Possible News

A faithful reader just sent me this pic of unstableness. If this is legit, that's a pic this morning of a guy who decided to ride his four wheeler out onto a shallow but not-so-frozen Eagle Mountain lake in the Newark area. A "rescue" effort involving the Newark Fire Department is ongoing.

Tyra Banks Takes Up For Fat Big Women

Orders for cheeseburgers soar. (A-Bomb warning.)

The More Things Change . . .

Old timers will appreciate this youtube clip of Channel 8 news for 1992. For some reason, the station sends Valari Williams up to Hedley, TX to talk about the weather. Her lips begin to freeze and you can hardly understand her at the end of the 3 1/2 minute clip. Then Chip Moody begins laughing followed by a couple of seconds of Tracy Rowlett giggling at the silliness. My mom still talks about this clip.

I Say . . .

. . . we kill that groundhog and stop this silliness.

287 Was A Beating This Morning

My Joe Duty Mornent Moment This Morning

287 at county line

The Great Blizzard of 2007

Conditions not this bad in Wise County since December, 2o06. Wise County Government Offices open two hours late. Decatur ISD opens on time - Declares county government "letting terrorists win." Developing . . . Edit: In other breaking news, The Today Show just did a segment on not allowing you kids to drink hand sanitizers since they contain over 60% alcohol. (I'm slipping one in my briefcase for a little "pick me up" later.)

OK, That's Not A Young Bob Saget

But the rest is interesting.

Allegedly The Same Girl

Supposed to be some English singer named Amy Winehouse. I'm too lazy to verify if its an After & Before pic so let's assume it's true.

Oh, No, They Didn't

Fox4News' helicopter just flew over some empty sand trucks in an empty parking lot while an intrepid reporter announced, "I can tell you they are ready to go!"

Denise Richards and Richie Sambora Went To The Beach In Hawaii Yesterday

And my big ol' belly would be as red as his big ol' belly if I were to get out in the sun right now. Or my blood pressure would make it look that way if I got to frolic with Denise Richards.

NBC Thought We Should Be Protected

At least on TV (in connection with the Boston bomb scare. You can see the hippies behind the "plot" here.) Thanks to tip. Edit: You couldn't buy one of those little guys on EBay, could you? Edit: Someone made a funny. Edit: The guys' press conference after their release from jail was bizarre.

I Guess This Means I Better Get Rid Of My Blow Torch

Story.

I Want A Pair Of Scissors. Badly.

On an unrelated note, the youtube.com video going around of the girl, in a rage, cutting her hair off on her wedding day is sooooo fake. I did a better job of acting when I told my fourth wife I wouldn't mind if she super-sized that meal.

The Best I Can Do For The Ladies: Vintage Terry Bradshaw

Tara Conner

. . . was on the Today Show this morning. This thing has turned into the theater of the bizarre with Matt Lauer asking "Did you use cocaine?" "When did you start?" "Were you out drinking late at night?" "Do you have a sexual addiction?" "Were you abused?" "Was it physical or sexual?"

Oh, Baby. There Ya Go

As I Sit Here . . . wondering how to make money with this stupid site (whether it be The Blog or WiseCounty.com), I thought about Mark Cuban and how he became rich at the time of the inception of the Internet. First, I looked up how Cuban made his fortune when, his company, audionet.com/broadcast.com was purchased by Yahoo in the late 1990s. The figure astounded me. Out of curiosity, I looked up what Google payed for YouTube.com a couple of months ago. Here it is: Google paid $1.65 billion in stock for YouTube.com Yahoo paid Cuban and his partners $5.04 billion in stock for Broadcast.com
