Happy New Year!

Dallas Cowboys Season Ended

The Philadelphia Eagles put an end to the season of the Dallas Cowboys today, handing them their lunch in a 44-6 win that puts a sad ending to the life of Texas Stadium.

Many had hoped the sloppy play of the Cowboys might be just enough to get them through the regular season, then we could hope they gunned up for the playoffs. But unfortunately it wasn't meant to be.

For the last two years Dallas has fallen short, usually led by a botched play during a critical moment by quarterback Tony Romo. And this year was no different, except the disasters didn't happen in the playoffs but the regular season, and the botched play wasn't just the fault of Romo, but instead spread out amongst what should be the stars.

And speaking of, the Dallas Stars aren't shining much better. Still hovering at last place in their division, we are hoping this year (early 2009) will not be a season of two early season endings.

I Need to Poison My Husband

A nice, calm and respectable lady went into the pharmacy, right up to the pharmacist, looked straight into his eyes, and said, “I would like to buy some cyanide.

”The pharmacist asked, “Why in the world do you need cyanide?”

The lady replied, “I need it to poison my husband.”

The pharmacists eyes got big and he exclaimed, “Lord have mercy!

I can’t give you cyanide to kill your husband! That’s against the law!

I’ll lose my license! They’ll throw both of us in jail! All kinds of bad things will happen. Absolutely not! You CANNOT have any cyanide!”

The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist’s wife.

The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied, “Well now. That’s different. You didn’t tell me you had a prescription.”

Santa Sighting!

Last night we are driving down the service road of Hwy 121 and traffic started to build up. Up ahead was a police car in the middle lane, and in front of it was a small passenger truck where the entire engine seemed to have just dropped out from underneath it.

As we got closer, we noticed the driver talking to the policeman as they looked underneath the truck.

The driver- Santa Claus!

Unfortunately I couldn't safely get a picture of the odd spectacle.

Bush and the Flying Shoe

Most people are aware by now about the incident where an Iraqi journalist threw his shoes at President Bush during his last surprise visit to the country. There are just three things I want to say about this incident-

1) As much as I can't stand President Bush and the job he's done, I'm extremely impressed with his defensive maneuver against the flying shoe. Let's face it, he's no spring chicken, and even as much as everyone hates him, with the Secret Service around there isn't much of a need to keep on top of his combat skills. Yet, out of the blue, when a shoe came hurdling at him, he simply tucked to the side and let it pass, then stood back up and smirked. Bravo! He even put his hand out and stopped the agent that was about to snatch him and take him out of the room. That's TWICE he's done that sort of thing.

2) I was a little shocked that the journalist was able to get a second shoe airborne before he was tackled. It appears the offending shoes were lace ups, so was he able to get them unlaced and two thrown that quickly? Wow, if he did. Or, is it more likely he already had them untied? If so, why wasn't this noticed by the Secret Service? Surely someone walking around in a room with their shoes untied would have raised a red flag. Even more so if he had to bend down to untie them. Also, I wonder if he practiced this at home? "Honey, stand here for a minute........"

3) Virtually everyone hates Bush except for a minute number of right wing religious radicals, but no matter how much you can't stand the President, you don't throw shoes at foreign dignitaries visiting your country. As much as I would have loved to see that shoe connect right on target, it was totally uncalled for and I hope after they dragged him out of the room they beat the crap out of him. Twice.

For those that missed it, here it is:

Annie's Home!

After a month long trip to the Philippines, Annie Lou has finally made it home. As soon as we arrived she hit the pillow and she was out cold. It is an exhausting trip. The journey home consisted of four airports in three countries, over 14 time zones and one day backwards, all over a 23 hour period.

I've always believed the trip back to the USA was worse than the one going over to the Philippines. Leaving in the A.M. here, when you arrive in the A.M. the next day there you have to fast forward you clock 14 hours, so it ends up being late evening, just before midnight. So when you get out of the airport and to your destination, its easy to lay down for several hours and sleep, then get up in time for the morning in your new time zone.

But on the way back, at the end of that 23 hour journey, according to the clocks you've only been in the air for about 8 hours. She departed Manila at 6:25 A.M. and arrived 23 hours later at 2:21 P.M.- all the same calendar day.

One odd note about it as well, is when you travel to the Philippines via Japan, they are an hour ahead of the Philippines. So when you go from the USA to Japan, you land there in a time zone 15 hours ahead. But then you return and travel southeast back towards the USA and land in the Philippines which is just 14 hours ahead.

What is the most time zones you have crossed? How long did you stay? Which was worse, the trip there or the trip home? And was the place you were traveling to ahead or behind you in the time zones?
