Bag of Randomness

  • OMG – The city of Dallas doesn’t believe in Easter!
  • Someone on the radio mentioned that David Letterman is in the top five of most recognizable celebrities, and that got me to thinking . . . who else would make that list other than the president?  Who would children, the elderly, all ethnic groups, nerds, jocks, bacon loving marathon runners and everyone else most recognize.  I think Letterman, Leno, Oprah, and Michael Jordon fit the bill.
  • A middle school teacher was drunk and started to dance in front of her students.  If that was bad enough, a lot of the students recorded the act with their cell phones.  Article with Video
  • The title of this article and the officer’s name is a bit funny.
  • I find the website for the Dallas Morning News to be quite disappointing.
  • I’m not a fan of HOA’s, in particular my HOA.  Because of the refinance, the title company needs a form from the HOA, but the HOA will not start on the form until I complete the form with payment.  I call the HOA to start the process and end up being told by a recording to go to the website.  I was thinking, sweet, it’s on the web, I’ll get this done in no time – only to learn that I have to print the form out and mail it in with a check.  I guess they are still stuck in 1999.
  • I can’t recall the last time I ate bacon.  I bet it’s been over a month.
  • Whadoyouknow . . . Winnie Cooper got married
  • I really enjoy reading George Stephanopoulos’ tweets – for instance I learned that Obama has a new teleprompter is now just a large single screen in front of him and that Univision got to answer a question right after all the big networks and before all the other cable stations.
  • He also stated that there wasn’t one question over Iraq or Afganistan during the whole press conference.
  • Lance Armstrong is also fun to follow on Twitter.
  • I also follow Shaq, but too many people reply to him, but he does post interesting pictures.
  • That last sentence had two buts – hehe.
  • I read an interesting article how the new administration is seeing that newspapers are no longer the big medium it use to be to get out a message and how they are now focusing on radio and and web venues.  Interesting.
  • I fear writing about Obama.  I’m afraid if I say something positive, there will be a lot of negative reactions or people will just say that I can’t see any wrong in the guy because I’m a liberal.  If I write something negative, people will just tell me how stupid I am because I voted for the guy.  For the most part, should I say something, I’ll try to make up substantive.
  • Before he was famous – Michael Emerson (also known as Ben from Lost stars as a psychiatrist for troubled inmates in this educational film from the Federal Bureau of Prisons – his first appearance is around the 6:10 mark.
  • Christian valedictoran case headed for the Supreme Court Article
  • DirecTV’s RedZone channel will be offered to non-DirecTV customers  Article
  • Anteater drinks wine YouTube
  • It’s kinda like a doggie diaper
  • There are lots of geckos running around GeedingManor as of late.
  • How the heck did bacon lose the tournament?!?!?!?
