I have a few regular commenters (thank you Alan. The good people at San Antonio Daily Photo. 1 NO ALL CAPS. This results in an aut...

Strange in San Antonio: Ransoming a dog
http://strangesanantonio.blogspot.com/2013/08/ransoming-dog.html
Strange in San Antonio. Wednesday, August 28, 2013. Here's a ponderable: Is it really a ransom situation if you know the people and owe them money anyway? It might be. I don't know. But I am genuinely curious. San Antonio Police said two men intended to keep a disabled veteran's chihuahua for ransom. Charles Stone from the Southside said the men took his 6-year-old chihuahua, "Guero," and held the dog ransom. The dog was gone for about two weeks, and the police set up a sting operation to nab the two guys.

Strange in San Antonio: Van crashes into garage
http://strangesanantonio.blogspot.com/2013/08/van-crashes-into-garage.html
Strange in San Antonio. Saturday, August 10, 2013. Van crashes into garage. I said I'd be back today. What better way to ease myself back into blogging than by taking note of the latest skirmish in the ongoing war between the vehicles and the abodes. That crash happened just before 11 pm near E. Southcross and Bill Miller Lane. According to police, the man lost control of his van. They say he then jumped the curb and took out a fence before crashing through the detached garage. Texas, United States.

http://strangesanantonio.blogspot.com/2013/04/a-bit-of-whataburger-in-your-grocery.html
Strange in San Antonio. Tuesday, April 23, 2013. A bit of Whataburger . in your grocery store. This makes me kinda happy. H-E-B is betting Texas consumers will opt for a home state favorite. The grocery chain announced Tuesday that it would begin selling ketchup and mustard branded by Whataburger, which like H-E-B is headquartered in San Antonio. Starting this summer, the fancy and spicy ketchup varieties will be on H-E-B shelves in 20-ounce bottles and the original mustard in 16-ounce bottles. Live from...

Strange in San Antonio: Describing your attacker's getaway car
http://strangesanantonio.blogspot.com/2013/04/describing-your-attackers-getaway-car.html
Strange in San Antonio. Monday, April 22, 2013. Describing your attacker's getaway car. Well, this is an odd detail to remember. A female student from San Antonio College had her phone stolen while waiting at a bus stop, SAC police officials said. Around 3 pm on Monday, the student was waiting on San Pedro at Courtland and was approached by a stranger who asked to borrow her phone. Oh, wait. I meant a Kraco. That must have been a big crack in the stereo if she could see it from the bus stop. 1 NO ALL CAPS.

Painted Ocean: Thinking alike
http://paintedocean.blogspot.com/2013/02/thinking-alike.html
Using the strange power of speech . Friday, February 01, 2013. Well, hush my mouth and call me corn pone. Remember back in December when I argued that Peter Parker, a.k.a. Spider-Man, was needlessly living the life of a poor man. Because he should be using his genius for the greater good? And getting rich while doing it, thereby supporting his poor aunt and his wife? Back then, I said this:. Strong, sticky webs that can be dissolved at a precisely determined time. I still stand by that sentiment. But...

Painted Ocean: What I just finished reading
http://paintedocean.blogspot.com/2013/03/what-i-just-finished-reading.html
Using the strange power of speech . Monday, March 04, 2013. What I just finished reading. Robert L. Forward. I read this book on a recommendation from Alan at Blogonomicon. It's a work of hard. Certainly doesn't read like a text book, but it is also not the most exciting of tales. It tells the story of a neutron star upon which life has formed. The dominant animal species on Dragon's Egg (the name of the star) is the cheela, and they live at a highly accelerated rate compared to humans. There, I Fixed It.
