Local billboard - a jewelry store advertising a large diamond pendent - "She'll reward you with the remote."
Looked out the back the other day and saw a LARGE limb leaning into my neighbor's tree. Hmmm. Look at that. My neighbor has a big limb that has fallen. Glad it's not one of my trees. You know the rest. The tree service will be out today to get MY big limb out of the neighbor's tree.
There is a large duck pond behind Mimi's Cafe here. Went there for breakfast the other day (Mimi's - not the pond) and found that some of the ducks had figured out that there's better eating by begging at Mimi's front door than hanging out back in the pond.
Did the sound for a pre-school program at church the other evening. I think I've mentioned before that I wish I had the money invested in video recorders and cameras that were present at that event.
There's news regarding Barb's anaphalaxis problem (when she passes out and takes an unscheduled nap on the dining room floor). There's a slight chance that chocolate is the culprit. Or maybe beef, lamb and pork. Or both. Barb is NOT happy about this development. Stay tuned.
The University of Texas zealously polices any use of logos, slogans, images, etc. that are linked to the University. By doing so, they generate more than 1.5 million dollars in trademark revenue each year - more than any other school. New high school? Want to name your team the Longhorns? Probably not. Not only is UT afraid they might lose some trademark revenue, this year they are afraid that some might confuse the two football programs.
Latest to join the hit list is a guy in Cedar Park who built a car wash and stood a big white 60-foot tower beside it. A tower that looks suspiciously like the 300-foot one in downtown Austin. It took UT lawyers less than a week to file against this infringement. Maybe they were afraid students would confuse the two and head for Cedar Park and then fail to show up for class. Or they might lose revenue on visitors to the top of the tower. At any rate, it looks like the guy will have to make like an Aggie and "saw the tower off."

No chocolate would be terrible.
Saw another billboard from the jewelry store while I was out and about today. "She'll forgive you - finally!"
