I went to the Texas State Fair this last Wednesday.

1. Big Tex, not that big. In the advertisements they always shoot him from a worm's eye view so that he rises into the sky like one of the monsters on Power Rangers.

Yeah, it's almost like he's just fabric wrapped around a steel framework. I wonder how monstrous he would look if he ever caught on fire.

Something about Not-so-big Tex annoys me. I don't like him. I guess that isn't fair of me since we have not met. He looks so damn smug, though.

If I were the dad, the story about the goat is something I would bring up later in life to embarrass the kid. Maybe.

I bet he wouldn't look so smug without his Dickies brand clothing.

The dad should totally have commemorative plates made of the event and bring them out whenever he has a date over for dinner. "You didn't let him touch you with that finger, did you?"

I love how in that video the interviewer just sounds so bored with it and that end he just gives an absolutely indifferent "fantastic." Yet the whole time I was watching it, my eyes were bugging out from excitement.

But, like a fool, she will fall tragically in love with a man made out of gingerbread who's always on the move because he's afraid that people are out to get him. They will flee across the country, hand in hand, until one day a dog jumps out of the bushes and bites the gingerbread man in half.

And here I was thinking that only penguins would be able to make use of it. I figured it was only fair that since they couldn't fly, they'd be the ones most thankful for the opportunity to levitate.

I must admit, not many people could turn cookie-eating into an epic life-or-death struggle the way you do. Poor, poor Marjolie!

I was going to hurriedly click back as soon as I saw the video was just boring science. Glad I stuck around! I eagerly await my own personal issue jet pack, which we were promised back in the 20th century we'd have by now.

When I heard that Nike had made some real life Back to the Future self tying shoes, I knew that the technology for the hoverboard couldn't be far behind.
