Fox 4 News
The station's lead story tonight is that a Dallas police officer's 1984 Blazer was stolen (1984?) and, gasp, her service weapon was inside.
The story included reaction from neighbors who were "on edge."
Hey, it's not like plutonium was stolen.
Car Agony
Weird. I got in my car this morning and turned the key and got nothing. Dead. Not a noise. Not even a click.
Then 15 seconds later (with the key know stuck in the ignition), I at least get a slight surge of electricity. I turn the key and it starts.
Amazingly, it started the rest of the day, but I hate the feeling of not being 100% sure that your car will start.
And it's not a good sign that my temperature gauge showed it was 45 degrees outside today. Something aint' right. [Edit: Sheesh. Weatherman Ron Jackson just told me from my TV screen that the temperature didn't get out of the 40s today. It didn't seem that cold.]

Just Watched It
Pretty fascinating stuff. Pastor Ted Haggard (yep, that one) plays a prominent role as well as Jerry Falwell.
I think I was most interested in the opening scene of Joel Olsteen's Lakewoood megachurch in Houston - housed in the former home of the Houston Rockets. Just the sheer numbers were amazing.
HBO site is here. Caveat: The Alexandra Pelosi is the daughter of Nancy Pelosi.
Edit: BagOfNothing.com uploaded a quick excerpt of Ted Haggard talking about how Christian's have better sex. It' gold.

The Nazi Van!
Thanks to a loyal reader who snapped these pics of the mysterious van that is always near the Rhome Ticket Camera.
Edit:
Our jail lobby . . .
. . . has an ice cream machine.
Edit: And I sooooo busted my butt in the "attorney/client" room. And I am soooooo talking to the Sheriff about those freakin' welded to the floor chairs they have in there (in addition to the phones that have a 12" cord coming from the wall.)
Crazy World
New England QB spent the night at his super-model girlfriend's apartment in New York and when he leaves, he is bombarded by video and still photographers.
McSad?
There was a blurb in the Messenger a couple of weeks ago that McDonald's is considering shutting down its Decatur site for about three months in order to bulldoze the current one and build a nice new shiny McDonald's in its place. I was trying to remember when that place opened. 1980-ish?
Don't know what we'll do without one of the fanciest places in town.
PinkDome . . .
. . . is a pretty famous blog out of Austin.
PinkDome is dogging our own Phil King today.
Good.
It's Miss America Pageant Week in Las Vegas
And me loves me some Ms. Idaho.
And Ms. Texas is a female that just happen to be African-American.
Very, Very Bad Grandchild
The top story out of the metroplex this morning: Authorities were looking for a 21-year-old man early Friday in connection with an attack on his grandparents in their home south of Celina.
The Collin County Sheriff’s Department was called about 4:30 a.m. for what originally was reported as a stabbing. When deputies arrived at the home on County Road 90, they found the elderly victims had been struck “an unknown number of times with a wooden dowel,” Lt. John Norton said.
Fred Green, 74, was transported to Presbyterian Hospital of Plano with what Lt. Norton said were described as superficial wounds. Willie Green, 78, was flown by air ambulance to Baylor Medical Center in Dallas with more serious injuries. Her condition was not immediately known, Lt. Norton said.
Uh, a wooden dowel? And the kid kinda reminds me of Christian Slater.
The Rhome Nazi Cam . . .
. . . is out this morning. It's on the south end of town trying to catch speeders heading southbound into Fort Worth.
(Admittedly, the swatstika is a little over the top. But this policy drives me insane.)
