- Feels like Fall this morning. That's-a-good.
- A fantasy football draft (mine occurred last night - photo below) with 14 teams and 15 rounds can turn into a beating
- My league actually paid Yahoo $129 for its fantasy football package because it had some extra features we had to have that the free version didn't.
- The Star Telegram home page is still "Tracking Hurricane Gustav." I think it's in Cottondale now
- The Republican National Convention seemed very white last night.
- Lot's of Bird Hunting Talk at the courthouse yesterday
- I had another taillight go out on the family truckster. I actually had a spare replacement light from last week so I was able to change it on the spot. Never had that happen before.
- I'm not sure I understand the Burning Man celebration. It looks like a bunch of hippies. But I would kind of like to go see it.
- Obama got the expected "bump" from the Democratic Convention as he now leads McCain 50% to 42% in the Gallup Poll.
- I don't like going to bed at midnight and getting up at 5:00 a.m.
- I appreciate the banter in the comments between Right Wing and Left Wing but I don't think either side is subject to being persuaded to change
- I don't think we expect much out of life.
- "Glamour models Rosie Jones, Amy Diamond and Katie Downs march down Oxford Street in London wearing lingerie to promote the reopening of the Ann Summers store." In America, we settle for a ribbon cutting with big, fake scissors.
- A college president gets photographed holding a mini-beer bong over a coed's mouth in a boat and ends up being forced to resign with a $400,000 severance package? Sign me up.
- Nicholas Cage makes about three movies a year. Most of them bad. (Saw him briefly on David Letterman last night while I was channel surfing.)
- I drove through Granbury for the first time in years last weekend (home of Jarhead, I believe.) Man, that place is built up. Big time.
- The boyfriend of the pregnant daughter of Sarah Palin apparently had a myspace page referring to himself as a "redneck", dropped some profanity, and said he "didn't want kids." You knew that scrutiny was coming.
- Had a guy ask me last weekend when the NFL season started. If he didn't know, it probably didn't matter to him very much.
- It was still amazing how McCain went from a non-contender to the nominee overnight in the primaries earlier this year. Time magazine has a time line this week showing he won Florida on January 29th and most of the states on Super Tuesday on February 5th. And the election was over in a matter of eight days.
- Politics truly does give me Tired Head
- I haven't been to a rodeo since I was forced to because of a double date. It was a bad date and I still had to sit through the rodeo.
