- I mowed the lawn yesterday even though it really didn’t need it in anticipation for rain, so that means it probably won’t rain in the 75067. Funny thing, but my hometown ZIP code is 76067, just one digit off.
- I dare say, chivalry is not dead.

- On The TICKET, Norm interviewed a Texas Tech tight end that is expected to be drafted in the first two rounds. The prospect stated he was going to be in a suite at the Spurs game during the draft when his name is called. That sounds kinda neat, but if I’m investing millions in a player, I think I’d want him to take his career a bit more seriously and know his primary focus is football, especially on the day he actually turns professional. You can always go out an party later. Heck, I’d feel more comfortable if he was out fishing with his father carrying his cell phone. I guess I’m more Parcells like. He said when he would meet with a potential draftee, he’d ask him what are the three most important things in his life. If football or something football related wasn’t in the top three, he wouldn’t draft him.
- I Luv me some Southwest Airlines, but I also love the idea of Virgin America flying out of Love Field because the competition benefits the customer. Southwest is rich in history of coming up with the best stuff when being threatened, and since they are being threatened on their home turf, this battle is going to be entertaining. Part of me thinks it’s a bit suspect that Sir Richard Branson is interested in ‘only’ two gates at Love Field, it makes me wonder if his is part of some long term plan.
- Speaking of entertaining battles, the race between David Dewhurst and Dan Patrick for Lt. Governor is even better if you don’t care about the race. As crazy-dramatic the Dewhurst spots are, I always get a kick out of the screaming eagle sound at the end of a Dan Patrick commercial, at least most of them. But Dewhurst is getting desperate with spots like these. If he has to resort to that as opposed to his more than a decade record, you’re in deep poo-poo. And I noticed that Patrick came back with a spot addressing the allegations complete with a Ronald Reagan appearance which will fire up the base.
- Lynne Cheney is suggesting or brought up the thought that the Clintons are behind the new Monica Lewinsky Vanity Fair article so that she wouldn’t be a distraction for a Hillary run in 2014. Random prediction: Dick Cheney outlives Lynne.
- There was a lot of buzz about Kevin Durant’s MVP speech. It was great, and the most touching part was when he told his mother, “You’re the real MVP.” Dang, talk about a great Mother’s Day present.

- Nielsen: Despite 100-plus TV channels, we watch just 17 – That made me want to count the primary channels we watch as a family, and I cam to 17 – CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX, HBO, Comedy Central, FX, AMC, Discovery, ESPN, Fox Sports Southwest, Sprout (not by choice), Disney (also not by choice), NFL Network, DIY, FoodNetwork, History
- Some guy was really adamant that a woman farted at a Mexican restaurant in Irving.
