Happy Black Friday today, folks! Hope you’re enjoying the American version of the Running of the Bulls. Me? I’m sitting in my man cave, avoiding the crowd because we’re done with our shopping this year. Sick isn’t it? I thank my terribly organized wife because if it were up to me, we’d be buying fake tattoos for everyone on Dec. 24.
Jackson, Mississippi weather. After feeling like Cozumel, Mexico yesterday, it feels more like Columbus, Ohio today. Here’s the area forecast via the National Weather Service.
OK, the other news of the day:
1. North Korea is firing more artillery near the struck South Korean island and threatening war. South Korea has done the equivalent of firing it’s defensive coordinator and North Korea is saying joint U.S./S. Korean war games could lead to war on the Korean penensula. Speak to a Korean War vet and he’ll tell you that we don’t want any part of that.
2. Saints 30 Cowboys 27: Saints act like new Saints and then old Saints and then like new Saints to comeback and beat Cowboys after blowing lead.
3. Here’s you some Egg Bowl coverage from the newspaper I work part-time for. Also, here’s Rick Cleveland’s column on why he thought Mississippi State lineman Derek Sherrod should have won The Cellular South Conerly Trophy
4. Three boys who survive 50 days adrift at sea are rescued. They drank rainwater, ate a few coconuts, an unlucky seagull who landed on their boat and a few raw fish. I ate much better on my cruise.
5. Here’s Odd News Video for the Day. The video features the cat who jumps in the box and the world’s tallest couple.
I have missed the good old days when you did the news like this every morning. Glad to see you did it again :) Always brings a laugh!
BTW, you are DA MAN-I have qualms about taking my twin 19 yr old sons and 12 y/o daughter, yet you have the cojones to take a 3 yr old. IMPRESSIVE. Was he one of your two that did karaoke? LOL
