Uh, Oh

The Messenger is at it again. Tomorrow's front page, above the fold, will have a photo of the mangled car that was involved in the wreck that killed Candace Richardson and her son. They always catch a lot of grief when they do so. Edit: To the commenter that had the hot opinion, I would have printed it but you've got hold back on the S bombs and F bombs. But it was a good rant.

Love Field To Littlle Rock

The Story.

Random Memory Burn

There's no reason to post this picture other than to tell you I can't get it out of my mind. I first saw it in September. It's (former) Arkansas coach Houston Nutt with a crazy look on his face. And then there's the quality of the TV screen - perfect. And then when you look closer and you realize it's a photo of a TV screen.

Lots going on there.

Wynonna?

Ms. Sorrell

While scanning the obituaries today (don't ask), I came across this sentence in the listing for Jennifer Sorrell:

Upon retiring, Jenny worked tirelessly to raise awareness of the need for [ovarian cancer] early detection, including . . . sharing her story of the life-saving foul ball off Soriano's bat.

That was it. No explanation. But The Google led me to the story.

Uh . . . I Be Fine Good

I get the craziest junk email.

Good Allen Hunting

Says here that former Bridgeport resident Allen Vaught (and current state legislator from Dallas) is going to be in Matt Damon's new movie.

Follow Up

The Star Telegram has a follow-up story on Candace Richardson, 54, and her son Shane Eichthaler, 15, who were killed this week in an auto accident in Decatur. Here.

Time Waste

I posted this before, but it's cool. Drag a state (it will appear at the top) to its proper place.

Link.

Distance

After a wild couple of days in Wise County, I can only take time out to note the Hulk Hogan's wife filed for divorce. Although it might be a publicity stunt for their "reality" TV show, we should all keep daughter Brooke in mind who spent the weekend by the pool in Malibu.

I refuse to post this picture.

I Think . . .

. . . every female State Trooper was at the OU/Tech game arresting students for rushing the field. Or about 1% of the fans that rushed the field. Youtube has it here.

More Info - And History

"We did recover . . . what is thought to be a suicide note from his residence - where he was staying. And he made some indications that he was going to come over here and take his own life."

And the shooter and the victim were in the news back in August. Link.

Maybe A Dog Attacking An Auburn Player Will Cheer Us All Up

From Saturday night. Another view here (with a flashback to another infamous dog attack.)

Bridgeport News

Getting a very sketchy report of "a man in a house in Bridgeport who is shooting." Police are there.

Developing.........maybe.

Edit: The Update says one woman has been shot and police are searching for the suspect.

Edit: Sheesh. The lack of info is killing me. But I'm out of touch for a couple of hours as I run to Fort Worth. Someone tell The Messenger to give us new info.

Edit: The Star Telegram is on it.

Edit: It appears the injured woman is Mary Boyd.

Edit: Getting reports the man has been found dead in the home. This is consistent with officers earlier hearing what were possibly gunshots from the house.

NFL Player Near Death? Dead

Details are sketchy. He was shot in the leg at his home last night but apparently lost a ton of blood. WBAP made is sound like he was in bad shape. Very bad shape.

Edit: ESPN is reporting he was shot in the groin. Ouch. But I don't think his condition is near fatal.

Edit: Shot where?


Edit: Taylor died Tuesday morning.
