Channel 8 . . .


. . . follow-up to van accident on 1810 last week. (A fund has been set up at Wells Fargo.)

She Beat Me To It


I don't watch American Idol but I've seen news coverage of this kid wailing over some mop head singer. I was going to say the kid seems a little goofy but C4U beat me to it. Edit: Sheesh, this kid is on The Today Show. Edit #2: She's 13? I thought she was 8.

Cop Gone Wild


If you want to see an off duty Chicago cop beat the crap out of a little female bartender, you can do so here. (Man, it's crazy.)

Edit: Now on youtube.com.

I saw it on Fox4News tonight . . . although I can hardly move because I'm entranced by the beauty of Megan Henderson.

TheBaylor Women's Basketball Team Lost Last Night


And our General of All Things Baylor Women felt the pain in the second half. There are rumors that the Evil Empire, whose long time coach just retired, might want her.

Get thee behind me, Satan.

My Junk Email Doesn't Even Know Me Anymore


I just got this one in my Inbox.

Know Your Rights With The PO-lice


Quick eight question quiz. I got 7 or 8 right (but I should get them all right because it is what I do for a living every single day.)

Hint on question #7 that I got wrong: The word "random" should appear in the question. I was screwed.

Drug Running Boat?


Snopes.com says it's true.

And I'd guess that a 250 HP outboard would run you $15,000 a piece. (But it has been forever since I've priced a boat motor.)

My Columbo-Like Instincts . . .


. . . were right!!!

Do You Think . . .


. . . when this man was a cute little bitty baby and his parents took him home from the hospital and placed him in his crib, that those parents ever thought this headline would be associated with that bundle of joy?

(If you must, story here.)

I've Found Future Wives 9 through 18 . . .

. . . all in one place. (Once again, I'm offended by Spring Break.)

Edgumacation

Someone collected a few short youtube.com clips of everyday life at James Madison High School in Dallas.

Shoot Me . . .

. . . if I'm ever in a Senior Citizens Center and actually want to be visited by clowns. Young private nurses, yes. Clowns, no. (You can bail on the video after about a minute).

Lindsay On The Cover of GQ This Month


Hey, now.

Marriage Is Grand


Did you catch the 911 where this guy admitted to shooting his wife in North Richland Hills. He said she had "enticed" him and "ridiculed" him all his life.

I thought that was the basis for really good relationship.

Call Me A Skeptic . . .


. . . but there is something suspicious about this story.

This Is The Last Day Of Winter

This Billboard . . .



. . . showing up in Los Angeles for the new movie Captivity has been causing lots of controversy. Which, I suppose, was exactly the plan.

The girl depicted in the ad is the smokin' hot Elisha Cuthbert.

Northwest ISD News


The Messenger always prints Northwest ISD news that I refuse to read because I don't consider the school to be part of the "old Wise County." But, alas, times change.

Northwest ISD announced today the creation of a new high school that will be located in the very high tone town of Trophy Club. (I must admit that my very first home I ever owned was in Trophy Club, but it was in "the poor section" to the west so I'm not sure it counted.)

Back to the high school. It will cost $96 million and will include, get this, an indoor football practice facility. Which, I guess, means that Trophy Club High School will have its own football team. And, I guess, it will need its own mascot. It will certainly have to have some type of Republican flavor considering the demographics. The Trophy Club Desert Storm? The Trophy Club Trickle Downs? The Trophy Club Shock and Awes? The Trophy Club Capital Gains?

I would say that a bunch of white boys will get killed in football but Highland Park and Southlake have proven that ain't necessarily so.
