  • I always find it absolutely adorable when a dog uses his paws to hold a bone upright when chewing on it.
  • DaughterGeeding had her first trip to the dentist yesterday, it actually went quite well.
  • West Nile has been confirmed on my block so the city sprayed the neighborhood last night.
  • For some reason former KDFW sportscaster Paul Crane popped in my mind recently.  I remember him leaving the station of CNN.  He’s now working for a Shreveport station.  The last segment I can recall him doing for KDFW was being part of a fantasy camp in which he got to face Nolan Ryan pitching to him at Rangers spring training Port Charlotte, Florida.
  • My Verizon Fios install is scheduled for tomorrow but yesterday a crew came by to bury the fiber-optic cable.  It turns out that four houses end up sharing a connection.
  • I recorded a special on Discovery that interviews or profiles all the Chiefs of Staffs since LBJ which I think will be pretty interesting.  I got to meet Hamilton Jordan once when he spoke at HSU and he talked about wearing a disguise .
  • WifeGeeding and the kids are going to East Texas to visit family and I’m throwing the sickest party at GeedingManor.  Or I might just veg out and embrace the peace and quiet around me, and I’ll probably tell peace and quiet how much I missed them and why they don’t visit more often.
  • WifeGeeding is obsessed or jealous of what God gave Tammy Dombeck.  In Dombeck’s latest commercial for a car show, WifeGeeding thinks the overhead camera shot is used solely to accentuate her top.  I told her that the camera shot was used because it’s the best way to showcase the cars and she rolled her only good eye at me.
  • I actually somewhat knew Tammy Dombeck because I use to work with her college roommate and we’d email back and forth occasionally with funny stories of said roommate and whatnot.  To WifeGeeding’s chagrin, I have a autograph headshot of her hanging in the garage.
  • I don’t like how the C and V buttons are so close together, because sometimes when I’m trying to copy and paste something, I end up accidentally copying twice by fatfingering.
  • I think George Zimmerman has been in the headlines for something at least every month this year.  Here’s hoping October is Zimmerman free.
  • Ari Fleischer was the Press Secretary under President George W. Bush during 9/11/2001.  Yesterday he tweeted the events as it happened that day and what he and the President were doing. It was quite interesting.  I had to look up the DEFCON levels, and he stated that current (and possibly worst Press Secretary of all time) Jay Carney was in the press corp at the time and at one point he and eight others traveling with the President had to be left behind in Louisiana, which really ticked him off.  I’d love to hear hear his take on behing left half a country away from home and all air travel suspended.  I’m assuming he used the company card to rent a car to drive back home, but then again, I’m sure most rental cars were in use due to the cancelation of air travel.  Also, in anotoher tweet, Christians will appreciate the “I hope I read my Bible” quote.
  • Considering the 9/11 hijack took off from Boston, it wasn’t the smartest decision to hold a drill with smoke and flames at that airport the 9/11 anniversary.
  • A funnier than expected White House parody website.
  • The right is really pump up about that recall election in Colorado.
  • Sen. Ted Cruz: ‘We Need A Hundred More Like Jesse Helms’ In Senate
  • An app for Google Glass that enhances an in-game experience – YouTube
  • Vanilla Ice To Perform At Houston Texans’ Opener
  • Andy Stanley drives a Audi, the Pope’s new ride is a 1984 Renault 4 with 186,000 miles on it.
  • Florida Pastor Arrested While Towing 2998 Kerosene-Soaked Qurans
  • This is what should have happened during the Walt and Jessie confrontation.
  • There’s going to be a bit of a prequel to ‘Breaking Bad’ and it will focus on Saul Goodman.  His spinoff has been greenlit and the working title is genius, ‘Better Call Saul’.  The actor was actually on ‘The Daily Show’ last night, and I had no idea that BetterCallSaul.com was a functioning website.
  • Wall Street Journal – Should You Bring Mom and Dad to the Office?

    Really looking forward to Better Call Saul. That should be a riot.

    I've never met Tammy Dombeck, but I've heard she's a really good singer and a lot more "carefree" on stage than her TV persona.
