Yesterday as I was driving down the service road of Dallas North Tollway, I’m sitting behind this Lexus and watch the driver casually toss out about 1/3 of a lit cigarette onto the road. I was planning to tap my horn, and signal to the driver to pick this up. Instead, I picked up my trusty BlackBerry, and I reported the car (and the driver) to the Texas Department of Transportation’s Report a Litterer website.

From the website:

TxDOT compares the information to our vehicle registration database and when an exact match is located, we send the litterer a Don’t Mess with Texas litterbag along with a letter reminding them to keep their trash off of our roads.

And I did feel good about it

Don’t they grow up so quickly? It’s Bobby’s birthday today, and he just keeps looking the same. Why won’t he grow up?!?!

Happy Birthing Day Bobby!

This morning our house was rudely awakened by the tornado sirens wailing to advise that we were once again under a “tornado warning” and we should seek shelter immediately. It was about 4:01 AM. The danger passed by relatively quickly, but there is no alarm clock like a tornado siren. It is going to be one hell of a storm season.
