- Commas are important.
- Our taxes are ready to file, well, almost. Our brokerage firm states out tax statements won’t be available until Feb 16, so I have to wait a few more days before I can mark that off the “to do” list.m
- I’m not sure if I mentioned this or not, it could be the Ambien talking, but when I was out shopping for gray tile grout, I came across the color Delorean Gray. As a child of the Eighties and a fan of the Back to the Future series, I ask you, how the hell can I pass that up?
- Scraping linoleum and glue residue off the floor will you a decent workout. I tried about three different methods but ended up relying on elbow grease for the most part. In doing so, I found some old cigarette buds under the wall and where the baseboards used to be.
- I used to think the pattern or style of the baseboard had to match the door trim, but I’m finding out that’s not the case.
- We have an extra fridge in the garage and I decided to clean it out yesterday. There were about six Shiners and four Heinekens that’s been in there for about two years. I opened and pour down the drain and I’d be lying if I didn’t feel like Elliot Ness.
- In reference to the Exxxotica convention that the Dallas City Council has banned, I find it odd that our local news outlets use the word “porn” instead of “pornography”. “Porn” sounds like something a thirteen-year-old boy would use, but perhaps it’s now mainstream. Also, when CBS11 reported the story, the anchor tried to state that the organizers were trying to book the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center, but instead said the organizers were “trying to book Kay Bailey Hutchison” which would definitely put a new twist on the story.
- Speaking of “porn”, I had a childhood friend whose last four digits of his phone number spelled out the word.
- The new season of ‘Better Call Saul’ starts on Monday and ‘The Walking Dead’ resumes its season this Sunday.

- Words from a Maryland university president who’s accused of trying to weed out struggling students, “This is hard for you because you think of the students as cuddly bunnies. But you can’t. You just have to drown the bunnies … put a Glock to their heads.“
- Entertainment Television – Forget the Big Hair, It’s Big Drama When ‘The Real Housewives of Dallas’ Premieres on Bravo—Meet the Cast
- Couldn’t wait until Valentine’s Day – Female tiger from California’s Sacramento Zoo died Wednesday after a male tiger attacked her in a mating attempt gone horribly wrong.
- Anne Hathaway reminds me of Barbara Feldon, aka, Agent 99, who will turn 83 a month from today. Feldon’s last credited work on IMDB is from 2006, but Wikipedia states she’s not interesting in performing but will make a rare off-Broadway appearance. Per this Daily Mail article in October, it states her favorite deli in NYC always gives her the same order number, 99.

- I like my toast either an 7 or 15.
- I’ve really got to stop taking Ambien and then getting online. Every other day I get a surprise package in the mail, and it turns out to be something I ordered a bit after bedtime with no memory of doing so.
- With the exception of Senator Marco Rubio, I’m quite certain I can beat all of them in a 40-yard or 100-yard dash.
- I like both ‘Modern Family’ and ‘Life in Pieces’, but for now, I’ll take the latter. It comes on tonight on CBS if you are interested. And as much as I like ‘Modern Family’, they have the worst little children actors.
- My current hometown news – Stolen Hedgehog Returned, Home Safe and Sound – It’s one thing to steal a hedgehog, but returning it in a plastic bag kinda sounds scary.
- President Obama is officially tired of selfies – Obama noted how the selfie has tainted campaign trail traditions like shaking hands and kissing babies. – If I was a candidate, I’d prefer the selfie over the chance of spreading germs, but then again, I’m a germaphobe.
- Two Would-Be American Airlines Passengers Allegedly Tried to Sneak Razors Past Security at LaGuardia – That’s an interesting picture of a straight-blade razor embedded in the inside sole of the shoe.

- Here’s an interesting story of NASA Administrator Charles Bolden, the first black person to hold the position. Some highlights:
- Bolden was a South Carolina kid who wanted to go to the Naval Academy, but his state representatives wouldn’t nominate him, Strom Thurman flat out told him no way.
- But he had a backup plan. As a junior in high school, he was in correspondence with Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson. Everyone was/is eligible for a nomination from the vice president, but only children of armed forces personnel are eligible for a presidential nomination. JFK was killed when he was a senior in high school and LBJ became president, which threw a wrench in his backup plan. However, he wrote the new president a letter, stated that he understood he would not be eligible for a presidential nomination, and asked if he could be referred to someone who could consider the nomination.
- He served in the Marine Corps as an aviator, flying more than 100 combat missions in North and South Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia.
- He became a NASA astronaut and traveled to orbit four times aboard the space shuttle. After his last space flight, he returned to the Marine Corps and achieved the rank of major general.
