- I listened to Randy Galloway's last radio sign off yesterday. He had about as much emotion as someone in a rush at McDonald's saying a hurried, "Thank you" to the clerk. Except in the last 15 minutes I didn't hear a single "Thank you" to anyone. Not his co-workers, boss, or audience.
- There seems to be more and more little pop up ads for other shows that appear during broadcasts of other TV shows. A very faithful reader tipped me off as to how one recently went very wrong.
- This is tricky: Dallas ISD has learned that one of its teachers, now 21, posed for Playboy when she was 18. She teaches in high school (which means the students there are becoming instant experts in Google images research.) The school district has to let the situation -- but not her -- go, right?
- Yeah, every appliance I own is breaking down but most of them are ten years old. I'll take that life span for the replacements.
- I'm kind of surprised that the Republicans didn't add to their budget demands a provision to defund any efforts to enforce the Civil Rights Act or Voting Rights Act since they are on a roll. And then when the Democrats again tell them "no way", the House can say the Senate refuses to negotiate.
- A conservative writes that "The GOP Is Losing Young Christians" because of the GOP's hard line stances.
- "The man the city of Fort Worth had hoped would reorganize and lead its troubled code enforcement department was arrested recently for shoplifting." That's not a good start for a man in charge of enforcing laws.
- I'm not sure exactly what happened, but I heard about a guy charged with a felony who was deviant in district court last week over in Jacksboro and was demanding a quick trial. I'll bet the house he's going to get one.
- I've mentioned that the demise of football might be possible in the future due to concussion research. But no amount of research will usher the sport out quicker than these stories: "LOST CREEK, W.Va. — South Harrison High School football player Dylan Jeffries died Sunday, nine days after suffering a severe head injury during a football game." I still say its going to happen in the NFL or college.
- Hey gamblers: The line on the Baylor/Kansas State game moved from Baylor by 10 to Baylor by 17.5 yesterday. A 7.5 change never happens, right?
- I felt bad for the lack of news today until I noticed the Update led off with the Greenwood Fall Festival followed by a fire department fundraiser note.
