Flipant Friday

Tweet

Today is the first day of fall and the leaves are already beginning to turn…That’s a laugh, not that it is the first day of fall, the bit about the leaves turning colors.  There are no leaves.  It has been so hot in Texas this summer that the leaves turned brown back in July and by August they had mostly fallen off.  The grass is dead and so are a lot of the trees and shrubbery.   The only things in Texas that is turning today is the air conditioner up and the water hose on.

However, on this Friday the 23rd of September there is something about to fall for the first time and unfortunately it is not rain drops.  The 6.5 ton satellite known as UARS is going to fall out of the sky sometime today.  It is about the size of a school bus and NASA is not sure where it is going to come down. So if you plan on being outside today, you might want to wear a hard hat.

Facebook has had more face lifts than Joan Rivers with about the same results.  A little scarier each time.

Last night's Republican debate was a real slug fest.  By slug, I mean those slimy creepy crawly things. It was an hour an half of Romney and Perry standing toe to toe saying, “Did not..did too, did not, did too,” while the six other little boys and one little girl stood around with their hands in their pockets not making eye contact.

Republicans hate paying taxes so much that one would think that Al Capone founded their party.

A pick-up truck crashed into a Whataburger in Pasadena today.  I don’t why people are upset. There was a large sign out front that clearly said, “Drive-In Window.”

It looks like the AT&T and T-Mobile merger may not go through.  A spokesman said they are trying to work out the details.  He said they have all of the I’s dotted but there may be too many T’s to cross.


Stay tuned for future adventures.
