Random Thursday Morning Thoughts



  • Wow. Former Fox News head and disgraced Roger Ailes has died
  • Wow Part 2: There may have been a Road Rage shooting in Richardson during rush hour this morning off of Central. Remember that I told you about the Sardine Theory the other day. 
  • I've never seen allergy "season" last for months like this. 
  • There's an unusual amount of coverage about a 14 year old girl from Forney killed after accidentally being run/ran over by a softball teammate. I only say "unusual" because there are tragedies like that every day which the media never mentions.
  • "Black hole sun. Won't you come. And wash away the rain." If you know those lyrics, you'll be  sad to learn that the singer of those lines died overnight
  • Mrs. LL has has a "one eye problem" which causes her to wear an eye patch every now and then. I make pirate jokes. She, in return, is not pleased.
  • "Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein has appointed former FBI Director Robert Mueller to serve as special counsel to oversee the previously confirmed FBI investigation of Russian efforts to influence the 2016 presidential election and related matters." Finally!
  • When Trump doesn't tweet in the early morning hours it makes me think he's in a fetal position in depression.
  • And just as I wrote the above bullet point, this happened. Incredible: 
    Whataboutism!
  • And you guys dog me for not being able to spell. 
  • But wait, there's more! 
  • I'd pay money to see a Live Cam of Sean Spicer right now. 
  • At 7:30 this morning, Fox News' Dan Godwin expressed confusion as to why golfers at the Byron Nelson weren't on the 17th fairway. 
  • My Found Dog Problem yesterday was weird. I stayed home to take care of Mrs. LL so, since I had the time, I just hooked the Big Dog I found up to a tree in the front yard hoping the owner would come by. I took a seat and waited. The guy showed up within 10 minutes. Mrs. LL told me my idea was dumb and could not believe it worked. I agree. 
  • BagOfNothing once again advocates for Trump to Wag The Dog. The scary part is that I think he'll do it.
