Random Wednesday Morning Thoughts




It never had a chance. The company would file for bankruptcy protection in February of 2015.


  • You thought I was crazy when I wrote about concentration camps? Get ready.


  • Should we be worried?



    • Flashback: Nothing to worry about. Trump promised us he will have the war ended "in 24 hours."

  • The clown car of appointments continues. 


    • And these people are going to end up in those positions one way or another

  • Wait a second. DFW broke ground on a new terminal yesterday, Terminal F, but you can't enter it directly? You have to check in, check your bags, and go through security at Terminal E -- across the highway -- and take Skylink to Terminal F? 



  • Trump was convicted on 34 counts but now the DA says, "We can just hold off sentencing for at least four years." Everyone is running scared. 

  • Wise County new state rep wants to give the death penalty to sex offenders. This is so dumb that there is not a prosecutor in Texas who would support it.  Most notably because the conviction rates would plummet to next to nothing. (Not to mention it is clearly unconstitutional.)

  • I loved this guy in the 1980s because he seemed to be one of the few who really understood Christianity -- or at least how I understood it. And there's not a Baptist out there who didn't get enthralled with his, "It's Friday, but Sunday's coming" sermon. And his "Party With Prostitutes" (video) speech is a favorite.


  • This seems like a big deal. (Free link.) And I'm guessing it is not good news for MSNBC and CNBC.

    • And Morning Joe is on MSNBC. This is an update from yesterday which, if true, is really disturbing.   I'm not sure there will be anyone left to challenge the State under Trump. 

  • This is quite the graphic from Monday night:

  • Here's a mind-blowing odd fact involving the Evil Empire: When Kentucky plays in Austin on Saturday, it will equal the farthest west that the Wildcats have ever played a football game. (They also played in Austin 73 years ago.) I didn't believe that when I first saw it.
