- After living through the Dave Campo era with three 5-11 seasons, I always considered a sixth win by the Cowboys a successful season. It’s gotten that bad.
- I remember in the early 90’s when the Cowboys had trouble selling out Texas Stadium and I think Kroger use to jump in and buy the remaining tickets for the public so the game can be televised locally.
- If you are interested in bidding for a piece of Texas Stadium, here you go. Everything, and I mean everything is up for sale.
- I found a new TV show Sunday night that might rank 9 out of 10 on the unintentional comedy scale. It’s basically a dance-off competition that at first I thought was an SNL or In Living Color Skit. There’s more about the show here along with a video.
- I watched a JFK special on PBS last night and forgot that Jim Lehrer use to work for the Dallas Times Herald. I think it’s interesting that both he and Bob Schieffer (a Fort Worth Star Telegram product) have moderated presidential debates in the last two elections, maybe more, but that’s what I remember. Not bad for a couple of good ‘ol boys.
- From reading this article, I learned that Obama will be giving up his Blackberry, why presidents don’t email, and that he will most likely be the first president with a laptop.
- You know the end of a presidency is near when there’s pardon talk.
- Focus on the Family will have layoffs. Link
- An Etch-A-Sketch that draws out the time and erases itself. Link
- I Voted for Two – there’s more than one way to interpret that photo.
- Ten Cars That Sank Detroit. Link
- Ten Cars That Could Salvage Detroit. Link
- If you are a fan of the CBS sitcom The Big Bang Theory, you might like Sheldon Shirts.

I was not aware . . .
That there are plenty of mens clothes at the Oprah store.
If you are a woman that just can’t break up with your boyfriend, buying one of these Harpo Studio shirts just might do the trick. But then again, it would make a great gag gift.
And if you are a mother of a newborn, you can annoy your husband by dressing your child (especially a boy) up in Oprah baby gear complete with the O logo.
Oh, and if I ever come home and DogGeeding is dressed in one of these, WifeGeeding will have some explaining to do.

1984 USSR Bunker Theme Park
25 kilometres away from Vilnius, 5 meters below the ground, and you find yourself in the USSR. Here you can avail of the opportunity to be transferred to the past and become a citizen of a totalitarian state. Upon arrival you will be met by guards with dogs. Having waved goodbye to your belongings, currency, cameras and mobile phones, you will put on a Soviet threadbare coat and dive into the life of a USSR citizen, full of tension and social peculiarities. You’ll be taken to the maze, watch TV shows and shops of 1984, be interrogated in a KGB office, learn the anthem of the USSR and get used to wearing a gas mask. You’ll dance to the music of those times and will make a Soviet dinner yourself. Leaving the bunker you will receive a special certificate and a unique present from the Soviet times.
