Yesterday's Congratulatory Crotch Crab?

Just So You Know

Over the last three months, more U.S. soldiers have died in Iraq than in any other three month span. That number: 329.

Let's get out of there. A civil war is inevitable. The fact that the land will become more unstable than before Saddam is inevitable. The fact that oil prices will skyrocket is inevitable.

There is no way to end this war which is really not a war at all. Who, exactly, would sign the Declaration of Surrender?

Thank you, President Bush. The only one that doesn't realize all of this is you.

I Get Hundreds Of Spam Emails A Day

But these kinds are showing up more and more: Hi, i am here sitting in the internet caffe. Found your email and decided to write. I am 25 y.o.girl. I have a picture if you want. No need to reply here as this is not may email. Write me at alisa293@supervisioncare.info I suppose it's just a way to for the sender to find out their recipient has an active email account. Either that or I'm going out with a 25 year old girl who just sits around in an Internet "Caffe" and sends random invites to email addresses she just happens to find. I think I'm in love.

A Little Leaven

This blog is pretty interesting. He's an old school bible guy who is non-too-pleased with the "progressiveness" of some of today's churches.

And he did not like the Victory Family Church of Decatur billboard campaign. Here's a sample of what he said if you don't want to click on that link: "Victory Family Church has wandered off into Seeker-Sensitive La-La Land. They don't preach and teach sound doctrine, or Jesus Christ Crucified for Sinners. They exist to make 'dream families' instead of disciples grounded in the words of scripture and sound doctrine. They preach about man instead of Christ."

A Foot High

And look how that level shot straight up over the last couple of days. Of course, it has to stop raining before any of us can enjoy it.

That's Cool

So I'm sitting around in my Hugh Hefner robe on Saturday morning and saw that the super hot Maria Sharapova was playing at Wimbledon. So I stop down to check her out for a little bit. Well, there was a disputed call so they went to the "official replay." I had heard about the new replay system, but had not seen it. I'm not doing it justice with the screen shot, but the crowd, players and TV audience get to simultaneously see a computer re-creation of the last shot. In slow motion, we see the ball with a yellow trajectory to tell us whether it's in or out.

Very cool.

Now back to Maria.

ABC Movie Critic Joel Siegel

. . . has died. I always liked him.

7:15 On Friday - Screenshot

This is getting comical. And there looks like more coming.

Greatest Book-In Tattoos

About a dozen more here. And this doesn't come close to being one of the good ones. People are crazy.

Hey, Buddy, An iPhone Doesn't Look Like A Mic

"Moments after FNC reporter Laura Ingle said, 'We're going to need some security around here,' a man ran up and grabbed the mic -- not the iPhone -- during a live shot with Newsweek columnist Steven Levy outside an Apple Store in NYC."

Today on Fox.

Band On The Run

It'll be gone soon, but this radar on Friday afternoon is amazing in that it shows this narrow band of showers that has Decatur right in it path. And its raining. Hard.

Just Received This

It may be fake, but it's still funny.

USA! USA! USA!

The Road To Jacksboro Looked Ominous

And here's a very bad picture of the lake. That little island (which is not an island when the lake is down) is near the bridge on the east side.

The #1 Pick . . .

. . . in the NBA draft, Greg Oden, says, "I like to get my freak on at My Place On The Lake at Runaway Bay."

Mark Cuban Gone Crazy?

"Cuban is [counter-] suing [former Mavs Coach Don] Nelson, claiming the Warriors beat the Mavs in the first round because the Warriors' coach -- and former coach of the Mavs -- had 'confidential information and he [Cuban] wants to enjoin Don from coaching against the Mavericks.'" Story. Huh? First it was the refs fault and now it's Don Nelson's? Randy Galloway had the funniest line: "If Cuban wants to sue someone over the Golden State debacle, why not Dirk?"

This Guy Is An Internet Legend

But he has resurfaced again after killing a jailer last week during an escape. I'm speechless. And the Hitler on the chest is a nice touch.
