Perfect Pizza Preferences




What Your Pizza Reveals



Your appetite is pretty average. You don't go overboard - but you don't deprive yourself either.

You are a very picky pizza eater. Not any pizza will do. You fit in best in the Northeast part of the US.

You like food that's traditional and well crafted. You aren't impressed with "gourmet" foods.

You are generous, outgoing, and considerate with your choices.

You are cultured and intellectual. You should consider traveling to Vienna.

The stereotype that best fits you is redneck. Your friends secretly agree.

Burnin' the Bricks Part VII

From the June 14, 2008 "Burnin' the Bricks" car show in Pampa:

Yeah, right.

The last time I checked, I thought it might've been "Junior High".

The end is near, folks.

TV Reviews

Why would a real genius want to read something by a non-genius. (me)

That's like asking Tiger Woods if he wants to play golf with you.

I thought this thing really was genuine until this last one.

I need to start a "Doofus" label, but it would index way too many posts.

The Duck & the Doofus

A cool hood ornament and the reflection of a very bad photographer.

One Good Thing About Alcohol



After he has a couple more martinis, he won't be afraid to turn around.

I never cared much for the taste of alcohol, but always enjoyed the way it made me extremely clever and oh-so-much better looking.

Potter County sheriff convicted in public corruption case

(I'm not going to copy and paste the entire AP news story. I don't want to have to room with Shumate)

Mike Shumate, Potter Co. sheriff, has been convicted of taking bribes in regards to a food service contract for the county jail.

Shumate first gained attention as the man in the Amarillo Crimestoppers TV ads, urging people to call in and report any information they have on crimes. Each segment aired during the ten o'clock news and reported on a recent crime, almost always ending with a shot of a jail door slamming shut and the warning by Shumate that "Bubba was waiting for you.", "Bubba" being a generic term for some badass inmate who would be the wrongdoer's roomie in prison.

Not that I was doing anything to be sent to prison over, but it always made ME want to keep my nose clean and stay outta jail.

It would be bad enough to have to go to prison, but how bad is it for former law enforcement people convicted of felonies and sentenced? *shudder*
