The Fort Worth Star-Telegram has a wonderful profile of Coach Leach in today’s issue.
 
As much fun as it is to get caught up in the talk of statistics and training and positions and first games at this time of year, it’s always nice to get a little more insight into the mind that is Mike […]

Found a video interview with Kinky from WOAI out of San Antonio. If you don’t know where Kinky stands on issues–and certainly if you’ve never seen him speak in person, you should watch it.
 
The reporter is hard to hear and it looks like it’s of online-only production quality (camera bobbles around–looks like an online […]

I couldn’t help but smile, Tuesday, as I perused my reading material in a bathroom stall in the math building.
 
It’s always disheartening to read the wall and realize someone can’t keep their crap in the toilet, insisting on their right to scrawl racist statements or commit general atrocities against the grammar gods.
 
Some statements on that […]

America, with its history of immigration, has long been the veritable and now cliché “melting-pot” in which a new sort of people would emerge—the forerunners of a global society.
 
This road has certainly not been smooth—call it the scenic route through not-so-scenic country. This road has not reached its destination, but it is not a road […]

A commentary by Martin Frost was posted on the FoxNews Web site Monday. It is still on the front page of the site, under “Views.” See it here: Media Has ‘Kinky’ Way of Covering Texas Politics
 
His facts don’t really seem to check out, though, so here’s the letter I sent him.
 
You’re certainly entitled to your […]

It’s not often that Lubbock manages to get Kinky, but Kinky Friedman will be in town Sunday.
 
Kinky will be at Bleacher’s Sports Cafe (1719 Buddy Holly Ave.) from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. for a meet-and-greet.
 
That’s part of why I haven’t been posting much. I’ve been working with the local campaign (both in the county […]

I probably don’t have to say what loud children and smoking have in common for most to figure out that they’re both annoying and tend to impinge on the experience of those who have or do neither when they’re out in public. While this has something to do with where I’m going, however, it isn’t […]

So, I un-lazied and added a plugin I wanted to have before I opened up comments to un-registered users (which is, at this point, everyone on the internet but me, yay!) But that’s not why we’re here, I don’t think.
 
Just FYI. Those annoying little stickers on your fruit? You only have to take them off […]

So here’s the deal: There’s a seat on the toilet, and it’s made for asses. It isn’t made for your piss, so don’t put it there. No, you are probably not good enough to piss through the 3 inch gap in the center. Just lift the seat, mmkay?
 
I swear, the next time my intestines are […]

So, this is the first post. That probably means it won’t be read by anyone until the site is already rolling–I’ll probably have more content up before anyone even visits.
 
That makes this an interesting sort of post, since it’s likely to only be a retrospective look back at the creation of this “thing” […]
