- Limited interest that I found interesting: A Fort Worth lawyer goes off on a bonding company.
- I heard a term on the radio yesterday that I hadn't heard since I was a kid playing back yard baseball: Ghost Runner.
- The reason everyone should vote against the Republicans: The convention ended last night with, "Ladies and gentleman. Tonight's entertainment. Musicians Gretchen Wilson. John Rich [of Big and Rich], and Cowboy Troy." I had the life force sucked out of me.
- There is a Cultural Divide in this country unlike anything I've ever seen. And it will only get worse.
- They moved the Morning News and Star Telegram news racks across from the Messenger building to a new location about fifty feet away. And the guy in charge of stocking the Morning News still hasn't figured out that an empty rack at the end of the day means he didn't put enough papers in there.
- I wonder if anyone ever goes into the Decatur Visitor's Center (in the old post office building)?
- New Jessica Simpson "Hey, now."
- The home invasion robbery in Blue Mound that left one of the invaders dead was just crazy. My "there has to be some back story to this" radar went off, but I think it is what it is.
- The NFL opens tonight - the same night that McCain gives his acceptance speech. Who was in charge of that planning?
- I like watching Scarlett Johansson in films, but the only thing she appears in these days are movies made for the wine and cheese crowd at the Magnolia.
- Independence Day is an awful movie. (Very random thought.)
- BMX rider face plant.
- Somebody needs to do something about the red light at FM 51 and Preskitt Road in Decatur. Nothing drives me more crazy than a light that turns red when there is no cross traffic.
- And there's a camera on top of that red light. What's that for? Is there some "command center" underneath Decatur that I don't know about?
- I don't know why I watched the whole 7 minute speech of Sarah Palin speaking to her hometown church before she was the VP nominee, but I did. That's like something you would hear in any protestant church in Wise County.
- Palin's got a slight Fargo accent.
- Dang it, I'm getting political again: For all of you that go goo goo over Palin, you can't criticize those that go goo goo over Obama. Both individuals have thin resumes but have millions of people that simply believe in them.
- Didn't watch the final episode of Hard Knocks last night. The first episode started out great but it went downhill after that.
- After last year's Fantasy Football draft, I took a picture of a dead snake that our County Attorney had killed on his own property that ended up being (and I'm not making this up) some kind of protected serpent. After I posted the pic, somebody called the Game Warden, and the CA ended up paying a $500 fine. I get reminded of that incident. Often.
