Random TV Observation

I never watch the Tonight Show, but for some reason I just saw five minutes of Jay Leno's monologue. Kill me. Sample (and I am not making this up): "The Runaway Bride, Jennifer Willbanks. The pinhead, Runaway Bride? She is suing her fiance for assets that she says she is entitled to. My advice to the ex-fiance: Run away!" [Audience roars with laughter.] Triple kill me.

For Those Prone To Drug Use: Hey, Now

That's Your Money

After all the bills are paid by the State (including the incredible amount of waste we don't know about), there will be $8 billion left over. That's $8 billion of over-taxation. And Perry is proud of that?

Just Because

I Think We Are Safe Now

The Star Telegram's web site gets dogged quite a bit, and I'm not the biggest fan of its design. Case in point: Do you think they might want to take off the Hurricane Season story that has been on it's "State" page for the last three months?

The Google

All the liberal web sites are making fun of Bush for saying he occasionally uses "the Google". “Occasionally. One of the things I’ve used on the Google is to pull up maps. It’s very interesting to see that. I forgot the name of the program, but you get the satellite and you can — like, I kind of like to look at the ranch on Google, reminds me of where I want to be sometimes." The Google. You know, the more I say it, the more I like it.

Stay The Course Part 2

The National Weather Service . . .

. . . is very cocky about its prediction for tomorrow.

I Wonder

Every time I see one of those trucks hauling old and crushed cars, I wonder what they looked like on the first day they were driven into someone's driveway.

"Stay The Course"

Or not.

My Head Hurts

I can't do the ad justice, but this lady is running a radio campaign spot on KRLD which has the most irritating kids singing some indecipherable lyrics to the tune of "If You're Happy And You Know It." It will drive you insane. Good judgment on her part.

From The Weekend: Chicago Marathon Finish

I'm Beginning To Think Everything Is Staged

I hate Entertainment Tonight or any of those shows because it seems like it's just one long commercial for a new song or movie. Even when I read the Q and A inside the front cover of Parade magazine I get suspicious: Did someone really take the time to send in a question about Harrison Ford who just happens to have a movie coming out that is mentioned in the answer? And as I look over the paparazzi web sites, I think this is staged.

My Last Football Note of the Night

Tony Romo starts the second half and on the first play throws an interception. Good times. But the crazy part comes in the next series. On third and two from the Giants 30 (or so), Parcells decides to throw it instead of running it. Hmmm. Incomplete. No big deal, I guess. But then the New Jersey Con Man decides to go for it on fourth down. (Hey, idiot, if that's your plan why did you throw it on third down?). So what happens: He looks like a genius as the ball goes to a wide open Terrell Owens who........drops it. Owens: $10 million this year Parcells: $4.5 million this year The implosion of the Cowboys begins. (And after the Owen's drop, ESPN spent the next 10 minutes talking to Emmitt Smith about Dancing With The Stars. Kill me.)

I Triple Don't Know

Source. Although "I want you in my belly!" keeps popping in my head.

Random Cowboy Game Thought

Giant's LB Lamar Arrington was just carted off the field. I'll bet $100 that he tore his Achilles Tendon. I know because he and I are superior athletes who have (now) suffered the same injury.

I Don't Know

I think it's the hat that makes this really funny.

Baylor / A&M Fans

FSN Southwest is replaying the Kansas-Baylor and A&M-Oklahoma State games, neither of which was televised Saturday. Baylor's amazing comeback will air at 8 p.m. Tuesday. The Aggies' overtime win will air at 8 p.m. Thursday.
