In Case You Don't Know It

Burnt Orange Nation is the best site I have found for rational, family friendly (I think) Longhorn fun.

Also, despite his slowish, flu-induced start, Colt is still in decent position for the Torreta, I mean, Heisman Trophy. They can keep it, that thing is just nothing more than a sure-fire way to lose your bowl game...at least, it is if you play for OU.

Two Years

My wife Jessica and I got married two years ago today...I love you, Babe.

Okay, sap time is over.

Football Player Beats Up Girl

It's not what you are thinking. Mississippi St football commit saves fellow students lives from a gun-wielding high school student.

It Doesn't Always Pay To Do The Right Thing

This kind of speaks for itself. Randalls is shooting themselves in the foot.

End Modern Day Slavery?

John Ramsey, my friend and fellow Christian/comedian (the similarities end there, he actually has "credentials" and a "future in comedy"), has an interesting campaign going on.

Standup

Did a couple of sets at the Velveeta Room last Friday. It was a "guest" set. Basically, a guest set is an unbilled spot in the show. I like them because I don't have to commit for both weekend nights and I can book them at the last minute since the manager Dana is always good to me. They pay a token amount: $5 for both shows, but that's an afterthought. Anyway, I'm about to leave and I'm getting paid my $5 and my friend (and the headliner), Mario Digiorgio, says "And worth every bit".

Jerk.

Reading

Just got done with The Given Day by Dennis Lehane, the writer of Gone, Baby, Gone (good) and Mystic River (not so good). It's his first non-detective novel and it's set in the backdrop of the 1919 Boston police strike. I liked it.
