Leading Off (12/31/10) The They Say 2011 Will Be Better Edition

|

1. So you probably had plans of imbibing tonight, because it’s New Year’s Eve and that’s what people do. And then you probably thought you’d take a cab. Only now, maybe not. Maybe you’ll drive. But then there’s this. So maybe you should just go ahead and make that stop for the big bottle of Colt 45 and plan to watch some Dick Clark.

2. A family owned popcorn store in Frisco is locked in a David versus Goliath fight or something with some place called the Popcorn Factory over a logo and a name or something. Ironically, the bone of contention centers around the phrase, “Love, Peace and Popcorn.”

3. Former Maverick Nick Van Exel’s son, Nickey Van Exel, confessed to killing a longtime friend. He says they were messing around with a gun he thought was unloaded, and he accidentally shot him, and then panicked and drove the body to Lake Ray Hubbard. The victim’s father isn’t believing it so much.

4. Get well soon, Dirk. Really, really soon. Please?

5. Any plans for New Year’s Eve? Maybe some dancing? Maybe some couch surfing? Maybe some quaffing of many adult beverages? Stay safe out there, FrontBurnervians, and have a great New Year.
