Bush Unplugged

You'll be hearing a lot about this today on the news. youtube.com video clip here. (The news story runs out of steam about half way through).

Armor of God

I loved this part of the story on Dallas Cowboy Keith Davis who was shot around 5:00 a.m. this weekend (The second time he has been shot in three years.): At the time of the shooting, Mr. Davis said, he was returning home from Shreveport, La., where he had spent the weekend with friends and family. "I wasn't going to go home, but I had missed church the previous Sunday," said Mr. Davis, "and we've got training camp coming up, and I didn't want to miss another Sunday. We were going to get home in time to change clothes and head to church."

Puppy Love

"FORT WORTH, Texas -- The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) of Texas says it will take temporary custody of more than 200 confined dogs from a suspected animal hoarder in Wise County, who is also an animal control officer." (Story here).

Walk The Line

With the renewed interest in Johnny Cash of late, youtube.com has some great clips. Here's Cash on the Tonight Show in 1980 (although it would be better if Johnny Carson would stop talking so much). Here's Cash and June Carter Cash singing "Jackson".

Poster Fun

I haven't researched this movie to figure out if it is new or old, but I could stare at the poster for quite some time. (And if it doesn't jump out at you, the tennis shoes are the teeth.)

This story goes with this picture. My previous post about her is here. I'm too lazy to regurgitate it all.

Comforting

Yesterday all news sources were reporting that an Israeli ship was hit by Hezbollah with an unmanned drone packed with explosives. An unmanned drone? I thought, "An unmanned drone? They've got that? And its accurate enough to hit a ship?" This morning a report in Forbes magazine said this: "A missile fired by Hezbollah, not an unmanned drone laden with explosives, damaged an Israeli warship off Lebanon, the army said Saturday . . . . But the army's investigation showed that Hezbollah had fired an Iranian-made missile at the vessel from the shores of Lebanon, said Brig. Gen. Ido Nehushtan. 'We can confirm that it was hit by an Iranian-made missile launched by Hezbollah. We see this as very profound fingerprint of Iranian involvement in Hezbollah,' Nehushtan said in an interview with The Associated Press." I'd rather they have unmanned drones.

Close The Borders. NOW!!!

KNOR, 93.7 on your radio dial, was my favorite station for R&B and Hip-Hop (with more emphasis on the R&B than the hippity hop). It was kind of a hip hop station for white people. Well, I punched on it yesterday morning and was overcome with mexican music. Not even reggaeton music, I'm talking hard core cheap mexican restaurant kind of music. The Star-Telegram explained: "The party's over at hip-hop radio station KNOR/93.7 FM "Party 93.7" - which is now "La Raza 93.7." Station owner Liberman Broadcasting quietly made the switch Thursday. Calls to Liberman's California offices and to 93.7 were unreturned. According to the Web site for Liberman's Houston stations, the La Raza format plays artists such as Intocable, Banda el Recodo and Diana Reyes." We've got to do something about immigration.
