We Should Have Sent Decatur's Speedo Man
I can appreciate a "Santa Speedo Run" in Boston just like the next guy (pics here.) But I didn't know the grim reaper (background) was a fan.
Houston Law Firm Hires Bon Jovi For Christmas Party.
Story. (Last year it was Miley Cyrus.)
I always remember a sign in Boyd in front of an old bar on 114 in 1980s that announced that the band "Buck Naked" would be performing on Saturday nights.
If I had a Christmas Party, that would probably be the best band I could hire.
Random Monday Morning Thoughts
I ran the White Rock Half Marathon yesterday. Finished strong. No desire or need to walk. And even though I finished about eight minutes slower than I did in Fort Worth in February (what the heck?), I'll take that every time.- I love the environment over there during the run. Tons of people come out on the streets for support.
- Favorite sign: "Catch the Kenyans!"
- At about the six mile mark, I saw a guy (who was a spectator) on his knee in the middle of the road proposing to a gal who was running. She had a look on her face like, "I'm in the middle of a freakin' race here!!!"
- No offense to the safety of Dallas, but there's no way I would run the Katy Trail alone. It looks like Ambush City with all the foliage next to the trail.
- There's something very cool about some stranger along the way catching your eye and yelling, "Good job!" For some reason I always mouth "Thank you" back at them.
- The last half mile I was listening to that song from Slumdog Millionaire: Jai Ho.
- I'm feeling pretty good about my Cowboy prediction of finishing 1-4.
- I couldn't find my wallet this morning and that drives me crazy. I'm a little worried.
- I went to an office Christmas party on Saturday. It got a little tense when a possibly intoxicated employee made a wise crack during the owner's speech and then the owner acknowledged the comment while speaking. Uh. Oh.
- Speaking of parties, the Wise County Republicans and the Wise County Women Republicans are having a combined Christmas party tonight. The cops need to be on standby for that blowout.
- Any news story today about this being "the busiest mailing day of the year" is just filler.
- Ate at that sushi place off of Western Center Boulevard again the other night. But there's no way I'm eating sushi there. (They have other Asian food as well.)
- Is the Tiger Woods fall from grace the biggest sports story of the decade? Probably.
- I think Accenture got more publicity for dropping Tiger than for signing Tiger.
- Doesn't it seem that climbers die on Mt. Hood every year? (They are looking for a lost group over the weekend.)

I Presume They Mean Newark, NJ
Hunt recently moved from Denton, and Priddy was living in Newark, Maj. Ray Tuttoilmondo, a Galveston County Sheriff’s Office spokesman, said.
But this story was sent to me, so who knows?
Note To Fellow Wise County Lawyer People
Did you know, as of this morning, we are forever going to be memorialized in the official Southwestern Reporter?

Woman Calls 911 For Wrong Order
I'm with this chick. When a gal wants a Western Burger made right, she wants a Western Burger made right. How hard it that? Last week I almost called Decatur PD when Taco Bell didn't understand "Ranchero Chicken Soft Taco - Fresco Style."
Police are here to protect and to serve? Sheesh.
(And is Sacramentee any where close to Sacramento?)

I Hate These Things
- I'm at a criminal law seminar at the University of North Texas
- I've seen a few people I know. Just as soon not know anyone
- The next topic is 'immigration consequences'
- I like the current speaker but I've heard this same schtick four
times before
- I'm going to walk around campus at lunch
- Listening to a girl gripe about the Denton's DA's office about a
probation revocation. Some things are universal.
- The guy beside me has on a tight Affliction like tshirt
- He's sitting by a gal with a HUGE diamond wedding ring
- Just found out they were married. So much for fun Tiger Woods like
speculation.
- Criminal defense lawyers normally look like they're homeless at
these things
- Except me
- It may be North Texas Boulevard now but to me it will always be
Avenue D
- we have free coffee but no free soft drinks. Ugh.
- The school newspaper calls Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind the
best movie of the decade. Really?

Random Friday Morning Thoughts
- When radio DJs used to say, for example,"We'll take the 97th caller for a chance to win [something]" did they just take the first caller after waiting a while, or did they actually reject 96 people before taking the 97th call.
- I recorded that Jersey show on MTV last night but haven't watched it yet.
- The SMU student that was kidnapped and raped may have been the victim of illegal aliens. Once that news broke, the Dallas Morning News had to shut down comments on a story.
- Since I got so much heat over (what I thought) was a light hearted post over a nativity scene at the courthouse, I went back and researched some Supreme Court opinions on the Establishment Clause. I thought it was funny that the following phrase was used in the lead opinion: "Perhaps in the early days of the Republic these words were understood to protect only the diversity within Christianity, but today they are recognized as guaranteeing religious liberty and equality to 'the infidel, the atheist, or the adherent of a non-Christian faith such as Islam or Judaism.'"
- Taylor Swift bought a hair straightener thingy. Not bad.
- Isn't there a huge difference in not believing in global warming and not believing global warming is caused by carbon emissions?
- It's tough out there: A big Dallas law firm slashes first year lawyer salaries to $120,000.
- I unexpectedly saw a girlfriend from 15 years ago yesterday. That's so much fun when that happens.
- Lots of people with sins as large as Tiger Woods sure are throwing stones at him.
- We are supposed to have faith in Wade Phillips when he dresses like this?
- I'm going to be in Costa Rica during the National Championship game. And the closest town has no paved roads. This is gonna be tricky trying to find a TV.
- I've got a 911 tape from Decatur PD sitting on my desk. I love the anticipation before I listen to those things.
- I think I saw Christina Aguilera in a commercial the other day. I've missed her ever since she dropped out of sight to become a Baby Momma.

Redneck?
But like all things on the Internet, I question if that was a truly functioning TV before it got blasted to Kingdom Come.
But it is a Christmas Miracle that the guy at 3:35 didn't get his fool head cut off.
Random Thursday Morning Thoughts
- Channel 8 story on Decatur's Jackie Murphree being pushed for Sunday's White Rock Marathon. I think her civil lawsuit is still pending, by the way.
- Stumbled across Nip/Tuck last night. Good grief, when did it jump the shark? Oh yeah, that was Season Two.
- Cowboys Roy Williams irritates me to no end with his Hook 'Em Horns hand sign whenever he (rarely) scores a touchdown. I guess he's just trying to relive the days when he was relevant.
- I like gloves. Gloves are underrated.
- Danica Patrick, who announced yesterday that she will race on some Saturdays next year in the NASCAR series, is one of the most bitter girls I've ever seen --- and for no reason. Edit: Hey, NASCAR Bubba who chided me by saying, "NASCAR races on Sunday." Not the Nationwide series. I hate NASCAR and even I knew that.
- What Microsoft's Windows is to the Apple Computer, Google's new Android operating system for mobile phones will be to Apple's iPhone. The Android will explode over the next five years.
- As much as I like college football, I'm appalled at Congress' trying to meddle with the BCS.
- If you are familiar with "auto-tune" (which is the cause of the death of music) and you keep up with pop culture news, you'll love The Year In Auto-Tune.
- Have you seen the clip of the girl getting hit by a guy in tonight's episode of The Jersey Shore on MTV. Good grief.
- I'm headed to an office Christmas party of Saturday night. I like it because it's not my office party. But it'll drive me nuts if the owner stands up and talks about profits instead of the employees.
- Hot teachers have now moved on to each other.
- That cute little kid from Family Ties isn't so cute anymore.
- No offense to any Facebook friends, but I could not care less about how you are performing in "Mafia Wars."
- President Obama formally received the Nobel Peace Prize this morning. It makes me happy simply because it drives the right wing nuts.

Did he cure cancer or something when I wasn't paying attention?
