Not Mine. Craig Terlson’s. I was thinking about seeing this movie. Hermits plan their schedules with great care, and we won’t leave the house without a fire at our backside or a very bright light with heat at the front. It sounds like No Country For Old Men offers plenty of both.

Not to spoil your day, but if your home was built in the 70s, you might want to tip toe into the basement and gingerly run a flash light beam across the front of your electric panel. If you see the words Federal Pacific, back away slowly then run for your lives.

I don’t usually watch sports, but I enjoyed the video of Trinity University winning its game against Millsaps College, using a play designed by the Harlem Globetrotters.
But according to Bob Harris, I should have trotted the Globe a bit further for the true comparison.
