WifeGeeding has a friend who decided to try on her high school cheerleading uniform, the first in about 14 years since she graduated high school, and it appeared to be a perfect fit.
An acquaintance of WifeGeeding is abusing the service dog program just so her chihuahua can fly in cabin and uncaged with her and be accepted at her hotel. I may not be getting the full story, but it sounds like all she had to do was go online and fill out a form and pay $15o for a vest.
Local weatherman Pete Delkus has officially lost it with this tweet. I didn’t think it was possible for anyone to have a bigger ego than Mike Snyder. But there’s no competing with Dale Hansen of course, but he gets a pass in my book for some reason.
Some Longhorn fans were having a bit of a conniption on Saturday because the football team had metallic logo decals on their helmets which slightly broke with their traditional uniforms. Heck, I watched a quarter of the game and couldn’t tell a difference.
There’s been a radio format change in the area, 94.5 is now playing classic hip-hop, which means it’s about to be a preset on my car stereo.
SisterGeeding and her husband gave me a Squatty Potty for Christmas last year. On Friday, Buzzfeed had a video that was actually a disguised commercial for the product. On Friday night, the Squatty Potty was one of the pitched products on ‘Shark Tank’, and the creators (a man and his mom) mentioned that most are sold during the holidays for presents. All that to say, their marketing department aligned things pretty well while trying to look like they weren’t advertising.
SNL thoughts – (1.) Pretty solid and funny this week. (2.) I don’t think Michael Che has made it through a Weekend Update segment without fumbling his words at least once.
Just a reminder for my fellow U2 fans – It’s U2 week on ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon’. EDIT: Bono will need surgery on his arm after crashing his bicycle in Central Park, so the week long gig is cancelled. I kind of feel for Fallon’s staff, now they have to try to book a week’s worth of guests on extremely short notice.
Something only my fellow Ticket fans will understand – The great equalizer decided to pay me a visit this weekend.
My in-laws are big time Baylor supporters and this article helped me get an understanding of their concern during fundamentalist President Sloan’s era. Per the article, he created a center for intelligent design, which is no longer in existence. It also states that the biology department has a webpage with a statement about evolution. For the heck of it, I look up Hardin-Simmons’ biology department’s webpage and there’s no such statement. I do remember in one science class a few students arguing with the professor about evolution and how unreliable carbon dating was when evolution was brought up. And yes, I attended Hardin-Simmons, not ACU. Get it right, people!
I wasn’t aware that Baylor has required its professors to be Christian or Jewish. The Christian part wasn’t surprising, the Jewish part was.
Orange County (Florida) Public Schools has allowed religious groups to hand out Bibles at their schools for years, but now that the Satanic Temple also wants to hand out copies of “The Satanic Children’s Big Book of Activities”, they are now reconsidering the policy.
In Mandy Patinkin’s ’60 Minute’s’ interview, he stated that before every interview or big performance he recites the name of every person he’s known that has died. He credit’s this behavior to a line in ‘Carousel’ – “As long as there’s one person on Earth who remembers you, it isn’t over.”
MomGeeding died eight years ago today. In some ways it feel like yesterday, in other ways, it seems like twenty years ago.
I'll give Pete Delkus credit for going all in with his shtick. Of course, I have no respect for him as a professional and wouldn't watch him if you paid me to, but he clearly has an audience that wants that, so more power to him. Just glad I have the option to change the channel.
I thought SNL was pretty good, too. And I guess the producers/Lorne are fine with giving up at least 1 joke out of every Update segment, because you're spot on about Che. He's going to screw up at least one delivery per show. I think he and Jost are getting better, though, so hopefully he'll get better as he continues to get more comfortable.
I also thought it was funny in the monologue how Jennifer Lawrence messed up one of her lines so badly that she just gave up. Don't see that often.
Sucks for Bono, U2, its fans, and Fallon & his staff. There was a lot of time and energy spent hyping and preparing for this weeks' shows.
It's awesome how that woman interrupted those Muslim prayers and converted all those people into Christianity. Oh wait, that's not what happened?
I'll never drink coffee out of a vegetable. Ever.
Powerful thought from Mandy Patinkin. That's a good exercise – to honor your past in the present.
Of all the "Spamish" products, the only non-Spam one I've tried is Treet. Short of being shipwrecked with no other option for survival, it was not good. More of a vienna sausage type conglomeration of meat sweepings. At least Spam is 100% pork shoulder. To be honest, I love me some Spam. Hot, cold, baked, fried… mmm-mmm!
Michael Che is awful. He must be a great writer because people keep giving him high profile gigs, but he's just not good on camera. John Mulaney was supposed to get that slot then Lorne sold FOX on a sitcom around him. The sitcom is tanking and FOX has cut the series order. He'll be looking for work next season and I'm pretty sure there will be a vacancy at WU.
Not a Delkus fan. Never have been. Hate the guy on 5 for shoving Finfrock out, too.
Are you on Shaggybevo? If not, you should be. I see a lot of common interests.

Blessings to you today, my friend.

Pics, please.
Condolences to you on this somber day.
I listened to this speaker at IBC about intelligent design a few weeks ago. I found it to be quite fascinating http://www.irvingbible.org/media/view/message/int…
