A Touch of TAR!
If you watched last season’s Amazing Race, you are familiar with Brandon, and his decision to not shave his head for one of the challenges because he is a model. Well, here he is – full head of hair (that I don’t think is really that good looking) – in a Target Weekly Ad! [...]

Pro-Kerry for Many Reasons…
I was reading another site today that asked how, as a Christian, anyone could vote for Kerry. She felt that voting for him was against many Christian beliefs. I disagree. First and foremost, I don’t think our war-monger president is very Christian in the sense that he chose to go to war [...]
Record Breaking HEAT…
We had a record breaking high of 86 today in Galveston, breaking a record set in 1927. That was cooler than it was in Houston though – where it was 89 degrees with humidity making it feel like 95 degrees.

Go SOX!!!
From ESPN: “Can 86 years of hardship really end like this? Can the Red Sox sweep aside the ghosts in dominating fashion? Derek Lowe has thrown seven shutout innings in Game 4, as the Red Sox lead St. Louis 3-0 (ESPN Radio Live) in the eighth.”
I’m hoping! GO SOX!!! GO SOX!!! GO [...]
