New Food

A high ranking police investigator told me today that Quizno's had opened in Decatur in the convenience store that also houses Burger King (at 287/51). Me loves me some Quizno's. Me also miss the old weird Quizno's commercial.

Dr. Rohr Tidbit Buried In Morning News

"Elizabeth Rohr, convicted last week of defying a judge's order to turn her five youngest children over to their father, had a stun gun used on her by jailers Friday. Tom Reedy, a spokesman for the Denton County sheriff's office, said Dr. Rohr was not complying with book-in procedures and repeatedly sat on the floor without moving. The 46-year-old woman was beginning a six-month jail sentence for contempt. Judge L. Dee Shipman gave her the sentence for her behavior during a weeklong trial on a charge of interference with child custody. Dr. Rohr was convicted of the felony, but jurors did not give her jail time.

Mattie's

The old Mattie's restaurant is going to become something called Sweetie Pie Ribeyes (or something very odd like that). I don't know what in the heck they are doing up there, but construction workers have been banging on that building for two months or more. And they are applying for a liquor license.

It's Teen Hispanic March Day Two In Dallas

Story. Any school with the guts to crack down on these absentees?

Chief of Staff

Puppies v. A Cat

I don't own a dog. I don't own a cat. But this Google Video of a bunch of puppies approaching a cat is really funny. Nothing ever happens, but it's worth a look nonetheless.

Alternative To Microsoft Office

I don't know why I just thought about this, but if you want to download an Office Suite that is very similar to Microsoft Office but....one difference....it's free, you should check out OpenOffice.org . The download is huge, but it's a nice piece of software. I've even used it in court before. The Spreadsheet and Power Point clone are great. It can be found at...uh...openoffice.org. A PC Magazine review of it can be found here.

It's Been A Bad Month . . .

. . . for soon to be former DA of Denton County Bruce Isaacks. First he loses his race for re-election in the Republican primary. Now his teenage son manages to get arrested for the second time. Shooting a shotgun may be common-place in Wise County. But it's another thing to do it in the backyard of a Carrollton neighborhood.

Global Warming

I've never been much of a environmentalist (I spend too much time inside), but I believe in global warming. I'm amazed to learn that the big brained George Will does not. For those who care (maybe two or three of you), here is a clip of Will's position on the issue as expressed Sunday on This Week.

Friendly Sean Penn

I never really watched much of Friends but I just landed on it while I channel surfed by TBS. The episode (check that - one of the four episodes on tonight) had Sean Penn as a guest star. I never knew he did that. Crazy and moody Sean Penn guest starred on Friends. I think that's odd. Edit: But he gets points for having a "torture doll" of Ann Coulter.

NFL Scheduling

It's Spring so it's time to think about football. Dallas opens up at Jacksonville. ESPN, which has Monday Night Football this fall, has scheduled two back to back games on September 11th (With the first one starting at 6:00 p.m. CST). The Tampa Bay Bucs come to Texas Stadium on Thanksgiving. And the NFL has added a Thanksgiving night game. The story here. I don't think the complete schedules will be revealed for a few weeks. Edit: I overlooked the first Sunday night primetime NBC game will be Indy Colts at New York Giants on Sept. 10. Yep, Manning vs. Manning.
