- I had my third steroid epidural on Wednesday. Before I was given anesthesia, the nurse asked who was driving me home. I said, “My mother….oh, I’m sorry, I mean, my wife.” The nurse laughed a little and told me that I said the exact same thing the previous two times. My mother has been dead eleven years and I can’t recall her ever driving me home for anything health related in my teen or adult years. I have no idea why I would say such a thing unless I miss her more than I thought.
- The bat-signal shone over L.A. in honor of Adam West. That’s pretty darn cool. When I was a child, I used to try to make my own with a flashlight but it never looked very good.
I have no issue with Megyn Kelly interviewing Alex Jones. But I think it was a horrible idea for her to pose for a smug picture with him. It can perceive as an endorsement and looks unprofessional.- No spoilers – If you watched Season 5 Episode 8 of ‘House of Cards’ and was curious about “Elysian Fields”, then you should check out this Wiki page on Bohemian Grove.
- Earlier this week, the Battleship Texas had a huge hole, but no loose lips were found so it didn’t sink – Crews found a 6 by 8 inch hole about 15 feet below the water line that was patched up at about 5:30 a.m. Monday.
- Sometimes I go through life and something will happen or I find a great comparison to such and such and I think it would make a great sermon topic. For instance, I was walking the dog and wondering if he had any idea that I only give him just enough leash he could handle if he could see out far ahead as I could of any potential dangers that lie ahead, and how I sometimes have to yank him back for his own safety even though he looks confused as all get out.
- The San Saba football stadium was built on a graveyard.
- The team volunteered to help families move the tombstones dating back to the 1860′s to a cemetery being developed at the edge of town. The players admitted they were more interested in getting the property ready for a new football field and didn’t make sure all the tombstones and corpses were moved. During various construction projects over the years, a number of tombstones have been unearthed and after heavy rains, bones have risen to the top of the soil.
- The older I get, the more I think burial is just a bad idea. After three generations, you are most likely forgotten. I doubt many can trace their family roots that far back by memory or even visit the graves of those three generations ago. It’s hard letting go of a loved one right after a death, but really, there’s no practical need to preserve a body and take up space in the ground. Many cemeteries are forgotten and unkept. Heck, DART recently found that out the hard way.
- A DART crew digging in east Plano last week accidentally unearthed the remains of a small child in the DART owned rail right-of-way near Davis Cemetery. Plano police believe the child died more than a hundred years ago and was buried without a headstone to mark the location in the historically black neighborhood.
