A lot of my close friends are getting new cars, and I have to admit I’m a little jealous. But while they are driving around DFW with their new fancy hands free controls and impressive gas mileage I’ll be home admiring my retaining wall and standing on top of my new dirt.
There’s a house in our neighborhood that’s been flying a flag with the Olympics rings on them since the Winter Games started. I know Olympic bronze medalist Kim Zmeskal lives in our neighborhood so I thought it was her house, but after some research, she lives in another casa one street over.
I put my name in the hat to get some Conan tickets for his Dallas visit, other than the cast of ‘Dallas’ and Mark Cuban, I wonder who’ll his guests will be. Since Jamie Foxx considers himself from Dallas, he’s a maybe.
When my father died an Army honor guard helped dress him for his funeral and of course served as pallbearers and gave him the customary three gun salute. I can still recall the honor and pride they took in their actions and in their conversations with me, so it broke my heart to hear how the Wisconsin National Guard was acting.

I’m not sure a lot of the younger demographic caught the nod to Carson on last night’s ‘Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon’ between Fallon and Jerry Seinfeld.

Back in the day, Carson only did that to standups he really enjoyed, and after they got to sit down, their career skyrocketed.
Last night on ‘The Daily Show’ Kevin Spacey basically said politicians are performance artists, you can’t believe them, what they say, that they aren’t being sincere, and most are bad actors. I’d agree.
From what I read of the kiss-cam thing, those were coworkers, and the guy had been worried for a week that they'd get put on the kiss cam and so had made a sign to defuse the situation. One of the camera crew guys posted on Reddit that it was not staged at all. [And you're welcome — when I saw the Chip's story, I thought of you.]
