when it comes to kendall, a text is worth a thousand words... they're pretty good.

i have a brother named kendall who has a cell phone. kendall's cell phone has text messaging capabilities. kendall likes to send burst text messages to the greater cooper family once or twice a day. these texts can be very informative especially if you are into james bond, the lakers, the unlv rebels basketball team, star wars, indiana jones, video games and their systems, the a team and comics. unfortunately, uncle k has been looking for a job and has had a little too much extra time on his hands to come up with random texts.

apparently, they are now posting want ads and potential job inquiries on commanderbond,net and other similar message board websites because k-dog sure seems to rack up a lot of gossip that could only be learned after spending significant amounts of time on such sites. more power to you, bud... whatever floats your boat. but, sometimes i just have to laugh at kendall's texts because of the complete randomness of their content. i love getting them because it's always a surprise to see what he's come up with. i find kendall's texts so entertaining that i feel guilty just keeping them all to myself... well, such secrecy will be no more.

with that, i am going to share with you some of the text messages i have received from my dear brother since i am sure that deep in his heart he knew that when he originally sent what he thought would be private texts to his brother that they might in fact end up on the front page of a critically acclaimed blog for all the world to see some day. so, it's all good.

unlv should get tark for their athletic director. wouldn't that be a great idea?

did you know that christpher walken was george lucas' second pick to play han solo?

sometimes i get caught up in the spirit of kendall's texts and reply. in the case of the han solo text, i wasn't about to be one-upped, so i threw down an interesting tidbit of my own. my reply:

did you know that they are making a deadpool and green lantern movie and that the guy who played deadpool in the wolvering movie is playing deadpool and green lantern?

just in case you were wondering, the actor who played hanibal in the original a-team series died several years ago.

why yes, i was wondering about that kendall. thank you for feeling me in. anyway, i just the world should get a glimpse of my brother's greatness. keep on keeping strong with the texts, k-dog. i look forward to being in the middle of a client meeting only to feel my phone vibrate and then check it only to find out that one of the actors considered to replace sean connery as james bond was turned down because ian flemming didn't approve.

in all seriousness, kendall's texts are... pretty good. pretty good is kendall's default response to any question you might ask him that attempts to elicit his feeling on something.

jeremy: kendall, how was your study abroad trip to england?

kendall: pretty good.

jeremy: kendall, how was your date last night?

kendall: pretty good.

jeremy: kendall, how was the movie you just watched?

kendall: pretty good.

jeremy: kendall, how was your graduation from byu idaho?

kendall: pretty good.

so, as you can see, with the texts, we tend to get a lot more detail out of k-dog regarding his feelings towards certain things. in other words, it's been a pretty good way to get to know him a little better. so, don't let up now.

although, i hope you have an unlimited text messaging plan.
