Random Lunch Time Decatur Sight

I don't know much about gas pumps, but this "don't look right."

Random College Sports News

If you care about Texas or Aggie basketball, you'll be interested in this. (Edit: And, on another note, A&M has hired this guy as defensive coordinator for the football team - he swallowed a bullhorn somewhere along the way.) If you care about Baylor or Notre Dame football, you'll want to see this. If you want to see Danica Patrick being shot (as in, "with a camera") for the new Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue, click here.

Change Gears

I was going to post about how The Today Show always seems to have a person's attorney accompany them whenever interviewed. Take for example this lady/former mayor of Alice who stole that dog from her neighbor. She brings her lawyer along today who looks like The Godfather but never utters a word. Honestly, he didn't look alert enough to utter a word.

But, when I go to grab a screen shot of the moment, I noticed something I didn't when I saw it the first time. Check out the caption under "Dog Fight."

Edit: The whole video, which was pretty bizarre, is here.

Edit: A commentor made a reference to a shocking Jane Fonda moment later in the show. New clip, with the apology, here.

This Post Is For Me

Because my therapist told me I should post it and take six hydrocodones with a pitcher of rum and coke. This clip happened last night. I was actually walking across my living room when it stopped me down and sucked the life force out of me. It's really no big deal other than it is Exhibit A as to why I hate ESPN's Chris Berman. In it, he narrates the famous 1982 kick off return between Cal and Stanford and then . . . it happened. He started doing his stupid 'Whooop!" What's that? Think "waterboarding." Only worse. He's been doing that crap for 20+ years and he still thinks its funny. He actually prepared for the clip and thought, "Hey, that 'whoop' thing I do will absolutely kill during this clip. People out there will love it!" Now if I can only manage this child proof cap . . . .

Myth Buster?

I just got an email attaching this photo claiming it was shot in Iowa Park. "The guy who shot it is Delbert Eaton IIII and is 6 foot tall and weighs about 220 lbs. He was in a deer stand about 100 feet south of Smith Road and saw the cat pass him downwind carrying a turkey in his mouth He then saw it pass him upwind after dropping the turkey. When the cat passed him again (closer this time) downwind, he knew that it was hunting him. So BOOM!!"

But even the emailer was skeptical. And so am I.

I unleash you, dear readers, to confirm or deny. The truth is out there.

Hmmmm

In 2007, 18 students in Texas scored a perfect 2400 on the SAT exam.

The racial make-up:
11 - Asian
4 - White
2 - Left Blank
1 - "Other"

Edit: And I wonder what the total percentage of test takers were Asian to start with? Makes the 11 perfect scores even more interesting.

Ten-Sion

I'm really not interested in whether Roger Clemens took steroids, but this morning there is some huge tension in Congress where Clemens and his former trainer are testifying and sitting at the same table. (Sidenote: Congress has that much free time?)

Clemens says the trainer never injected him with steroids. The trainer says he did. Somebody's lying. Big time.

And this gem came from the trainer a moment ago: "I told the investigators I injected three people -- two of whom I know confirmed my account. The third is sitting at this table."

Clemen's head might explode right in front of the cameras.

Dude!

There is so much gold in this thing. -There's a little bit of Eric Cartman's: "You will respect my authority!" -There's some Pulp Fiction Samuel L. Jackson: "Say [dude] one more time. I dare ya! I double dare ya!" -And I love the cop himself, "A dude is someone who works on a ranch!!!"

If Jesus . . .

. . . were a pastor in a Fort Worth church who considered giving the homeless a place to sleep at the facility, tried to minister to sex offenders, and think about allowing gays to have their picture in the church directory, I wonder what would happen?

Uh, these days he'd be the ex-pastor of the Broadway Baptist Church.
