite time of year. I like it cold. I like two major holidays on the horizon. I like the chance of snow in the next couple of months. I kind of like driving home in the dark after work.
I like reflecting.
287 Near Decatur Shut Down?
WBAP just reported that but I didn't catch if it was north or south of Decatur and/or whether both lanes were shut down.
How's that for information?
