Prediction – In the next ten years, the Super Bowl halftime show will be a WWE wrestling match.
The NFL Network is airing ‘A Football Life: Lawrence Taylor’ tonight, which I think is definitely worth rolling tape on.
I’ve always wondered how the media decide what picture to use of a person. For instance, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s accuser. The only picture of her floating around is a somewhat off focus one of her wearing sunglasses which makes it look like a vacation photo. She’s a college professor, surely there’s a better picture of her around, something more professional looking. Especially in today’s world with social media and such, I’m sure there’s a better existing picture.
Does everyone get spam/scam calls? For instance, do “important” people like the Secretary of State, Generals running NORAD, or Tony Danza get such calls?

Meet The Man Who Lives At The Bottom Of The Grand Canyon – Sjors Horstman Has Spent The Last 30 Years Of His Life At The Bottom Of The Grand CanyonAs A Volunteer For The National Park Service—one Of The Longest-serving Volunteers In NPS History.
Why, yes it was. Yesterday’s Bag of Randomness did indeed display a picture of the bowling alley in Mineral Wells. I was surprised some of you recognized it. I got a kick out the comment that the background gave a shoutout to that former D.A. in Wise County. If memory serves correct, that DQ used to be a KFC, that old classic structure they used to have.
It’s an old video, but it’s the first time I noticed how the catcher was uncertain about the ball.
There should be a SiriusXM channel that plays nothing but music from ‘Breaking Bad’ and ‘Better Call Saul’. Better yet, make it AMC centric and include the music from ‘Mad Men’.
This guy’s Nest doorbell wouldn’t unlock for him because it thought he was Batman.
“The Secretary has underscored the need for appropriate use of commas in his paper (both their inclusion and omission),” the email declares. It also notes that Pompeo prefers adherence to the Chicago Manual of Style, which states “effective use of the comma involves good judgment, with the goal being ease of reading.“

Mr. Rogers vs. the Superheroes – One of the few things that could raise anger — real, intense anger — in Mister Rogers was the willful misleading of children. Superheroes, he thought, were the worst culprits.

I should not have watched the Emmys. My time would have been better spent watching ‘Better Call Saul’ and ‘Elementary’. The former was solid as always, but the latter, a season and perhaps series finale, was much better than expected. Usually, those CBS shows have a pretty soft storyline, very formulaic, but I felt that episode one of the best of the series. I like the series because I like Sherlock Holmes stuff, and have put up with more stories than I’d like to admit which lacked any sizzle, but this one exceeded expectations.
Take some notes, Pastor Jeffress – [Article] – George Mason, a prominent and longtime senior pastor at Wilshire Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas, challenged white Christians on Sunday to help seek justice for Botham Shem Jean, the black man who was shot dead in his home by Dallas police officer Amber Guyger.
Here are the key findings: Ticketmaster doesn’t list every seat when a sale begins. Hikes prices mid-sale. Collects fees twice on tickets scalped on its site.
Cruz has this one in the bag. If for any reason it’s one I stated many times – conservatives show up to vote, liberals are vocal but stay at home.
Elizabeth Smart was recently interviewed on ‘CBS This Morning’. I think she speaks in a very Jackie Kennedy sort of way, and that is no way meant as an insult. It’s soft, slow and measured, very articulate, and with a bit of breathlessness. I’m pretty sure I’m the only person who thinks this.
“Every single time off camera, he gave the exact same performance as you’re seeing now,” Reiner told Ogunnaike as they watched the scene. “We did it five, six, seven times, and I kept saying, ‘Jack, why don’t you save a little bit for when we come around?’ He said (impersonating Nicholson), ‘You don’t understand Rob, I love to act. And I don’t get that much of a chance with great parts like this.’ It was exactly the same performance.“
Raising Arizona has been on my “To Watch” list for the longest time.
The rarest fabric on Earth – The once-endangered vicuna is thriving in the Peruvian Andes, thanks to a bold plan to sustainably gather and sell its valuable fleece – and give locals a stake in its survival.
I think when it comes to Eric Clapton, most people favor “Layla” or “Wonderful Tonight”. I think “Change The World” is under-rated, not a big fan of “My Father’s Eyes”, but I’m a sucker for “Tears In Heaven”. The lyrics are inspired by the death of his four-year-old son who fell from an apartment window 49-stories up. With that in mind, this line about entering Heaven and seeing your child and wondering if he will even remember you chokes me up.
Would you know my name, If I saw you in heaven?
