Thou Shalt Not Flaunt The Law

It looks like a small county in Florida has just erected the 10 Commandments on the courthouse steps. Last January, when the decision was made to install the monument, the county attorney promised to represent the county for free if any legal challenges were filed. Although he no longer is the county attorney, he promises to keep his word. He better get ready. Story here.

Not Sure What The History Is On This

I Bet He's Gonna Buy a Backstreet Boys CD

NBC News has been using this footage to show the number of early morning shoppers on "Black Friday." Check out the big guy on the left and his "happy dance" as he makes it through the door. I can't help but laugh every time I see it.

My 4th Wife

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.

Me loves me the inflatable monkey.

What Deer?

Maybe We Can Talk About The Weather

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