NORTH TX WEATHER, MEDIA METEOROLIGISTS AND IKE

Even though I'm a weather geek, I certainly don't envy the local weather men/women here in North Texas.
The impending doom of IKE was certain reason for our friends south of us to evacuate and the damage it did to Houston, Galveston, Beaumont and other cities bears that out.
Now that we've seen IKE pass Dallas by, the non-stop coverage on at least one Dallas TV station [Channel 8] today now seems fruitless! [But, dang it, I would've loved to have been there is the thick of it!]
But there was also some humor to be found. While Houston/Galveston/Beaumont were being told to evacuate or die ... us North Texans were told this: Due to the potential of heavy rain and high winds, local residents should be reminded to secure lawn furniture, potted plants and garbageroll carts.
LOL! I secured my potted plants and went to a birthday party.

What!? A Gay Cardinal? I Thought They Were Just Red

Potential saint's burial site hints at gay pastUpon his death in 1890, Cardinal John Henry Newman asked to be buried next to his longtime friend and housemate, Ambrose St. John, fueling speculation that the two men may have been lovers. Today, Newman is a candidate for sainthood, and some activists are opposing the Vatican's desire to move his remains to a more public venue, according to this article. TIME (8/28)

Gay Rich Dweebs Endorse The Old Guy

Who else would they endorse?

What about Palin's gaydar-pinging husband?
IMHO ... he's not the straightest board in the shed.

McCain gets Log Cabin's nodSaying Sen. John McCain is an "inclusive Republican," Log Cabin Republicans has endorsed his presidential bid. The endorsement comes despite the GOP's official platform, which advocates a constitutional amendment to restrict marriage rights. Log Cabin spokesman Scott Tucker said, "To be honest, the platform was not the hill we were going to die on. We wanted to be here and participate in the conversation." McCain is on record opposing marriage rights for gays and lesbians, but has expressed strong opposition to a federal constitutional ban. CQ Today (9/2) , CNN (9/3)

DO NOT READ THE DALLAS MORNING NEWS TECH BLOG

Apparently nowadays major newspapers including The Dallas Morning News publish information [at least on their blogs] based on unverified information found in blogger-drivel.

Case in point:
Do not buy the 3G iPhone

Why This? Because We Can!

When I first read about this on The Dallas Morning News Tech blog [link below] I thought: why would people like you and me need this link http://www.criminalsearches.com/?
School districts, businesses and such should use this, but us?
So I tested it. I put my own name in and found that "there ain't nothin' on me" in the database. (Oh, good. Those school zone speeding tickets from 1986 are no longer there!)
Then I keyed in the name of a former boyfriend and found stuff that ... makes me glad he's out of my life.
