I'm Too Mature To Laugh At This "Blonde Girl Flip"

And To Think . . .

. . . she would never have been governor if Clayton Williams hadn't shot his mouth off.

Cycle Schmycle

I've never understood why people get excited about someone hitting for the "cycle." I mean, four homeruns is better than that as is four triples. Sheesh, two homeruns, a triple and a double is better.

Nancy Grace Killed Someone

A Little Knowledge

It's nerdy of me, but I think Wikipedia (the online encyclopedia that anyone can edit) is amazing. For example, it has an entry on the very recently deceased son of Anna Nicole Smith. And remember that Israel/Lebanon conflict that just ended? Its entry has all you need to know. How in the world can the old encyclopedias compete with this?

My What?

Fox 4 News was doing some story tonight about some Watuaga cop that got fired for having a myspace.com page that was "inappropriate." But when the (heavily produced pre-packaged) story flashed to a computer screen in illustrate the myspace.com website, something didn't seem quite right.
