It's The Un-Holy Trinity

My Typical Monday

I Can't Hear Myself Think

At a gas station in Fort Worth outside of a Walmart this weekend, they had added a TV screen (top pic) that plays commercials as well as news and weather from Channel 8. At the same time, there is audio playing from a separate screen about some fuel additive.

Decatur Has An Inflatable Monkey Today

Me loves me the inflatable monkey.

Giggle

What Deer?

Maybe We Can Talk About The Weather

And I don't know why I'm looking forward to Thursday so much.

I Did Not Post This

She Turned 35 This Weekend

But "Married With Children", which is one of my favorite guilty pleasures, seems like yesterday.

We've Got A Double "Hey, Now"

I Wonder If Dakota Fanning Ate That Pig For Thanksgiving?

Shout Out

The Messenger made reference this weekend about my running in the Turkey Trot and also referenced Sheriff David Walker running in a similar event in Fort Worth. I would be remiss if I didn't point out that the Assistant Wise County Attorney, Thomas Aaberg, ran the 8 mile race in Dallas and finished in 59:05.05 - a very brisk 7:23 per mile pace.

"I Done Wet My Britches"

In 1994, the greatest high school football game in the history of ever was played at Texas Stadium. Plano East trailed Tyler John Tyler 41-13 with just under three minutes to go. What happened next was simply unbelievable. The clip above is four minutes long. Check it out.

USC and Notre Dame Are Playing Tonight

Just thought you'd want to know.

You Don't See That Jersey Very Often

From the Southlake - Euless Trinity game yesterday.

Worth Watching?

Michael Irvin might (or might not) be in hot water for suggesting that Dallas QB Tony Romo has a little black in his heritage since he's such a good athlete. Specifically, he suggested that Romo's great-great-great Grandma "ran over in the hood and something went down" or "pulled one of them studs up outta the barn." The comments were made on the Dan Patrick radio show. You can hear them here. May favorite part is at the end where co-host Keith Olberman says, "Let's try to turn out of this skid."

43,000 . . .

. . . was the announced attendance today at Texas Stadium for The Southlake Carroll Arian Nations vs. Euless Trinity Tongans. The Tongans should have won, but didn't. (And traffic was a mess since not all the regular entrances were open. The Euless Trinity band arrived at the end of the first quarter. The drill team for Southlake made it there at the start of the second.) My plan was to TIVO the A&M - Texas game and then go home and watch it without knowing the results. That plan didn't work. Something big happened in Austin and you couldn't walk 20 feet without someone talking about.

Good Times?

So the Star Telegram has a story tonight on some guy getting stabbed outside of Tumbleweeds Sports Bars (which appears to be fairly close to Saginaw). When I went to its web site I noticed that it had a bunch of pictures posted from past Halloweens. It's a slow night. Check 'em out.
