Or maybe a better title would be "Jerry Jones Can Sell ANYTHING" I love my Dallas Cowboys I do I do I do. Reading the website today there is an article about the demolition of the old Texas Stadium . This was interesting to me as I have been to that stadium before and talks about the process of bringing it down and what the city plans to do with the land blah blah blah blah. And this is the last paragraph: Fireworks will precede the demolition, and the event will be emceed by ESPN's Chris Berman. Casey Rogers, an 11-year old from nearby Terrell, won an essay contest for the chance to press the final button completing the implosion, which is sponsored by Kraft Macaroni & Cheese. How in the world do you sell naming rights to the demolition of your own stadium? In the words of those old Guinness commercials "BRILLIANT"

And before the age of 49! If you don't want to keep spilling the cinnamon maybe moving it somewhere away from the cooking utensil you use often is not the worse idea evah. I am now going to try this tactic and have great faith it will work out.

So my vacation plan for this year has been for a while to get back to Fort Worth in the Spring/Summer so I could go to Scarborough Fair My reason for this is simple. I really want to get back to Fort Worth for a vacation. And go to Scarborough which we did a lot when I lived there. Ok AHEM Amongst my reasons....... (that was for you Bob) LOL I will also get to see Christina (yes lunch is on at LJS BABEEEEEEEE) and also one of two ex girlfriends that I still think about to this day (the other one is in CO so she probably won't be there) Hopefully this will all work out. And if not I will be back there the first weekend in September when the MIGHTY MIGHTY TCU HORNED FROGS open their season at Jerry-World in Arlington!!! I love the smell of pending vacations at 9:50 on a Wednesday evening

So I had to take the car in to the dealer because the check engine light was on. I don't worry about the check engine light because every time it has happened to me I either lost my gas cap or it was not on correctly and the car loss some pressure or vacuum in the line. I took out the work order tonight to put it in my "car folder" and this is what the first 3 sentences were: Customer states check engine light on. Test Drove Vehicle Check Engine light is on Really? I brought my car in for service and it actually needed, ya know, service? Because there is nothing I like more than to be without a car all freaking day long at work. Turns out I needed a sensor (which the service person told me it was a hail mary they had in stock but they did). So new sensor goes in, check engine light goes out. But under parts they say they put in a "thruster". Hmmm if I experience any sudden uncontrolled acceleration y'all are my witness's!
