I watched the restored movie Vertigo last night. It's the kind of movie that is without violence and profane language, great cast, especially blondie Kim Novak, and fairly good story.

My company today announced that Mike Zafirovski, 51, will succeed Bill Owens, 65, as president and CEO on November 15th.

Tucker Anderson and Van Taylor will seek the Republican nomination to oust Democrat Chet Edwards for the Texas 17th Congressional District House seat. This time, hopefully we have the lessons learned from 2004 when then Texas House Representative Arlene Wohlgemuth challenged but lost to Edwards because of the massive amount of money poured in at the last minutes by the DNC.
