Caught My Eye
In the travel section of the DMN, this picture appeared today (it was of better quality in the paper than off the website).
I think that's former Bridgeport Police Officer Todd Bailey.
Anna Nicole Overload
TMZ (a huge gossip site) claims this is a pic of Anna's refrigerator. At least what her refrigerator in the Bahamas looked like where she was living.
So Much For Spontaneity
I was listening to the Wade Phillips press conference on The Ticket last week. During a pause, I heard a voice say "In a second, we'll have Jerry and Wade walk through the locker room together. So those that want a shot of that need to position yourselves." And this pic comes out the next day in the Morning News.

Super Bowl Greatness
U2 gave the first Super Bowl Halftime performance after 9/11 and it was absolutely great. I just think it was too soon for us to embrace the tragedy. Looking back on it, it was very moving.
BigBagOfNothing.com had the video up tonight. I watched it all the way through.
Arch-Conservative State Sen. Jane Nelson . . .
. . . "introduced legislation Thursday that would require 'moderate or vigorous' daily physical activity for students in kindergarten through eighth grade."
I don't think its by chance that the Star-Telegram decided to run a picture with this story.
Rights Over Content
This one drives me crazy. On one hand, I've always hated the Confederate Flag and really cringe whenever I see anyone display it. But it's more important to me that the government not be able to censor anyone who wishes to flaunt it. Even if it is on a silly purse.
I'll vote, begrudingly, for the girls on this one. (But "patriots"? Uh, no.)

"Jesus Camp" . . .
. . . is a fascinating documentary. It raises the question of how quickly and how intensely children should be indoctrinated into the religion of their parents. For all of you that ever attended a Baptist church camp, you'll have some flashbacks.
And it made me recall a conversation I had with a female friend [Edit: who was Baptist] while I was in college. For whatever reason, I had said to her in a passing conversation, "Isn't it weird that if my parents had been Catholic that I'd be a Catholic?"
"Not me," she said. "I'd still be a Baptist."
I didn't have much to do with her after that.
"Hard Candy" . . .
. . . is one bizarre film. Summary: A guy wishes Chris Hansen of "To Catch A Predator" would walk into the room to stop his nightmare inflicted by a Molly Ringwald type of character. Good stuff. And the movie poster is great.
Sissie vs. Lady Eagle - Round 3 - This Time It's More Personal Than The Last Time When It Was Personal
I'm not that interested, but somebody post the score tonight of the Bridgeport/Decatur girls basketball pseudo-playoff game. I think tip off is at 6:00 p.m. at Northwest.
Sweat like ladies and godspeed.
More Anna Nicole News
There's news that Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband is making a claim that he might be the father of Anna Nicole's six month old baby. That got me thinking, so I put this list of potential fathers that DNA needs to exclude:
1. Rex Hoskins (Decatur Police Chief and current TV star)
2. Pseudonym (uses secret Canadian Love Moves)
3. Rook Ramsey (former Sheriff but could hold a cigar in exotic manner)
4. Skip Nichols (Messenger editor in chief or something like that - oozes power)
5. Trevor Brazile (Famous Decatur cowboy. Women love that stuff.)
6. Allen Williamson (alleged super lawyer - claims he had an affair with Anna last fall)
7. Andrew Rottner (Pres. North Texas Bank - probably has had picture taken with Anna)
8. Ed Winfrey (Decatur City Judge - claims he has "dirt" on Anna)
9. Sheriff David Walker (odds on favorite)
10. Kyle Story (Decatur coach - also capable of turning water into wine)
Edit: Yeah, I know I've rejected a handful of comments.
Friday Afternoon Smackdown
All I know is that it is some amateur fight somewhere with a ref who has a violent streak. But after watching it a couple of times, the boxer without the shirt is a little &^%&) [<----self censorship] for taking a swing at his opponent after said opponent had been hurled to the ground. Hard.
Good times.
[Edit: Well that didn't last long. YouTube.com has taken down the video. I'm never watching anything on YouTube again. Ever.]
