On A Lighter Note . . .

. . . Happy President's Day from a girl that I think is Jessica Simpson. Or she might just be a random girl from Newark. Don't know.

Life's Troubling Questions

I always glance at the obituaries in the Morning News. This one stopped me down today. Anyone got any complaints about their life right now? Me neither.

This Will Sooooo Happen To Me Some Day

Another Sweet And Clean Brit Pic

I got a tattoo of Earl Warren in the same area about two weeks ago.

On Age And Aging

I saw the new Hugh Grant movie this weekend and noticed how old he was looking.

In a twist of fate, the next day I stumbled across an old manila envelope that had pictures of me from 1993. I showed it to someone who noted "you were handsome."

That past tense kinda stuck with me.

Didn't Want To Invest Four Hours . . .

But the highlights were cool.

Note To Self:

Do not be in the T&A Cabaret Bar in south Fort Worth at 1:30 a.m.

Slow Weekend . . . How About Some Cameraman Carnage

The slow motion is what makes it entertaining. And everyone surrounds the guy like he's just been shot in after a drive-by.

Britney Goes Commando!!!!

The heck with the war on Iraq, we've got a story here! More pics here.

Google Needs To Work On Its Text Parsing

I have a google news alert sent up for several local officials in the county. It is supposed to send me fresh news stories, but I often get a bunch of old ones. The above screenshot s is what I received today about Sheriff David Walker. That first one made me do a double take. But, rest assured, our Sheriff is still above reproach. (Link to that first story is here.)

Edit: A couple of comments haven't made it through the very detailed screening process. First, you can't call him that in a family friendly forum. And, sir, those Channel 4 reporter rumors need to be documented with seedy photographs.

I Think We Can Have It Both Ways

Congress passed a non-binding resolution today, 246-182, telling the President that sending more troops to Iraq is not-a-good.

I spent 10 minutes trying to find out how our representative voted but had no luck. (What's up with this Internet thing?) The best I could find was the above quote. I'm guessing she sides with W.

Jesus Bumper Stickers Are Popular These Days

This Was Crazy

This little girl was on The Today Show this morning for this reason: She has had a violent case of the hiccups for three weeks and they won't go away. All I had time for was to see the "teases" to the segment and there she sat, hiccupping in the most painful of ways.

It was one of the saddest things I've ever seen. (Ok, maybe an overstatement, but it was pretty sad.)

NBC has the video up on its website (and is surprisingly fast loading.)

Man, I've Heard Good Things About This

And it's coming to a mailbox near me.

Any Bets . . .

. . .on whether this teen beats down her classmates with her sanctimonious attitude? "Declaring . . . unclean?" Sheesh.

(DMN Letters to the Editor.)

Two Things . . .

. . . people ask me about that I'm not particularly interested in:

The Daytona 500 (lots of cheatin' goin' on there, hoss)

and

Contaminated Peanut Butter (everyone I know has discovered a half eaten jar with the dreaded 2111 product code in their house - including my office - and not one of them has become ill.)

Shows That Made Me Laugh Last Night

The Sarah Silverman Show. (I'm not sure I've ever seen a comedy episode based upon the premise of "I have AIDS" before.)

The Gordon Keith Show. (The "man on the street" interviews with the people of Farmers Branch were priceless.)
