- Fatality accident on 380 near Krum this morning that shut down the highway. I always worry that it's a Wise County resident because I think we use that stretch more than anyone else.
- The assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan occurred 30 years ago today. For me, that doesn't seem that long ago because I remember it. Kennedy's assassination, on the other hand, seems like a historical event that I can only read about.
- Idiocracy: Dallas radio station K104 has unveiled a new radio show called "Te Crazy Azz Morning Show."
- Chico school employees were told yesterday to expect a 5% pay cut across the board.
- Since my confrontation with the Neighbor Boys, things have been pretty quiet. I'm demanding my household thank me for 20 days of keeping them safe from attack.
- I told you I had a bad feeling about the Aggie/Baylor women's basketball game. The Lady Aggies beat them like a drum (with a smothering defense.)
- My prediction that the Rangers won't make the playoffs feels pretty good right now. That team has a bad vibe, and a bad pitching staff, coming out of spring training.
- The 5 Hour Energy Drink commercial where the guy says "Let's do this!" as he walks out the front door annoys me.
- The high school hockey brawl (which I still think I'm responsible for at least some of the local media explosion about) is a little odd because it was an amateur league that used high school team names. The UIL isn't involved at all.
- But appropriate credit for the video: It looks like the first place it was posted was at Ellis County's The Observer on Monday night.
- A school open house (went to one yesterday) makes me wonder how a teacher can keep a class of kids focused all day long.
- I got my hair chopped off for summer yesterday but had to endure the chatty hair-cutter person. (Was it OK to pull out a short-haired-picture of myself on my phone to show her what I want to look like.)
- Lots of folks commented yesterday about the title of the Skip Hollandsworth article about the serial murderer "you've never heard of." Hey, I had never heard about that story at all.
- "Obese Ohio Man Found Fused To Chair He Sat In For Two Years." Ok, how many questions jump in your mind right now? His live-in girlfriend called for help when he became unresponsive last weekend. Uh......girlfriend?
- Anyone have an opinion on Chuck Klosterman's series of books?
- The prosecutor in Willie Nelson's marijuana case might have been joking, but there's something amiss about his statement (other than proving he's a knucklehead): He said he would offer a plea bargain of a fine only if Willie would sing, and I quote, "Blue Eyes Smiling In The Rain" in open court.
- College football fans: The Fiesta Bowl scandal that broke yesterday might be the beginning of the end of the BCS.
- The tweeting snake is still a funny bit.
Edit: I'm killing any further Chico ISD posts. It's all been said, it's getting too personal, and some of the comments are pushing the envelope as to allegations.
