5 Things We Know On A Sunday

  1. Pray for my Brother-In-Law this weekend… He’s not sick or anything.. But he has succumbed to an addiction… something even worse than golf. Fly-Fishing. He got his first rod and reel set-up this weekend. I can see where this is heading. If you know, you know. I welcome him to the club! I hope he becomes a fly-fishing snob. We need all the help we can get! When he calls me later this week debating an elk hair caddis pattern vs a simple nymph or spinning drake fly on certain waters… I’ll know the takeover of his brain is complete… Friends don’t let friends Fly-Fish…
  2. Goal for the day? Have every bit of laundry done, folded, hung-up and put away by the time we go to bed tonight. With a college-age son back home, this is no easy task. If you’re missing any towels around your house, let us know. They could very well be in his room… We’ll let you know how things go in the morning column when we recap the weekend with y’all. Good luck, laundry warriors today!
  3. All politicians should be required by law to spend 80% of their time at home in their district and only 10% or 15% of their time in Washington D.C. or Austin. They should have to keep office hours like a college professor. They should have to live with their decisions every day, around the people they are affecting with their decisions. The insular nature of the current political process on politicians creates bad policy and bad law. There is one major downside to this of course. It would mean we’d have more politicians roaming freely amongst us normal folks back home….
  4. Have hot-wings “jumped the shark” in the world of appetizers? It feels like it. The shortage of wings over the last several years, high prices and even the slowing down of the popularity of sports bars makes it feel like hot-wings are no longer the Go-To app. It feels like nachos have regained their place on top in the food world. Has your personal hot-wing consumption dropped over the last several years? Give us your thoughts and if you know of any great hot-wings in Lubbock, pass it along.
  5. If one of ABC, NBC or CBS would show re-runs of M*A*S*H after the local ten o’clock news, America would instantly be a better nation.
