Are We At The End Of Texas Broadcaster Alex Jones’ Bugnutty Behavior?
Alex Jones may be at the end of his rope. I love it when people say, "I thought this was America!" and use it to defend the most reprehensible behavior.

He is now finding out that he has the freedom to say anything, but the repercussions can ruin you.
Dear Texas Tech, Please Make Us Proud In The Metallica Marching Band Competition

Yes, Big Mac Hats Existed and They Were Spectacular
You won't catch me shopping for hats in thrift stores. Nope, it's not because I have any phobias about cleanliness or wearing second-hand hats. It's just that my head is, well, larger than average. Think "news anchor head." So, when I see something labeled "one size fits all," I can't help but chuckle.
