I love Texas.  I do.  But even I have to admit that it’s hard to live here.

Until times like now.

I am given to understand that the rest of you are freezing to death.  It’s so damn cold that it’ll freeze boiling water so fast that it’ll make warm ice cubes.

Oh sure, we have hurricanes.  They give you three days warning to get out of town and go to some nice hotel in San Antonio.  Beats the hell outta shoveling snow.

Y’all stay warm out there.

My email crashed at the server for 24 hours.  So, if you emailed me anything in the past 24 hours, please send it again.

Sorry.

Louie Gohmert has a website for his speaker of the house race, y’all.

You simply can’t miss it.

And, y’all, so far he has one endorsement.  One.  Why, that’s practically … well, one.

Thanks to Arun for the heads up.

He’s gonna do it.

These two smiling faces made it official.  Louie Gohmert is running for speaker of the house of representatives.

Yep, Louie chose the doofus Tucker Carlson to make his announcement.

Rep. Louie Gohmert (TX-01) spoke to Tucker Carlson on Fox & Friends about the need for someone to step up and run against Speaker Boehner in this new Congress. He echoed what many House Members are saying that there needs to be new leadership, not just the status quo and he is happy to accept the challenge.

Well hell, if he’s going to speaking the most, might as well give him the title.

Let the popcorn popping begin!

Oh, Florida, sometimes I love you so much.

A couple got trapped in a closet for two days at Daytona State College.

Bless their hearts.  Can you even imagine the horror of being trapped in a closet for two days?  And then to get arrested?

Police were alerted to the couple when a distressed man called the police saying that his son was trapped in closet at the school.

Police had been led to the college campus by pings on a cellphone, per WFTV. Upon arrival, the couple — John Arwood (31) and Amber Campbell (25) — was found in the closet in the science building.

It was unknown as to why they were in there in the first place.

Unknown?  Really?  Not even a hint?

In an odd twist, the police state that the couple could have just gotten out of the closet at any time. The door locked from the inside so they simply could have walked out on their own.

Well, obviously not physic majors.

Detectives did notice the scent of meth when the two trapped in the closet exited. An object that is commonly used to smoke crack was also found in their possession.

 

Yep, no hint as to how they got into the closet, but I think we can figure on how they couldn’t get out.

Ole David Duke is threatening congress.  He says that if congress doesn’t leave Steve Saclise alone, he’ll name congressmen – both Democratic and Republican – who have licked his boots.

Do it, weasel.  Do it.

In fact, I’ll give you fifty bucks cash American money to do it.

Next, the Koch brothers threaten to expose congressmen in bed with them.  Hell, Bros, we’ll give you the keys to Los Angeles for that.  Sorry, El Lay, but we need to save the rest of the country and y’all ain’t much anyway.

What David Duke considers a threat, I consider a blessing.

Thanks to Sharon for the heads up.
