Random Tuesday Morning Thoughts
- Wise County court docket's for yesterday and today are crazy.
- Having a woman get stabbed at a DART station doesn't exactly make one want to use public transportation. (Happened early this morning.)
- OU offensive coordinator, who led the team to a national championship when he was QB, has been fired this morning.
- The Ticket was talking about Miss America this morning. Didn't Denton County have two back to back winners? Wasn't Phyllis George one of them?
- Power Down words I heard last night; "It's Bachelor marathon evening!" (Maybe for you Mrs. LL, but I. Am. Out.)
- I've worn a Fitbit for two weeks and still haven't read the instructions.
- A new Congress and a new Texas legislature. Hide yo' wife. Hide yo' kids.
- And the Right Wing trying to promote Rep. Louie Gohmert as House Speaker over John Boehner a huge favor by trying to take him down on Tuesday. That ain't gonna happen.
- After the controversial call/non-call in the Detroit/Dallas game, I was reminded that the NFL vice president of officiating, Dean Blandino, was on the Cowboys "party bus" with Jerry and Stephen Jones back in August. I had completely forgotten about that.

Random Monday Morning Thoughts
- I watched a little of Joel Osteen yesterday. Let me tell you the formula: "You might be having financial troubles. You might have been in a relationship you shouldn't have been in. You might be suffering from some type of addiction. You might have have said something to a family member you shouldn't have." What? You are trying to connect to 99% of your audience?
- If you are a fan of The Office you understand "That's what she said." Hey, it's a tired bit and I've retired it. But then, on Saturday, Mrs. LL made a comment about a burrito she brought home. I pinched my lips together. She saw what was going through my mind and then bombarded me with innuendos. I'm not sure I have laughed so hard in years.
- We are re-watching Breaking Bad and it's better than I remembered. And I thought it was great the first time.
- I'm convinced that the new Family Pup #2 is mentally challenged. It may be the dumbest animal I've ever seen. Every time you see her, she looks up with this expression of "Who are you?" Hey, pup!!! I'm the one who saved you from traffic!!!!
- It's a weird phenomenon when the Kids In The House start making incredibly witty/funny comments. Hey, don't grow up!!!
- Meathead Rob Lowe is my favorite Rob Lowe.
- Sports: Going for it on 4th down now seems in vogue -- and I'm a huge fan.
- BagOfNothing is revealing more about his sex life this morning. If any of you guys want to form a posse and join me to confront him later today, let me know. He's putting way too much pressure on us.
- No one seems like they've grown up in, and still lives in, a bubble more than Mike Huckabee.
- Mrs. LL yells at me when she walks in and sees me steaming because I've been watching Fox News.
- I hate January.

That Australian Hurdler Chick Taking You Into The Weekend
(It's a little racy. Nothing more than you'd see on Entertainment Tonight, but a little racy.)
The "Lift Up" Move From Dirty Dancing
I've never wanted to see more of a video in my life. A beautiful setting with a Christmas tree in the background. Then we start with a very weak Dirty Dancing move -- hey, the girl doesn't get close to horizontal -- and then she hits the dance floor with a sound that is borderline haunting. Follow that up with a little bit of shoe movement and then nothing as she goes into a crucifix position.
Was there a dance floor death in the news I missed? Hey, it's Murder on the Dance Floor!
Could Have Been Mrs. LL and Me During The Baylor Game
But, man, that caption is dead on. She looks up, sees they are on screen, and goes into damage control mode in an instant. It's very Pam-like from The Office.
Random Friday Morning Thoughts
- I'll admit it. That Baylor loss was gut wrenching. I now know what TCU felt like when it gave up 21 to Baylor in the last 10 minutes. How in the world did it happen? Baylor has stolen probably three or four games over the last couple of years so it's hard to complain.
- There's not a dimes worth of difference between TCU, Baylor, and Michigan State. All are better than Florida State. I'm not sure any of them could beat Alabama, Ohio State or Oregon.
- Putting the two college playoff games on New Year's Day was a fantastic idea. Felt like the old days.
- Mrs, LL is a fan of Florida State because of the Tomahawk Chop fan sign. (Sign? Isn't there a better word than that?)
- I recorded the second half of the Alabama/Ohio State game last night and decided to go to bed. Mrs. LL was surprised but then we decided to start watching Breaking Bad (for way too long). But I kept away from social media because I wanted to watch game the next morning. When I got up at 6:30 to let the dogs out, Mrs. LL woke up and said, "You're not going to watch the rest of that game are you?" Me: "Probably." Her: "Well, I'm getting up to watch it, too." Promise. We watched the end of the game at 6:35 a.m. this morning.
- Edit: She fell asleep during the fourth quarter as I'm writing this. (Great game.)
- During the game, a guy named Steve Miller had an interception return for a TD. The PA system then fired up "Take The Money and Run". Genius.
- After letting the dogs out, I realized the Christmas lights were still on outside and quickly decided to turn them off for the last time for the season. But the ground was wet. I didn't have my shoes so I made the executive decision to take my off my socks and walk outside only to see my neighbor staring at me. Hey. Don't judge.
- CNN's New Year's Eve show with Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin is borderline insane.
- Back To The Future 2 was based on the year 2015.
- There is a crazy 18 wheeler tanker fire on I-20 this morning. The whole freeway is shut down while the thing blazes away.
- The new Tarrant County DA tweeted yesterday something to the effect of "We will never be ashamed of following the letter of the law." I've got a bad feeling about the new administration. It's not the law I'm worried about.
- And there's already something weird going on with the DA's office. Its website is jacked up. And I can't find the twitter account of the office which used to be run by a former Star-Telegram reporter.
- I rarely get to watch The Today Show any more, but it looks like Al Roker has taken on the annoying characteristics of the shunned Ann Curry. Basically, false sincerity.
- There's a shocking stat in BagOfNothing this morning. And I do mean shocking.

Well, Baylor Is Up By 20+, Looks Like We Have A Cotton Bowl Victory !!!!
But I am happy to report that the Baylor kicker did not die.
Edit (the next day): There's always next year . . .
