Monday Reflections

Let me get this right: Texas is out and the Aggies are still in? I'm worried about the Evil Empire.

I Can't Say That I Keep Up With High School Long Jumping . . .

. . . but isn't 21'8" a long freakin' way?

(From last week's Denton Guyer Relays.)

And if you're interested in all-time Texas high school track records, here ya go.

What Kind Of Girls Do Get In?

I don't know who this girl is other than she is a former Playboy Playmate. Anyway, she tried to get into some club in Miami named Hyde on Friday night but was denied. Good grief, some standards are too high.

Video (yes, you want to waste your time) is here.

"He Might Be A Crackhead Who Got Holt Of The Wrong Stuff"

I'm off to Jacksboro tomorrow morning to try and work out a plea deal, so (because of my extended absence) I decided to post what may be my favorite news report of all time. (I posted it about a year ago, but I keep going back to it.)

Crazy Jessica Biel Picture

"You'll Put Your Eye Out"

So I was weed-eating with my new dual trim (bad, bad technology) Toro weed wacker when a piece of I-Don't-Know-What flew up and caught me on my left cheek. It hurt like a son of gun but it was only later that I learned I was bleeding. Actual red blood!

I never have thought about wearing protective goggles before, but that made me think about it.

County Leaders Caught At Gay Club!

Ok, kidding.

That's the High Sheriff David Walker and Wise County Republican Party [Edit: "Vice-"] Chairman Allen Williamson at recent Republican Party lovefest at the Decatur Convention Center. More pictures are here (but I promise you, it takes four days to download because the pics are so freakin' large.)

Politcal Junkies Only

First, John "I'm the Right Wing Candidate" McCain thinks we should send many more troops to Iraq, and now, aboard the "Straight Talk Express", he doesn't know whether condoms help prevent the transmission of STDs.

The GOP better pray Fred Thompson joins the race, because things are looking dim.

Stumble Across On "Yahoo's Most Viewed Photo's"

Dead Of Death

Insightful article last year in the Dallas Observer about how Crazy Ray had fallen on hard times is here.

Edit: To be clear, there is an actual passing.

Bad Picture . . .

. . . of a parachuter I took yesterday off of 287 near Rhome. Not real sure I have seen that before.

Kind Of Makes A Man Want To Begin Watching "Lost" Again

Aggies In Round 2

And that may be the only interesting thing on today. (At 2:40 p.m. vs. Louisville.)

Some Kid . . .

. . . at Columbia is a technical wizard AND a huge March Madness fan AND is probably in big trouble due to the copyright laws. Link.

Stewie Has Been Served

If you have ever watched The Family Guy, then you know that it is one parody bit after another. No part of pop culture is left untouched.

So the show incorporates a few seconds of Carol Burnett's cleaning lady character (people actually remember that?) so she decides to sue. Sue? Did that darn Patriot Act repeal the First Amendment, too?

Not only does Ms. Burnett not have a sense of humor, her lawyer's don't understand copyright law.

Edit: Didn't she do a parody of Gone With The Wind?

Edit: The clip and the lawsuit can be seen here on The Smoking Gun.

Girl Licks Stanley Cup

Maybe hockey isn't so bad.
