Jesus has returned.

This is amazing footage of Christ, who has made his triumphant return to earth, on a piece of french toast. I found this on World Net Daily.com, so it is probably true. I'll keep you posted on further developments.

Big Football Weekend

Well, if you missed it, both our teams won this weekend. Bridgeport Bulls decimated Decatur, 56-7, and qualified for the playoffs. And Tech rolled up the Okie Cowboys 56-20, on national televison. This year, the Big 12 conference has a great chance to send a team to the national championship. Tech is #2, Texas is #3, and Oklahoma is #5. We have got to play OU in 2 weeks, up in Norman, so make sure and watch it, it will be a good game.

Good luck to Zach and the Bulls, they will start their playoff run in 2 weeks, and they have a good chance to make it to state.

BIG GAME THIS SATURDAY

If you aren't doing anything Saturday night, Oklahoma State is coming to Lubbock to play the Raiders. Just like last week, this will probably be a heck of a game. So if you don't even like football, this will be fun to watch. Tech is #2 in the nation, and has a chance to play for a national championship should they win their next 3 games. This football success has been fantastic for the city of Lubbock.
Also, my nephew Zach is playing in a big game tomorrow night. His team, Bridgeport HS, is playing their biggest rival, Decatur. Bridgeport is #1 in the state in 3A, and Zach is a starting defensive lineman. I got to watch them a couple of weeks ago, and they look like a college team. So, good luck Zach.
I don't want to turn this into a political blog, but I will encourage you to get involved in local politics. Whether you are liberal or conservative, you live in a democracy, and your views count. This latest election showed us how uniformed we are, from both sides, and how we continue to take a uninterested stance toward who we cede political power to. There could come point at which we can't get that power back. Ask those in Cuba or Venezuela. Anyway, have a good weekend.

DEMOCRACY IS A HARSH MISTRESS.

These three have promised change, so you had better hide your piggy banks.

Well, if you didn't stay up late to watch the Tech game, you missed it. Even if you are not a football fan, this was one of the greatest games ever played. Tech got out to an early lead, but let it go in the 2nd half. Texas scored and took the lead with only 2 minutes left in the game. Tech drove the ball and scored with 1 second left on the clock to beat the #1 team in the country. It was truly one of those games where you didn't get up to go to the bathroom! Well, we are excited here in Lubbock for the Raiders. We've got to play the Pokes from Okie state next week, so be sure to watch it. It will be another nail biter.

Raiders v Longhorns

Well, tomorrow is the big day for college football. The Horns are #1 in the nation, and the Raiders are #6. They play tomorrow at 7, so be sure to watch and root for the Raiders. This game could have national championship implications, so we are really excited.

Not much going on here is west Texas. I finally got around to pouring some sidewalks around my house, and in the backyard. For the last few weeks, I have had part of the fence down, so I could get the tractor in the backyard. So, my dogs were always loose. Well, perfect timing, my female went into heat, and you could never keep her home. (she has loose morals.) Then Baron got in a fight over her with another dog, and he got the bad end of the deal. I had to take him to the vet today, to get his face sewed up. I think he'll take up celibacy after this.

Make sure you go vote, if you haven't already. We are at a crossroads in this great country. I hope sincerely that our country isn't about to make a terrible mistake come Tuesday.
Kruschev once predicted that Americans would, over time, take small bites of Communism, (hidden under the cloak of the Democratic party,) until one day we will wake up as Communists ourselves. He may have been right.

But, keep your chin up. We all ought to be getting our "Bailout" any day now. Right?

Well, I went fishing yesterday at a lake by Munday, TX. If you don't know where that is, it is in the middle of nowhere. It was a nice lake, but it managed to rain starting in the evening and all night long. These two yahoos are a couple of firemen that I work with. They caught this 15 pound yellow on a throw line. I left early this morning, and didn't get to run the lines, so I don't know if they caught any more. I suspect they did.

We have gotten several inches of rain yesterday and today in Lubbock.
