From The Update

Does the "crossing U.S. 81/287 on foot" jump out at you, too?

Now, I Can't Get . . . .

. . . "It's A Cruel, Cruel Summer" out of my head. Thank you. I'll be here all week.

13 Degrees Of Seperation

PUUULeeeese.

The Top Six Cheap Shots Of The Year . . .

. . . in college football. TCU , Tech and A&M should be soooo ashamed.

I Triple Don't Know

I Don't Know

I Like This Guy Already

Asked point-blank by Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., during the confirmation hearing today whether the U.S. is winning in Iraq, Secretary of Defense nominee Robert Gates replied, "No, sir." Gig 'em.

Touching

Bush #41 breaks down as he talks about his son, Jeb, on the floor of the Florida legislature. It's a video from USA Today so it's not as fast loading as youtube.com. But it's worth the brief wait. I've never seen him this emotional, and it seems like the last few years have taken a toll of him.

Janet Jackson At The Billboard Awards Last Night

I've suddenly have the desire to break out into Rhythm Nation.

Funny Seinfeld Recut

If your a fan of Seinfeld and are aware of "Kramer's" outburst a couple of weeks ago, you'll probably get a chuckle out of this.

Sheesh

Just had the joy of watching a young mother dart across Main St (across from Dennis Hudson's gas station) with her five year old son in tow - only to have a car screech to a halt to avoid hitting them. Not good parenting.

Denise Richards Last Night

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.
