A horribly boring town 30 miles south of Dallas with nothing fun to do but sit in lawn chairs in large fields and drink beer. Home of the Murphys. Enough said.
by Shannykins April 30, 2005
A small town that has slowly grown over the years and now thinks it's a big deal even though it's really not. Ignorance reigns supreme.

A church town babymill whose prime function is to create poor Marines and trailer park denizens. A little less than 30 miles south of Dallas, but seemingly an isolated hamlet of puritanical colleges and racist cops, the only things to do are to get pregnant and do drugs.

This is the Sport Rack Cargo Basket 421030 and the 22" extension 421031 (56 inch total length).
This product is similar to the Yakima.Thule racks but is substantially cheaper (25-30%). I am VERY happy with this rack, simple to install and very strong.

Windshield brackets?
Okay so here's the deal.
I've been meaning to mount lights on my windshield on my JK for a while now. My dad told me he had PIAA lights stowed up somewhere in our house up state. Comes home today and guess what he brings back...these ancient Pilot lights. (He's too proud to wear his glasses :whistling:) Only thing is, i already ordered PIAA light brackets, and its too late to cancel. I was wondering if these brackets are kind "universal" since all they do is attack to the windshield screws and have a hole for the light to attach to. I have no idea what model the Pilots are, but I'm pretty sure they are 5 inch fogs. Help?!
I'm don't know if they will mount up or not but you wont like fogs mounted at the windshield. They will light up your hood. You need long range up top and fogs should go up front.
Fog lights should be as low as possible.

Where: Firestone Stadium in Akron.
Who: Area teams North Canton Hoover, Tallmadge and Manchester.
Division II: Tallmadge (24-3) vs. Lima Bath (27-1) in a state semifinal at 10 a.m. today with Newark Licking Valley (27-4) and Plain City Jonathan Alder (27-1) set for 12:30 p.m. The Division II state championship will be at 10 a.m. Saturday.
A look at Tallmadge: The Blue Devils feature senior Kirsten Lightel who is 22-2 pitching with a 0.48 ERA and 232 strikeouts in 159⅔ innings, and is batting .310 with 12 RBI. Sophomore Kali Stroud (.343, four home runs), junior Joanna Catalano (.341 with 27 RBI and seniors Mackenzie Gershom (.333) and Taylor Phillips (.311) are each hitting over .300. Seniors Tori Young, Nicolette Williams, Emily Bratnick and Brandy Wakefield also start along with sophomore Lexi Philen. Coach Ed Seeker said senior Sierra Bennett (.500) could pinch-hit this weekend after missing most of May with a knee injury. "We don't feel comfortable putting her in to play defensively, but she has been working out and swinging and running," Seeker said. "If we can get an opportunity where we feel we can get her in to pinch-hit, we will definitely consider that." Tallmadge won state titles in 1998, 1997, 1993, 1989, 1988, 1987 and 1981.
Division I: North Canton Hoover (27-3) vs. Lebanon (32-0) in a state semifinal at 3 p.m. today with Elyria (23-7) and Grove City (25-4) will meet at 5:30 p.m. The Division I state championship will be at 1 p.m. Saturday.
A look at Hoover: The Vikings are seeking another state title following triumphs in 2013, 2012, 2011, 2008, 2006, 1999 and 1998. Seniors Jenna Lilley, Kelly Dillow, Tara Thacker and Kaitlyn Eckelberry are experienced in big-game situations. Thacker is Hoover's ace pitcher at 24-3 and a solid hitter. Lilley, sophomore Andrea Farrah, freshman Kaitlyn Yun and junior Kathleen Shier are each batting over .400. Dillow, Eckelberry, freshman Heather Pinney and sophomore Gina Tubo also start and are steady offensively and defensively for coach Jerry Goodpasture.
Division III: Richwood North Union (21-6) vs. Williamsport Westfall (27-3) in a state semifinal at 3 p.m. Friday with Carroll Bloom-Carroll (27-3) and Manchester (20-8) set to start at 5:30 p.m. Friday. The Division III state championship will be at 7 p.m. Saturday.
A look at Manchester: The Panthers have five seniors and five sophomores starting. Sophomore pitcher Jenna Williams has risen to the challenge in the postseason, and seniors Haylee Zwick, Kate Mash, Rachel Fincham, Courtney Roth and Brooke Horning provide leadership and production. Sophomores Mackenzie Barker, Emily Kusmits, Mira Radisic and Tatum Christy have also delivered in key moments for Manchester, which won state titles in 2001, 1990 and 1979. "Our whole team has been fairly steady with seven batters hitting over .300 and two others in the .280, .290 range," Manchester coach Jim Morehart said. "We are fortunate to have two aces. Jenna has stepped up after an injury sidelined Brooke. Brooke is back and is hitting. We will not hesitate to put her in to pitch if needed, but Jenna has been impressive during the tournament."

DEMBA BA will NOT be going to Arsenal after Arsene Wenger ruled out signing
the Newcastle hitman.
Senegalese ace has a £7.5million buyout clause in his Toon contract and is
keen on a switch to the Gunners.
Ba has hit 11 league goals this season and heads to the Emirates tomorrow as
Arsenal host Newcastle.
But while boss Wenger admires the striker, he has no plans to pinch him from
The Frenchman said: "I like Demba Ba.
"I don't think [this] is the right place to speak about that, because he plays
against us tomorrow.
"I wouldn't like to put Newcastle or us or him in an uncomfortable position.
"If you ask me 'do we sign Demba Ba?' I say no."
Meanwhile, Wenger is yet to close the door on a possible third coming of
Thierry Henry.
The legendary Arsenal striker enjoyed a second successful stint with the club
at the beginning of this year, scoring twice in seven appearances while on
loan from New York Red Bulls.
A similar move has been mooted for the upcoming transfer window but Wenger
insists he has not discussed a switch with the Henry, who has been training
with his former side in recent weeks.
Wenger said: "I've not lost interest in him.
"He's still coming today [Friday] to practise with us. [Our relationship is]
very close but, at the moment, I think he has had a second spell at the Club
that was very successful.
"You have to be cautious that it's not one time too many.
"[I have] not completely ruled it out but I haven't spoken about it with him
at all."
