There's No Place Like Home

It is finally raining a good amount today. It is no drought breaker, but it certainly is better than what we've been having lately.

Kinky Friedman really did make a conference call to Ole Moulton Bank on Thursday Night. He is spreading his message of reform and can really speak well on behalf of people who feel they are poorly represented by the current status quo. As a third generation died-in-the-wool big-D Democrat, it is hard for me to endorse not voting in the Primary. But Kinky doesn't get to make it on the ballot unless there is a real low turn out. There is no ticket splitting on the Republican side either. Besides, Bob Gammage is a tool and a dino. See if you can help: www.kinkyfriedman.com

Speaking of crypto-politicians, there is an interesting search in the Piney Woods for the Texas Bigfoot, according to www.mysanantonio.com I had no idea that there even was a Texas Bigfoot, but evidently that's what the Great Cypress Swamp Monster is. Check out www.texasbigfoot.com I always thought most of those stories like "Wild Man of Navasotta" by J. Frank Dobie, and so on, were about runaway slaves; sad and tragic, not scarey, but who knows? By the way, the story about a 12-foot silver-haired wookie shucking corn in Wallsville sounds a lot like Chill Wills on a bender, and I reserve the right to remain skeptical.
