Random Game Day Pics

Oh my

I'll never bad mouth my Bears again.

Baylor 36 Kansas 35

Random thoights at halftime

- It is really hot - Baylor may be the worst team in America - I just saw a black guy get arrested by The Man - On the way down, I saw a billboard that read 'Alvarado - one city under God' - Some Baylor students were holding a banner over I-35 that read 'Honk for impeachment!'

So I Did

As I Seriously . . .

. . . think about driving to Waco for Baylor/Kansas on a beautiful Saturday afternoon.

Country Grammer

So I'm reading about the exploding population in northern Tarrant County and come across this sentence: A significant number of houses is also being built in southwest Fort Worth, as well as in the central city, including in and around downtown. I feel like an idiot. It seems like that should be "are" but I think it has something to do with a prepositional phrase. But I have no idea. I'm spending the rest of the night diagramming sentences while smoking marihoochie and playing bongo drums.

I abandon Microsoft's IE browser a few months ago and started using Firefox. I love it. You can get it here for free.

Smells Like

If you ever wanted to see Nirvana's Kurt Cobain smash someone over the head with a guitar and then get his arse kicked, check out this. (The good stuff on the youtube.com clip comes at the 3:00 minute mark.) It occurred in Deep Ellum 15 years ago.

"She just didn't understand me."

Thank you. I'll be here all week. Edit: And I'm talking about his big brain, not his speech. Although an explanation can truly ruin the timing of a joke.

Riding Dirty

What's up with the crappy "paving" job done on some of the streets in Decatur? This street (right off the courthouse square) is two weeks post having it done and it creates more dust than a back road in Cottondale.

Dog Pile

Now the relatively famous "Pink Dome" political blog in Austin has jumped on the "AE" controvery.

Decatur Gang Land

I can never really picture gangs at Decatur High School. Maybe a West Side Story kind of gang, but not gangsta gangs. (Blurb from Update.)

Hey Batttttaaaaa

I never watch baseball but I finally get interested in the 7th inning of a championship series. It's 10:36 and I'm dialed in to Mets/Cardinals. But I can't concentrate due to the music being played over the Shea Stadium public address system. I just heard Naughty By Nature's "O.P.P."

Hey, Now......Uh.....(Tapping Brakes).... Uh

. . . the Republicans govern by the Politics of Fear. And now they are at it again.
