Bag of Randomness

  • I’m thankful tragic events which happened in Boston yesterday doesn’t happen often, but I’m surprised they don’t happen more often in these days and times.  And these sort of things get your attention more and more either the older you get or when you start a family.
  • When such an event happens, I wonder if the local news stays on the air or if everything just goes to national coverage in the area.
  • Google did a really great public service by creating a webpage to help track down people in Boston yesterday.
  • There are some truly horrific images made available online after the bombing, and I was tempted to provide a link to them, but after some thought it wouldn’t be respectful to the victims.  But if you really want to find them, they aren’t that hard to find.
  • One image that did stick with me was seeing men in fatigues, I’m guessing they were part of the National Guard helping with the event, step right into rescue and assistance mode the second things happened.
  • ’60 Minutes’ had a segment about Marfa, TX.  There was a part of me that just wanted to pack the wife and kids and hop in the car and escape back to small town Texas immediately.  But with most things, after a few days I’d probably be driven crazy.
  • I read that North Texas was going to have a great bluebonnet season, but so far I ain’t seeing it.
  • There is something really beautiful and majestic about a West Texas sunset.
  • The more ads I hear from the former George DeJohn on The TICKET the more skeptical I become.
  • The Dallas Morning News talked to former President George W. Bush about his paintings, he said, “People are surprised. Of course, some people are surprised I can even read.”
  • Perry Announces Chicago Ad Buy Touting Texas
  • Not a joke – Starbucks, Wal-Mart offering classes – for college credit
  • A cool device in which people can leave a dollar tip.
  • Pigeon held in India on suspicion of spying for Pakistan
  • Today is no shoe day
