- I forgot to mention last week that Greg Abbott on The Ticket just casually mentioned, "In case you didn't know, I'm in a wheelchair because a tree fell on me." Hey, buddy, that doesn't make you FDR.
- I've dogged Dave Carney, the political consultant for the failed Dan Dewhurst campaigns (both against Ted Cruz and Dan Patrick) as well as they very failed Rick Perry presidential campaign, for years. I found the guy on Twitter last night and discovered he tweets like a drunken sailer. Abbott is using him now and will win, but it is despite of what is probably the worst campaign advisor in the history of Texas.
- From the Update: "The Decatur City Council on Monday voted unanimously to move the city’s trick or treat observance to Thursday, Oct. 30, to avoid a conflict with the Eagles’ final home football game the following night, Oct. 31." What? Everyone knows you can't jack with Halloween! This is a horror movie in the making!!! Hide yo wife, hide yo kids!
- Nope, Ebola is not a problem in the U.S. (I did a double take this morning when Channel 11 had a story about a potential new case of a person who came in contact with the infected nurse. Then I saw this sentence: "According to the emailed note, the Alcon employee was admitted to the hospital on Sunday and is being monitored for Ebola symptoms. However, the man has not shown any signs of being sick." Good grief.)
- Hey, that goofy Texas Supreme Court judge is sending Nazi messages!!!
- Man, I've been sick the last two days.
- Kindergarten teacher quits to twerk on Vine and make six figures. (Borderline NSFW.) I doubt this is a good sign for our country's future.
- Alabama's Tommy Lewis, the guy who famously came off the bench to make a tackle in the Cotton Bowl, has died. Photo impressions: (1) Are we sure that guy would have scored? (2) Everyone in the background looks like a gangster.
- I haven't been to a concert in years, but I wish I would have seen Paul McCartney last night in Dallas. (Video clips.)
- Hot check book-in photo from Denton. That sad young lady is a Bonnie Raitt starter kit.
- Our Internet went out yesterday which also meant our TVs went out. Couldn't even play back DVR shows. Throw in that the new washing machine won't be delivered until later this week which caused Mrs. LL to take a trip to the laundromat, and it was a dark day indeed. I'm not sure how we survived.
- "Laundromat" is a funny word.
- Funny picture below once you read the headline to the far right.
