But you can get $750,000 for falsely being called gay? I'm calling my lawyer. If I had one.

That Put A Boot In My . . .


Just as I was getting comfortable in my adoption of the Sooners, ABC did this to me this weekend: They had that goofy Toby Keith introduce the starting Oklahoma line up.

The man wraps himself in the flag and then drains the life force out me.

Throw Down

Not sure where this camera angle came from, but I think it's the only video of the Kid Rock v. Tommy Lee "fight" at the MTV Awards last night. And stick around for the second video that automatically plays showing Jamie Foxx's reaction to the altercation. Funny stuff. Edit: Pamela gives him the what for.

Surely A Joke . . . I Think

Surging Along

Moveon.org has an ad today in The New York Times regarding today's testimony which will certainly be that the war occupation is going well.

Bond Amounts Confuse Me


It's Monday


I got nothing.

That Was A Lot Of Rain. WIth A Little More To Come.

Back At It







While I was watching the opening kickoff of the Cowboy game I missed Britney parading around in her bra and panties as she opened MTV Video Music Awards. I love this girl.

Uh, she might have lip synced. Like, a lot. And the video was posted on the Internets within 2o minutes.

Rice And Beans

Some quarterback from Baylor threw six TD passes last night, setting a school record, in a 42-17 win over Rice. I didn't know God hated Rice so much.

And it wasn't televised. The high point of Baylor Football for the year (decade?) and those few of us who care didn't get to see it. And the crowd in the above pic looks a little sparse as well.

Planes, Trains, and . . . I'm Awake Now

So the guy that sends me the pic of the American Airlines jet sends me this pic that he took. But he didn't explain how he got it. Anyway, as I sit here and watch the Cowboy game (not-a-good in the beginning), I thought I'd at least throw the pic out at ya. Maybe it's some rich Wise County person.

Can I Do At Least One College Football Post?

The Aggies had to go to three overtimes to finally defeat Fresno State 47-45 (heck of a game.) But that angst you hear is coming from fans of TCU and The Evil Empire whose game was pre-empted for an incredible 68 minutes (with 12:40 left in the 2nd quarter) on FSN due to the prolonged Agriculturist victory.

How Big Is That Kid?


Stumbled across this year's team photo of the Decatur Eagles. How big is #78 who is located back row, center? They always put the tallest kids on the back row, and he seems a good six inches taller than the rest of them.

Fred Thompson's Alleged Trophy Wife




My interest in a potential First Lady has never been so high.

Found. Laughed. Cut and Pasted.

Remember Toads, there is no reason to fear the Evil Empire.

HIgh School Results

Here. Bulls beat 4A Mineral Wells?

Take Two



Last year, the City of Decatur paved its roads. After determining that the process was essentially Elmer's Glue and pebbles, it was a matter of days until it became clear that it was the worst paving job in the history of ever.

Well, while walking up to the courthouse a second ago, I saw that Decatur is taking another stab at it. That's a road covered in taxpayer black gook. Let's hope it takes.

I Like These Things

A few months ago, I saw the UPS man up at the courthouse wearing this thing. Even though those guys run a hundred miles an hour, he couldn't stop talking about it. It's a stereo bluetooth enabled headset. The UPS guy had a phone that served as an MP3 player which, of course, beamed the music to the headset.

I bought a pair since my phone does the same thing. Greatness. And it has some controls on the side which allows you to answer phone calls. I'll wear it in the car and around the house, but I'm not wearing it out in public.
