Let's See Tiger Play With That Going On

I played golf this afternoon at the Doral golf course (across from the Texas Motor Speedway.) What I didn't realize beforehand was that there was an Air Show going on at Alliance Airport at the same time. The USAF Thunderbirds buzzed the golf course time and time again as they turned around to head back to Alliance. Very loud. Very cool.

A Plea For Common Sense

A Star-Telegram story that explains why I pull my hair out every day: - A cop gets accused of rape - He proclaims his innocence and wants a trial - At the trial, the prosecutor violates a court's ruling and a mistrial is declared - The jury, in post trial interviews, says that they were ready to find the defendant not guilty had the mistrial not occurred - The trial judge rules that the defendant can't be prosecuted again based upon Double Jeopardy - The bloodthirsty State appeals and finds a Republican court that agrees with her: the case can be retried - Today a second jury finds the defendant not guilty

Dang It. I Was Gonna Do That Tonight.

"Dennis Rodman donned a pink, small, Playboy camisole in Las Vegas last night. He partied with friends at Tangerine where he took part in their burlesque show. He danced around the room with female guests and took off his cute little shirt during a striptease."

Baseball Nugget

I don't care about baseball, but I do like good stories and we have one going on with the Houston Astros. Nine days ago they were 8 1/2 games behind the division leading St. Louis Cardinals. Heck, if you are 8 1/2 back at the All Star break, you are as good as done. Since then, however, the Astros have won 9 games in a row and the Cardinals have lost 8 of 9. That's amazing.
