Weekend OTB & Linkfest for Dec. 1-3, 2006
Legally blind woman, 94, bowls a 244
Esther Medley of Centralia, Washington is legally blind, but when she bowls she can glimpse a bit of the floor to line up with the lane.
Medley, 94, can’t see straight ahead, so her 86-year-old husband Ralph tells her which pins are left after her first ball.
That’s how Medley recently bowled a score of 244, which included eight strikes, at Fairway Lanes in Centralia. It was the second-highest score of the year for her league.
The Medleys have been bowling in the senior league since 1979.

A Tale of Two Countries: Lebanon and Iraq
It is extreme, possibly not even plausible, but in a perfect world none of this would be going on. Perhaps extreme measures should be considered.

Pig Races In Katy
With reluctance, I support them. But I feel sad about needing to do so. All snout and tail, the pink and brown pigs contentedly rooting in the wire pen behind Craig Baker’s stone shop seem piggishly comic. They’re racing pigs,…

al-Qaida in Iraq
We are being told by the MSM that Iraq is falling into civil war and is out of control. It is hard to explain that to the people who are IN Iraq. Apparently, what they are seeing is totally different than what we are being force-fed by the American M…
Idiocracy - A world filled with Liberals and Musli
Sometimes you can tell just from a plot outline whether a movie will be entertaining or not. For example, I would pass on “a family gets lost and stumbles upon a hidden, underground, devil-worshiping cult led by the fearsome Master and his servant To…
