- Ben Affleck's Gone Girl opens this weekend. Christina Morris, a girl who went missing from the Shops at Legacy in Frisco a month ago, is still gone.
- Breaking: U.S. Employment rate falls to 5.9% -- lowest since July 2008. And the Stock Market is on a "six year bull run" according to the Dallas Morning News. 2008? 2008? What changed in 2008?
- I got hit with a full page pop ad this morning on the Star-Telegram's site advertising tickets for TCU/OU tomorrow. That's not a sellout already? Has to be.
- Anyone else see the irony of government employee Rick Perry showing up to assure us that government is doing all it can in this Ebola health care "crisis"? (He's known to often say that government shouldn't be in the health care business.)
- Who is paying for the Ebola Guy's health care?
- The name of "Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Catholic Church in Decatur" which is in the Update, made me think of Dan Aykroyd in The Blues Brothers when, before hitting the gas on the blues mobile, said, "Our Lady Of Blessed Acceleration, don't fail me now."
- I wouldn't mind being arrested for criminal trespass by Denton PD if I had a head of hair like this guy.
- Whatever happened to Katherine Harris? (She's the former AG of Florida who was instrumental in manipulating the Bush/Gore election). It sounds like after a brief political career at the federal level, her wheels fell off.
- The funeral of J.D. Clark's dad began with a ZZ Top song. Heck, that's fine. The service wasn't in a church (it was at the Chico football field) and it meant a lot to the family. (And I'm on record as saying I want my ashes shot out of a cannon from the courthouse bell tower so who am I to judge?)
- The official journal of TDCAA (that's Texas prosecutors) had a silly article on the prosecution of a "sovereign citizen" for a traffic ticket as it's front feature last month. Shockingly, the author/prosecutor wrote that the defendant who demanded due process was "bat shit crazy." (I'm not making that up. That's a direct quote. In print.) TDCAA normally posts all the articles of the publication online but that one is mysteriously missing when all the articles went up. No doubt, it's been scrubbed. I'll provide proof of all of this later.
- Mississippi is excited about tomorrow with the Aggies going to Mississippi State, and Alabama (and College Game Day) going to Ole Miss. All teams are unbeaten. Unfortunately, my college football joy was crushed when I pulled up the Mississippi paper below and saw that the Feds are still taking people's money on the assumption they are drug runners. (The Feds say the guy admitted it. Riiiiight.)
