Random Thursday Morning Thoughts

• There was a pretty big fire outside of the next door condo last night. Mrs. LL even called 911.
• Four motorcycle deaths in two days in Fort Worth?
• Mrs. LL used to eat her hamburger upside down.
• The Fourth Grader in the Condo and I successfully located the buried football. That was pretty fun.
• The weather is a tad cool this week for Florida but I think I'd rather take a long beach walk at 65 degrees, slight breeze, and sunny than with a temperature of 95.
• Everyone is on a quest for the perfect sand dollar. Did I read those things were once alive?
• The water boards that you stand on and navigate with a paddle are called YOLO boards down here. Idiocracy?
• The college kids that go full throttle on Spring Break probably aren't the leaders of tomorrow. 
• If we get our act together, we are going to canoe on something called the Blackwater River today.  I wish I had a bow and armor ala Deliverance. 
• Ever Big 12 school as a Simpsons character. Who could possibly be Flanders?
• About once a day, two low flying helicopter fly down our beach. Mrs. LL yells, "Get some! Get some!" Every time. That's a Full Metal Jacket reference. 
• There were three people in the Update's death announcements yesterday 51 years of age and younger. I don't feel so guilty about a spring break vacation any longer. 
• I see eleven fishing boats heading out right now. 
• A group of cardinals in a room electing a new pope reminds me of the closed sports writers electing players to the NFL Hall of Fame.
• Google is shutting down Google Reader which kills me because I use it many times a day.
• Why is he not Pope Francis the first?
