The June Bugs worship the Light

Here is a repost of last summer's photos of the june bugs gathering for worship service to pray to the great light (bug light, that is). Other bugs fly into it and die, but the june bugs just surround it and hang out. It's great because they are not in the garage bothering me. So there you go. The same phenomenon has started already this year. I have to put the light in the driveway to keep the june bugs out of the garage.

Hard to Starboard!

And, I hear on WBAP this morning that there was an incident on the last cruise of the Carnival Ecstacy, a ship we have cruised on twice. Apparently, there was a buoy that had broken free and was floating free in the Gulf. The Ecstacy happened upon it and had to make a hard right turn to avoid a collision. The turn was hard enough to knock things off of shelves and make several passenger actually fall down. Luckily, no one was hurt badly enough to require medical attention. We have been on so many cruises, and we have never had a bad one. I love cruising.

Ducks in my front yard

A pair of ducks have taken up residence in my front yard. I suspect they have a nest somewhere nearby because they don't seem inclined to stray too far from our yard. I enjoy watching them.

My roses are blooming...

Navy Seal cleared of abuse charge.

Do you all remember this scandal from last year where the left was trying to discredit our servicemen and elevate the terrorists to some type of martyrdom in the United States? Guess what. The first of the accused Navy Seals has been tried and found innocent of "abusing" a prisoner, as in, it didn't happen. Perhaps the turning point in the case is that the prisoner had no injuries. Perhaps it was simply because the whole thing was trumped up by Obama and his left wing cronies to tear down the military and elevate middle eastern terrorists in the eyes of the American people.

Let me just recall...the main stream media couldn't carry the story of the accusations of the Seals enough, but have you heard a word about the NOT GUILTY verdict?

The left it trying to scam us at every turn, and so many of you are swallowing the BS.

It might be fun...

...to make blog entries about what I see in Denton County for a change.

Noticed on another blog...

I was just reading the blog called Liberally Lean, which is operated by a friend of mine in Decatur. I see that he mentioned that Paige and I were leaving the DA's Office at the end of the month. I thought it was nice that he didn't hack on us given our historic differences in views of the need for law enforcement. It was never personal and I always enjoyed visiting with BG, especially when we weren't necessarily talking about any of his clients.
The comments on the blog are particularly amusing. I want to thank whoever it was that said Wise County was losing "two awesome prosecutors". We tried very hard, and I felt like we brought alot to the table. It is nice to hear the odd compliment every so often.
I will tell you that the awesome people in the office are the administrative staff for all the work they do to keep that place afloat (Tessa, hang in there, it will be all right). They have their hands full. I hope Greg can find some good replacements for us.
It was a good job, and for the most part, a fun and exciting job. There is still alot of hard work to do, but like I always say: it was there when I showed up and it will be there when I'm gone.
What matters is that I gave the job my full attention and effort. I will do the same for my new career and for my clients.
