Random Tuesday Morning Thoughts

• While you were sleeping: A man suspected of being behind the Times Square bomb was arrested trying to board a plane to Dubai last night.
• And the guy had a home in Bridgeport ..............Connecticut.
• The goofballs on Fox News this morning said, "I hope he wasn't read his Miranda rights."[Edit: That Brian guy in an off the cuff remark]. Sheesh. The guy is a naturalized U.S. citizen, accused of a crime on U.S. soil, and was arrested in the U.S. I thought "obeying the law" (i.e. immigration) was a big deal lately.
• While you were sleeping #2: A security guard fired at two guys in downtown Dallas who had a safe from the Sixth Floor museum loaded on to the back of their truck via a wench. [Edit: Too funny to correct.] They fled. I wonder what's in the safe?
• A picture of Tony Romo and that guy from The Hangover. (This was before the Whitehouse Correspondence dinner last weekend.)
• I liked it yesterday when that small band of thunderstorms moved through. Then you had sun and clear skies in the West and a dark-as-night blanket of clouds in the East.
• You'll see rookies hold out of NFL training camps until a contract is signed, but they never hold out of the summer mini-camps. What happens if Dez Bryant had torn his Achilles last weekend? (Former UT star Limas Sweed fell victim to that very injury on Sunday.)
• Redneck Mother's Day gift out of Springtown (via Craigslist.)
• I had to break into a closed inside locked door (mine) this weekend. I did it with a hack saw blade -- without the saw.
• We know the Super Bowl is coming to Arlington in 2011 but they are now seeking to bring it back in 2016. I'll bet they get it.
• ESPN's 30 for 30 (its mini-documentaries) featured former Longhorn Ricky Williams last week. It was awful.
• I've lost about 11 pounds on Nutrisystem (and a heck of a lot of running.) That's about a pound a week.
• Jessica Biel in some "Hey, now" boots.
• Speaking of Texas, they've got a Big 12 conference win streak in baseball going on -- I think it's at 20. They beat Baylor twice over the weekend. Both times in extra innings. Ugh.
• There were only 8,874 at the Rangers game in Oakland last night.
