  • The local news had a story about Texas Woman’s University being so overcrowded they turned a Holiday Inn into a dorm.  The same thing happened when I was in college and I was hired as the resident advisor of the Colonial Inn.  The perks of living there was free cable (no cable on campus at the time), a swimming pool outside our door, and unlike the dorms on campus, we could have girls over.  Somewhere out there is video of me being interviewed by a local news station.  I was also interviewed by the local paper and made the front page, but made a bad decision to do so in the pool with my shirt off after some urging from the reporter.
  • I grew another beard but shaved it all off last night.  When I walked out DaughterGeeding just laughed at me saying I look funny.
  • I’m really enjoying this Simpsons marathon.
  • 6 commercial jingles ’80s and ’90s Dallas kids will never forget –  My sister and I use to crack up at the honorable mention commercial.
  • I was alive during a time when it was fashionable to wear shorts over your sweatpants.
  • Junior Mints > Andes Mints> York Peppermint Patty
  • One of my readers sent me a pic of his new barbecue smoker.  I hate him in the most Christian way possible and jealous his grandfather was in the inaugural class of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.  Other than that, I love the guy.
  • It seems like Jim Kelly is always the runner up.  On the day it’s announced he’s cancer free the Ebola doctor is Ebola free.
  • No one will admit it, but there’s nothing like picking the perfect booger.
  • I get a small amount of satisfaction of hitting the Ctrl and Enter button simultaneous to send an email.
  • Jean-Claude Van Damme has a very attractive and fit daughter name Bianca Bree Van Damme that just took the ice bucket challenge sitting in a very provocative position – YouTube
  • I never understood the criticisms presidents in office get for playing golf.  Those guys need to unwind and recharge, and presidents of both parties have played plenty of golf, and I’m sure some have played more than others.  Obama has been getting a lot of heat for speaking about the beheading of U.S. journalist James Foley and then leaving, changing clothes, and then playing golf.  I think that’s a lot different than G.W. Bush speaking seriously about terrorism on a golf course and then telling the press to “watch this drive“.  I bet in retrospect Bush regretted ever saying that (and even speaking to the press while on the course) and that moment caused him to stop playing while in office.
  • This just seems weird – Here’s How The State Department Trolls Terrorists On Social Media
  • Until last week I’ve watched my neighbor’s dog and gerbil a total of five times when he’s been on vacation, and he’s paid me four of the five times.  The reason he didn’t pay me that one time was because he lost his wallet at a gas station on the way home.  He’s been back for five days now and hasn’t paid me for this latest watch, but I’m uncomfortable bringing the topic up with him.  I was really looking forward to using this money to buy a smoker and do some barbecuing.
  • Dang, the season finale of ‘Rectify’ sure did pull the curtain back on a lot of things and brought some intense drama.  I’m glad to hear it’s been picked up for another season.
  • Back To The Future aging with makeup vs reality
  • Did Skynet create this? – This Robot Draws A Life-Size Selfie Using Its Creator’s Blood
  • This is quite surprising, but they have been at it for a full decade. – Kari, Grant and Tory are leaving MythBusters – To be honest, it always bugged me hearing them all scream with over expressive facial reactions at every explosion.
  • The Chick-Fil-A sandwich I brought home last smelled like some kind of cleaning solution, and this was confirmed by WifeGeeding who has a supreme olfactory sense.  But it tasted so good I just continued to eat it.  If you don’t see any blog posts come Monday, blame my death on the sandwich and not my lack of willpower to put it down.

    I hate to see Tory, Grant and Kari leave. It's either a money thing or they are getting their own spinoff.

    I only pay children when they watch my pets. Adults; I just expect the favor to be reciprocated.
