- My head exploded last night when I learned that the crazy pastor of FBC Dallas (1) has written a book called "Countdown to the Apocalypse: Why ISIS and Ebola Are Only the Beginning", (2) that Amazon describes him as a "prophecy insider", and (3) he was hawking the book on Hannity. I'm sure there is no one at his church who needs his assistance.
- Here's another odd "Viewers Voice After Dark" filmed by Fox 4's Steve Eager from his home. He comes across as if he is filming a ransom demand for someone he has in his basement.
- The Chris Kyle murder case jury is composed of 10 women and 2 men. That normally has the potential for a surprise verdict but, then again, it's still Erath County.
- I heard a rumor that yet another prosecutor quit the Tarrant County D.A.'s office yesterday, but it is not confirmed yet.
- The shooting of the Montage County deputy by the Nocona cop is just flat weird. They had to have know each other, right? And we still don't know the name of the Nocona officer?
- I blew past the OU vs. Iowa State men's game last night and the Oklahoma crowd was chanting the name of former Baylor player Brittney Griner (and I don't think it was in a positive way). Someone clue me in.
- Had an odd conversation about the old TV show Good Times at the courthouse the other day, and no one could remember how Janet Jackson's character came into the picture. In a crazy coincidence, I stumbled on that exact moment over the weekend and was a little taken back to learn it was because she was a neighbor kid who was the victim of child abuse.
- Whitney Houston's daughter will be taken off life support but the family wanted "to wait until Wednesday so she can die on the same date as her tragic mom." That's a little dark.
- All the major sports networks are running with the story of Cowboy great Tony Dorsett suffering from CTE ("a degenerative condition many scientists say is caused by head trauma") after he mentioned that on The Ticket last week. This is old news. One year ago D Magazine had a feature article entitled, Tony Dorsett Is Losing His Mind.
- Anyone remember that the legislature passed a No Texting While Driving bill in 2011 but it was vetoed by Rick Perry because it was too much big government?
