Random Friday Morning Thoughts

• Lots of news stations ran a quick clip of the "botox bandit" because she was pretty hot in court. I'm pretty sure they ran it because, well, she was pretty hot in court. 
• Motorcycle death at Northside and Main in Fort Worth last night led to arrest for Intoxication Manslaughter.
• Mrs. LL had to go outside at 2:00 a.m. because the dog needed to "potty". I just had to take a break because the cat was tearing up a kitchen table flower arrangement.
• All of a sudden I have a desire to see the movie Pet Cemetery.
• Saw a press release yesterday where TXI lost a big bag of money last quarter. Is it still a big player over in Bridgeport?
• Cowboys Stadium is turning into the premiere season opening venue for college football. Likely to open the 2012 season: Alabama v. Michigan.
• I don't think I've watched a season premiere of a new sitcom in years, but I caught Outsourced last night that came on right after The Office. The premise? A young American is shipped off to India to manage the telephone help center for a U.S. novelty company. Verdict: Really, really funny.
• And I love how NBC promoted it. The show fired up the second The Office ended with no commercials and then ran 20 straight minutes without any other commercial break. 
• Did you know a second grader can talk your ear off?
• Boy, I was wrong about the "dog scent lineup" case making the news. I haven't seen it anywhere. 
• More lack of class from Dallas DA Craig Watkins in a debate yesterday when asked about the difference between himself and his opponent: "I have a backbone and a brain."
• There was a bad wreck that shut down 114 at FM 51 yesterday evening, but I have no other details.
• An H-E-B grocery store is opening in Burleson today. You go to Waco and on southward and you'll see them everywhere.
• Elton John is playing at the Tarrant County Convention Center in November? That just seems weird.
• I've always been skeptical of the "consultant" and UNT just paid one $2,000 a day for this.
• Hot sports opinions: Rangers lose in first playoff series. Cowboys win this weekend. Arkansas beats Alabama.
• Edit: I forgot to mention that the death of Eddie Fisher was all over the news this morning, and CNN even made it "breaking news." I'll admit, I've never heard of him.
