Star-Telegram: Copy Editor Wanted

Within the story.:

"The Star-Telegram is not identifying the parents or the child to protect the identity of the boy, who is now 13."

That is, until you click on the photo next to the story and the mom's name is within the caption.

(Thanks, Kevin.)

Little Kid Denied

Listen, son, you've got to take control of the dance floor! Get back in there, toss that mean little girl to the side, and get those little feet a movin'.

Jesse In Bridgeport

If I heard it right, "Jesse in Bridgeport" owns a Bible that was autographed by Hitler.

At least that's what Greg "The Hammer" Williams just said on The Fan (as they discuss the value of odd items in "Greggo's Junk" segment.)

Random Monday Morning Thoughts

Heard this weekend: Pain and despair are completely different
I'm on my own this week -- the Family Unit is at Walt Disney World. (Planned months ago.)
And I had to take them to the airport at around 4:00 in the morning yesterday. I was kind of paranoid about the wrong way, late night driver you always hear about.
Also heard this weekend: Life is a series of deaths and births. Whether it be relationships, experiences, jobs, or people.
Fiona is following me on Twitter!
Craig's List killer found dead. (I actually saw the "Craig" of Craig's List on TV the other day. He was older and frumpier than I thought he'd be.)
In high school, we had 35 minutes for lunch and we didn't have a cafeteria on campus. How insane was that?
The new ownership group of the Rangers actually has 18 investors, but we don't know their names. I want to know.
You'd have to have been crazy to attend the Rangers game yesterday afternoon.
I was in charge of four girls at a pool over the weekend. Survived a nosebleed and an emotional meltdown (one of the girls, not me.)
Jerry Jones had surgery last month but won't tell us what kind it was.
Shocking Dallas Cowboy tattoo seen yesterday at training camp.
Israel is buying twenty F-35l fighter jets (I don't even know what that means) from us for $4 billion. But I do know that's why no Arab country messes with them. They always retaliate tenfold.

Obama Backs Mosque Near Ground Zero

This is a mosque

After avoiding the controversy for weeks, President Obama endorsed the plan to build a mosque and Islamic center blocks away from New York's Ground Zero. "Ground Zero is, indeed, hallowed ground," Obama said at a White House dinner commemorating the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. "But let me be clear: as a citizen, and as President, I believe that Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country. That includes the right to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances."

For those that honor the Constitution's "Freedom of Religion" amendment, can you really disagree with that?

And I'll give him credit: The politically astute thing to do would be to please the masses and oppose it. Props to him.

What Could Possibly To Wrong?

"You're going the wrong way!"

"Yeah, you're not using the crosswalk!

Random Friday Morning Thoughts

Give me a second. I have an explanation. Kinda.
No, not gonna tell you.
Anyone who goes es to an NFL Preseason game is crazy. Anyone who tailgates a Preseason Game is delirious.
Keish$a was on the Today Show today. Mom was in the audience. Mom needs to get control of that girl's scene.
I got locked out of Google Gmail and Blogger yesterday. For a few moments I thought I had been hacked and it kinda freaked me out. But Google has a system where they will send a new password to your phone in such a situation. Thankfully.
I don't feel good.
I still despise Ann Curry.
I bet I haven't had a Big Mac in 15 years. And I love Big Macs.
It's Friday the 13th and the 13th day of 100 degree temperatures.
Developing. My wheels are off.
I've always had a crush on Tiffany Amber Thiessen.
The Messenger's Update looks as wheels of as me. Short. Abrupt. Rhome banned K2? Really?
No store in Rhome sells K2.
Worst guy in the world?
Hey, I'm about to change this here blog's URL to www.liberallylean.com.
I'm getting new carpet installed in my game room this morning. There's only one guy who showed up to do it. Seems like there would at least be two.
OK, the "Inferior Blogs" section might be screwed up. Working on it.
Dr. Laura (is she still on the air?) is in hot water for dropping the N Word. Over and over and over again.

Rush Limbaugh posts his wedding pics. He married a "Hey, now."
Rangers blew one last night. Big time. And remember when I told you yesterday that Frankie Fransisco is a train wreck? He confirmed it again.
And why would Cliff Lee ever re-sign with the Rangers? He can pitch anywhere in America and he'd choose to pitch in this heat? No way.
Nightmare: Toddler dies after snakebite at Possum Kingdom Lake.
By the way, that's one of the worst names ever for a lake.
I never heard of Bar Refaeli until about a year ago. Now the gal is in a bikini ever day on the Intertubes. And for that, I thank her.
Schools no longer give out "Ds"? (I've heard that on two different radio stations this week.)
I got to the grocery store a lot. Oddly, I kind of like it.
I wonder who the Decatur woman was that was killed in the one car wreck last night.
Fox 4 News led last night with the two day old story of the flight attendant bolting out of an airplane -- complete with an interview of a psychologist on "today's frustrated worker." Puuhleeze.
