"You Gotta Have a Montage"

If you missed the opening montage to the Emmy's last night, youtube.com has it here. Thumbs up. (And the Dateline spoof was genius.) Although there is a stupid controversy about the plane crash aspect.

Hey, Now (Or Maybe Not)

I Wonder What That Devon Energy Guy Earns? Oh.

Other CEO pay of every company you could think of is here.

Over 40? It'll Make Sense. Kinda.

Random Thoughts

Random Thoughts:

• Yep, played golf yesterday and I actually put one in the cup from 140 yards out. (An eagle on a par 5). I'm an absolutely awful golfer but for that one brief moment life was good. But I'm prepared to wait another 20 years for it to happen again.
• On the Emmy's tonight, the three original Charlie's Angels appeared - still not bad after all of these years.
• On Fox 4 News, there was a story about some high school girl who was sent home from Fossil Creek High School because she had pink hair. Her respect-authority-mom appeared on a video clip to call the situation the result of "stupidity" on the part of administration. Nice.
• The Terrell Owens situation is getting comical - who would have thought it would have gone down hill so fast.
• Bill Parcells never smiles - and he looks like a miserable human being.
• I rented The Marathon Man the other day - good stuff.
• I rented The Truman Show the other day - awful stuff.
• I'm now watching season one of Boston Legal - very promising stuff.
• If you want to see a very bizarre clip of an Emmitt Smith roast with Jamie Foxx absolutely gutting a struggling comedian, check this out.(But: extreme language warning.)

Philosophy of Truth

It'll be a slow Saturday here since for some stupid reason I'll be hacking around a golf course beginning at 1:00 p.m. (Is it supposed to be hot today?) But, for what it's worth, I think the situation at Everman ISD is crazy. If you don't recall, the media got all over the prinicpal at Everman High School because on the first day of class she got on the PA system and dogged the African American kids for the school receiving an academically "unacceptable" rating due to low math and science scores. One thing that was always missing from the story: Did she have facts to back it up? Yep, she did. Only 32% of the blacks passed the match and science section. So what happens? The school board president resigns (someone explain that to me), the media continues to dog the school, and the superinendent has been crying (per the normally level headed Bud Kennedy who wrote a crazy column called "Don't blame kids for unacceptable rating."

Color This Crime Wave Purple

And you thought meth labs were a problem? Some places have it really bad.

That Last Paragraph Is Interesting

Ed McDonnough: You mean you busted out of jail? Evelle: No, ma'am. We released ourselves on our own recognizance. Gale: What my brother here means to say is that we felt that the institution no longer had anything to offer us.
