Someone who shall not be named likes to dress up OtherDogGeedingII. It would be funny if either I or BoyGeeding could find a matching outfit.
To answer a question from yesterday – Yes, WifeGeeding has been to George’s in Waco but no, she has never had the Big O, she claims.
Sears did an odd thing, they stated they were going to report earnings before the market opened on Thursday but missed its own deadline and reported after the closing bell instead.

This ocean cam is affixed to the Frying Pan Tower, 34 miles off the coast of Cape Fear, North Carolina. The tower was built in the 1960s to warn ships of the shallow waters nearby. Though GPS navigation technology means this tower is no longer used for its original purpose, it’s an important ecosystem for marine wildlife (check out the underwater shark cam to see what we mean) and provides a beautiful view of the sun rising and setting over the Atlantic Ocean.
Windy.com also provides some cool interactive data and shows you the location of the cam in relation to the hurricane. This is from the time of this posting.

It’s my understanding Ted Cruz’s campaign has plenty of funds, so I’m surprised (though not complaining) at the lack of Ted Cruz television commercials. I haven’t seen a single one. I’m guessing the public will a plethora of them starting in October. Speaking of campaign funds, Beto O’Rourke was in New York for an appearance on Colbert’s show but also hosted a fundraiser in the city. Offhand, I’m not a big fan of out-of-state dollars influencing a state election.
Teens Are Protesting In-Class Presentations – Some students say having to speak in front of the class is an unreasonable burden for those with anxiety and are demanding alternative options.
For way too many years now, my brother and I (with the support of our awesome family and friends) have been working on a shot-for-shot recreation of Toy Story 3. This project has been an incredible undertaking, and we’ve made the decision to have this complete by 2019. At this time, I’m not quite sure what a release will look like, but I do know that this has to be done by next year. We’re both pursuing college and full-time careers right now, and it’s time to wrap this side-project up.
