- Closed: Decatur ISD, Chico ISD, Alvord ISD, Boyd ISD, Slidell ISD, Bridgeport ISD, Paradise ISD. #IceForceLevelOne
- The tough call for schools this morning is the possible second wave of ice after 10:00 p.m. And with at least four deaths in the metroplex in the last 12 hours (including a Northwest High School student), I'm glad it's not my call.
- Shirley Temple has died.
- For you Bill O'Reilly fans, how long have they been doing that "The Watters Factor" bit with Jessie Waters? Although he is basically stealing from The Daily Show, I'll agree it's well executed. Not clever. But well done.
- The high tone Keller lady, who was first charged with murdering her husband, but later pled guilty to only Tampering with Evidence and Deadly Conduct, really screwed up her case by talking. Since she had not yet been sentenced, once she proclaimed openly that she wasn't guilty, the judge had no choice then to reject her plea of guilty. Now the murder case is back on the table. But the prosecution has already expressed doubts about the strength of that case -- that's why they initially agreed to a lesser plea. What a mess.
- There never has been arrest in that "hit", likely orchestrated by a drug cartel, in the Southlake Town Center.
- Junior Miller on The Ticket raved about The Americans this morning. Better than House of Cards?
- The Lego Movie has a 95% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes and grossed $69 million on its opening weekend. (It more than doubled The Monuments Men which doesn't look nearly as good as it should.)
- Look at this couple who ranked second in a list of "Texas Most Generous Families in 2013". He looks like a teenager.
- BagOfNothing made a reference to Neil deGrasse Tyson this morning. That made me feel a little dumb in that I've never heard of him.
- I watched the Olympics on and off last night, but I did perk up when a guy won the gold medal in a speed skating event and then was booted down to the silver medal less than thirty seconds later due to a "timing error". Truly, the guy spent half a minute in sheer joy believing he had won the gold medal.
