Nobody Gets More Spam Than Me . . .

. . . and these have been showing up by the dozens on a daily basis.

I Didn't Know That

Although I refuse to get too excited about the Dallas Cowboys (I gave up cheering for professional sports teams 10 years ago), I try to keep informed. But I did not know that Dallas had an assistant head coach named Tony Sparano. And that's not a typo.

Spare Me

The Dallas Morning News yesterday had a story in the sports section about some CPA (yep, a CPA) who had killed some defenseless huge mule deer in Colorado. Like that suddenly makes him a man's man. And the above quote got my attention. It speaks of why he stayed an extra day after seeing the deer very late one afternoon some four miles away. He decided to spend the night and go after Darth Bambi the next day. Buddy, that "very important business meeting" couldn't have been that important, the fact that you didn't want to "waste time" going to find cell service that night indicates you are inconsiderate, and "owning you own business" isn't gonna work out for long if you simply stand up people who expect to meet you.

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.

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.
