Every Thursday we like to post a picture of a plastic fork. We’re big fans of disposable cutlery and feel it deserves more media coverage. Sorry I didn’t have time to crop the photo. In a hurry.
Fox 4 had a rough week of broadcasting. One of their newscasts began with a minute and a half of color bars. I don’t know if they had a new technical director or what, but I do know that the on air guys are the ones left to take it in the shorts.
My favorite quote from Eager- “Hi. I’m on camera, but I’m not sure what you want me to talk about.”
This footage amazes me. In the 70′s, Channel 8 created a little television by clogging up a highway with speed limit-driving actors. Everyone predictably gets mad and risks his life to get around the rolling blockade. There’s even some Smoky and The Bandit type CB action. I can’t imagine a news station doing this stunt in today’s litigious society. The glory days of Anchorman.
Woman love to eat this. How could George be against such a beautiful act?
Troy Aikman wants to fight suspected gay man.
Fight Night footage found here.
I never thought I’d ask this, but what the hell is going on with Sinead O’Connor? She’s sex-starved and wants a man who will do the unconventional. But would he want to?

Nothing says early aughts like the tramp stamp. Why women ever thought this was a good look for their beer shelf is beyond me. I guess some men find it attractive. To them, a tramp stamp says “I’m easy.” To me it says “Free hepatitis.” But I’m not against a woman having one, just err on the side of caution and ONLY get one of the following designs.
Oh my. Sometimes desperation paints a colorful picture. Dallas Police want your help in finding this dude. He robbed a Lemmon Avenue Exxon Tigermart on August 16, 2011 at 5:25 AM.
Look at the video. He enters the store wearing white go-go boots and a dress. In the biggest give up known to man, his face is covered with underwear. He is holding what could possibly be a gun under the tasteful floral print dress. He’s is described as a white male (they’re the worst), 5’05″ and weighing 145 lbs.
Find him, shake his hand, then call cops.
As I do from time to time (only once), I like to gather up links I’ve posted on my Twitter and post them here. Enjoy. Think. Love.

I watch your glass hydroplane across the table and prepare to give you the greatest news of your life. “My friend, you can come shoot sporting clays with me next Friday.”
You begin to cry as you win the lottery and busty women gather to sing your praises. Santa winks at you. The end.
Wanna shoot guns with me? You’re in luck, because my Big Charity Clay Shoot benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters is next Friday, August 19th. Shooting clays is one of life’s great pleasures and can be damn addicting. The Musers will be broadcasting live, providing handcrafted radio candy. We’ll also provide lunch, prizes, and shotgun shells. All you have to do is bring yourself, your shotgun, and maybe a friend or two. Some people bring their wives and children. Perfect. If you don’t have a shotgun you can rent one from our host, Elm Fork.
Register at bigclayshoot.com. The price is reasonable and supports a cause close to my heart, mentoring disadvantaged kids and introducing them to the outdoors. This is a beautiful world and it’s a shame that some kids have never held a fishing pole or seen a duck fly low over a smoky lake.
This is my 6th year hosting this incredible event. We’ve raised $500,000 for Big Brothers Big Sisters Outdoor Mentoring programs and you can help us raise more.

One of her quotes: “I love to farm and shoot guys and wreck cars. I’m a redneck and proud of it. I like milk and German engineering and causing mayhem with my siblings.”
That’s hot.
UPDATE: There are even some nude photos of her circulating.
UPDATE 2: Man, these are the mother lode. Especially this one.
I still love this theme song and intro style.

Meet Madeleine Pulver, the daughter of a wealthy Australian businessman. A man clamp a bomb around her neck and apparently wanted some handsome ransom. Creepy stuff. Story link below.
The story of Madeleine’s ordeal.
As we drove through the junk-selling Hill Country town of Fredericksburg yesterday, I spotted a tremendous hypnosis-inducer that turned my eyes into slot machine wheels. It was a store called “Phil Jackson’s Amazing World of Things.” WTF? Phil Jackson? THE Phil Jackson? He’s smart and Buddhist. Surely he would have come up something a little less generic than “Amazing World of Things,” right?
Still not as confusing as that place in Dallas that has a big stand alone sign of an ice cream cone out front that say “Eggroll Hut” or something.
