In Light Of The Dead Pig . . .

. . . that appeared in The Spin this week, one faithful reader sent me this pic with the note: "Supposed to have been killed in Wise County and weighed in at 630 lbs. If you have this on your computer you probably qualify for the 'might be a redneck if' label..."

Hey, Now

Winner Of "That's Not My Job" Award

I Didn't Know The Lord Listened

Rihanna won "Best Female Artist" tonight on the Billboard Music Awards. I did a doubletake when she said, "I want to thank all my fans . . . and I want to thank my biggest fan, Jesus Christ."

Freaky

Fox (or, more specifically, its parent News Corp) caught a lot of flak recently when it almost published O.J. Simpson's new book "If I Did It" and almost aired a television interview with the acquitted killer. But check out this "bit" from Chris Rock in 1997. Wait until the 1:01 mark for one heck of a coincidence. (I put this screen shot up for you impatient ones out there.)

"It was an obsession-type thing,"

Since we have at least three Wise Countians playing football at Sam Houston State, this deserves a note. Story.

I'm Making This My Christmas Card

Canada Must Have Border Control Issues

The High Sheriff reports that he has crossed the US/Canadian Border (and sends this pic as proof). The formation of the Royal Wise County Mounted Police can't be too far behind when he gets back.

The Cowboys Almost Have Me Interested Again

But, man, that Martin Gramatica is a little guy.

Help Evangelist Benny Hinn . . .

. . . finish off the down payment on his Gulfstream G4SP jet called Dove One. He is seeking 6,000 of you to pledge $1,000. Really. Edit: You know, the more I look at this, the more astonished I am. Jesus would have washed the feet of those that checked the tire pressure on the jet, but he never would have stepped foot in it.

Racist, Bigot, Anti-Semite

If you ever wanted to see President Jimmy Carter called those words on live TV, here ya go. I think the caller was voicing compassionate conservatism, but I'm not sure.

Rome Is Burning

I'm not sure, but I think that "pie" was made of shaving cream. That will burn the eyes. The man is in pain. Good times.

"Bitter Blast"

Our High Sheriff, David Walker, is at a speaking engagement in Minnesota. He sends a couple of pics of the "Wintry Mix."

Good times.
