Bag of Randomness

  • There’s a Wal-Mart Super Center across the street from the new Dallas Cowboys stadium.  I wonder how they are going to control that parking lot on game days.
  • I like the new improvements at the Cotton Bowl, $57 million worth, but too little too late as that should be home to the Cowboys.  Since a lot of the seats have been replaced, I’m going to miss the old blue and white color scheme.  I’m also a little surprised that it is now the ninth largest stadium in the country, of course, with out luxury suites.
  • I don’t think Tony Dorsett ages.
  • Great idea . . . an anti-theft lunch bag.
  • In retrospect, I think the ESPN Monday Night Football crew should have showed some most memorable high lights of past MNF performances at Texas Stadium.
  • I think if you want to be an informed voter, it’s important to check out FactCheck.org from time to time.
  • You know times are tough when the Fed chariman says, “We lost control.”
  • I wonder if some churches will now be offended if a Ray Boltz song is used in any church related activity.  I can certainly imagine someone making a tribute video to honor someone in church with his song “Thank You” being played.
  • Dakota Fanning is growing up.
  • What did Cookie Monster ever do to her?
  • I found out that another Southwest blog-o-spondent contestant got the same deal as I did, but she will be filming things from a mother’s perspective.  I all of a sudden don’t feel as special.
  • I read in a few articles that Sarah Palin has dressed up like Tina Few for Halloween before.  I understand how someone can dress up like Palin and do a characterize of her, but I dont see how someone can dress up like Tina Fey.  If it’s just a matter of wearing glasses nad having brown hair, then WifeGeeding is doing a good job.
  • Looks like the U2 album won’t drop until next year, per this article from the band’s website.  That’s why I didn’t get my hopes up when I heard about the Nov 18th drop date from non-confirmed sources.
  • That article also mentioned that a lot of the new album is recorded outdoors: 
    He [Bono] also mentions that the recording in Morocco was the first time the band have worked in a studio open to the sky: ‘On that track you can hear the sound of a swallows nest close to the building – it’s beautiful.’
  • Random question at work the other day, what is the earliest social event you remember.  That is, something news worthy or that the nation as a whole took part in.  Mine was either Reagan being shot or watching Popeye.
  • I don’t know why Hummers getting keyed in Southlake makes the news.  Although I did find it interesting that the high schooler’s hummer and his parent’s Hummer were keyed.
  • Tool libraries are a great idea.
  • I remember one time during PE in the fourth grade I was picked as soccer captain to select memebers of my team.  I had the very first choice, and rather than pick the fastest or most athletic classmate, I picked the fattest person among us who happened to be a girl to be our goalie.  At the time, I thought it was a pretty stategic move, and I remember her grumbling saying that I only picked her because she was fat and me trying to say that I didn’t even though that was the truth.   I chuckle at that moment now, but I also realize how hard it must have been for her.  I wish I could apologize.
  • If you need a timewaster, just try Unnecessary Knowledge and keep hitting your refresh button.
  • When we are watching TV in the livingroom, OtherDogGeeding will go to the laundry room where his food is located, grab a mouthful, walk back to the livingroom and empty his mouth.  He will then eat in front of the TV.  He repeats this process about three to four times.
