I Walk By This Old Building . . .

. . . in Decatur every day. It kind of reminds me of the Amityville Horror house.

I'm Going To Worry About Britney All Weekend

Christmas Gift Idea

Buy it for Junior, here.

The Frozen Tundra Of TCU

I Finally Saw the "Borat" Movie

Verdict: Huge thumbs up. (Although I spent alot of time uttering 'oh noooooo' at all of the uncomfortable tension.) I'm not much of a "laugh out loud" kinda guy, but I did it at this movie.

Not Sure

I saw four guys dressed in some all black commando style outfits in a Jacksboro convenience store this morning. (Complete with black "Gilligan" style hats.) They had an insignia that read S.O.R.T. on their shoulder patches, and I got close enough to read "Special Operations Response Team." One of them had what looked like an ID card with the letters "CC" on it. They didn't look military. They didn't look like cops. Anybody want to clue me in?

One Weird Thing About Me

I hate watching sports injuries. I think I'd rather experience it than watch it. But someone has collected the Top Ten Leg and Arm Injuries on YouTube.com and put them all in one place. I haven't watched a single one. But I know my audience, and you guys can't help but click on this link. Ignore the background.

I Don't Know

Best Crash Of The Day - Slim Pickens

Fox 4 News had a pretty good one, but it was too dark.

Where's Recklessness When You Need It?

High Sheriff David Walker tells me that the WCSO teamed up with DPS for accident assistance today. Being prepared for the equivalent of a Hindenburg disaster, they were called out on only seven minor accidents (and two of those turned out to not be accidents at all.) No injuries were reported.

Man Or Woman?

This disturbing time wasting game was just sent to me. I refused to play it. But if I did, hypothetically speaking, I would have been 13 out of 16.

Tony Romo Giggle

I'd Be Happy To Make It To Allsups

. . . but that thing called the television just told me that Dr. Scott and Donna Stowers are trying to get to Atlanta. (That's a Wise County couple to those of you confused.)

Quoting From Another Blog

Have you seen [the Southwest Kia commercials]? Bill Dickason is walking through the dealership, talking about his good deals on Kias, when he's inexplicably interrupted by a short clip of a kitten playing or two deer nuzzling or a baby getting a bath. Then Dickason returns to the screen and doesn't address the interruption at all. The first time I saw one of these, I thought I was losing my mind. I finally saw one of the commercials. Bizarre. But it's the only way in the world I'd mention a Kia dealership so I guess it's effective.

Channel 8 Has Gone Picture Crazy

Bridgeport got into the mix as did Rhome. But things were kinda put in perspective when the pic from Amarillo was put on the screen.

I'm Not Sure Why

. . . but a couple from Decatur managed to get a digital picture broadcast on Channel 8 news this morning. By the way, Channel 8 has named the storm "Bitter Blast."

Maybe We Should All Stay Home With A Good Book

And here's a blog dedicated to nothing but pictures of hot girls with books. I love the Internet.

Lack Of School Closings

This might be a dicey proposition if things freeze over during the day. Getting everybody home in the ice (if that happens) is dangerous. Edit: It's slick out there! Edit: I saw that Alvord ISD and Slidell ISD are shut down. I have a very unconfirmed report that Decatur ISD will shut down at 10:00. Edit: Bridgeport ISD closing at 11:00 a.m. Edit: Paradise ISD closing at noon.
