- A 911 call was made from the home of Dallas Mayor Dwaine Caraway's house in January but when police arrived they he and his wife said "nothing to see here." No charges were filed but a news organization made a request for the 911 tape citing it as a public record. In response, the City of Dallas asked for an Attorney General's opinion which is nothing more than a common delay tactic. Last week the AG's office told Dallas to hand the tape over. So what does the Mayor do? Sue the AG which now further delays the release of the tape. Sorriness. When it finally gets released, I hope its played everywhere.
- The Facebook page of one of those who died in the Granbury mobile home fire makes reference to smoking dope and that he should have been in jail the other day.
- Played pitch and catch with a softball yesterday. It had been a couple of years since I did that -- still incredibly fun.
- Judge John Fostel's son Josh will coach Eula (34-2) in the Boys State Basketball Tournament in Austin this week. It's the second time he's taken the team there.
- Bad weekend Dallas cops: One arrested for Assault/Family Violence and another for Public Intoxication (just barely avoiding a DWI.)
- Mrs. LL is on some crazy decorating kick. And I wonder if all that stuff that is in those bags she keeps dragging in is expensive.
- You think this will cause a flurry of 911 calls around 8:00 a.m. this morning?: "Officials in west Fort Worth and Naval Air Station Fort Worth are simulating an F/A-18 Hornet crash in a field behind a Lowe’s Home Improvement store off Loop 820 and Texas 199 to test their response to a real emergency."
- An absolutely fantastic -- and I do mean fantastic -- picture of a bat flying into the stands at a pre-season baseball game last Friday.
- I think Charlie Sheen is about to learn of America's short attention span.
- From everything I read about the current Texas budget crisis, former Comptroller Carole Keeton Strayhorn warned the legislature that this would happen. (And Keller ISD has announced it will eliminate 55 high school teachers as part of its 156 person reduction.)
- Paradise mobile home fire yesterday in Paris. I kind of understand the rash of those kind of fires in winter but when the weather is pleasant?

This budget crash has only begun to be funny. Think what it would be had that awful Federal govt not given Perry 20 billion over the last two years.
And our wonderful Legi is spending its time on sonograms, state sandwiches, extending tax exempts for oil companies, and paddling.
In related news, Mitch Davie reveals that he's actually Spider-Man.
Ahhhhh...another jealous Democrat/Liberal with no common sense or ability to understand the truth is amongst us.
It called a structural deficit. A copy of Strayhorn's letter is here: http://tinyurl.com/4v9w6hh
You can also google "structural deficit Texas" and learn what King, Estes, Perry, and all of their peers have been up to for the last 5 years.
And if you check closely at the Keller ISD funding issue, you will see they are SCRAPPING their block schedule for a traditional 7/8 period day. That is how they are able to free up 55 teachers on one campus. (I bet Melinda Reaves is walking around in a cold nerveous sweat.)
With Danny White as my commissioner, Phil King as my representative and Rick Perry as my governor, I am reduced to: "Dear God, what have I done to deserve this!"
Best of Luck to Coach Josh Fostel and the Eula Pirates!!!
Picture looks like a brutha whooping on a bunch of white folk. Is this at a Philly polling place, cause Holder wouldn't see anything wrong with this. haha
Can Rage come out and play?
I miss three and a half men. Dam Charlie Sheen. Wish there would just put another actor in there.
yep, you can bet those bags Mrs LL is bringing in are going to cost you a small mint! Cost of marriage and children.
I also checked fb for the Granbury fire victims. Found out all their names and saw the dope statements.Bad choices by all. I still can't imagine how six people were unable to escape, unless all were passed out and heavy smoke killed them before the fire. The son was killed and the daughter had a wreck. Her BF was killed and she broke an arm and a leg. They are telling her about her brother and BF today. Fate can sure make some terrible blows to some people.
But some people push fate along by choices they make.
Really hot girls this morning. Wish I had a butt like theirs.
No, Rage can't come out and play. Mzchief, Word and others put him in his place yesterday.
Barry, last week you commented about classic rock n roll stations and I forgot to mention 95.5 The Boss. It's a station out of Jacksboro and it's a lot better than anything else in thee Metroplex. Every now and then the DJ goes on a smoke break and forgets to queue up enough tunes to cover him/herself until the smoke break is over, but other than that it's a great station.
Thank you 8:39. You would have thunk these state governments could have started fixing their problems two years ago - did they think they were going to get another stimulus bailout?
Keller may be letting 55 high school teachers go, but they have 3high schools. Most likely not all from one campus!
MzChief sure has been using the word "thus" quite often and arrogantly. I would hate to take a road trip with her...I'd definately have to drink and drive.
Yesterday's girl had better jubblies, but this one is better overall. Glad to see the trend holding.
I don't recall having been put in my pace. All I remember is that nobody could clearly explain why they had double standards, or explain the basics of Constitutional law, despite heavily researching via the internet.
It's actually pretty funny, if you know what you're talking about. Problem is, they don't so I'm the only one laughing and they're probably still shaking their tiny fists at their monitors. Except for mzchief, who I suspect really did stroke out. If she comes in here today, she'll probably be typing one-handed, and not for the same reason that TSP and wordkyle are.
Rage
You tell em Rage. I love to see people pissed off; and, they keep feeding you.
The troll's greatest hits. "I love...carpet...I love desk."
The Dallas Mayor (acting) is trying to keep the 911 tapes quiet for a couple of reasons.
1. he called 911 because his wife was thumping him pretty good.
2. his wife is an elected State official.
BG,
Baseball has Spring Training games. Football and basketball have "pre-season" games.

I am going to give those girls a 3 out of 5 on the bacon scale.
Barry,
The FB page of the deceased man was changed. It's interesting how you are quick to judge the dead. Yet if he were YOUR client you would be yelling, "He allegedly was smoking dope ..... etc., etc., etc."
Practice what you preach, brother.
Jesus, What do you expect from a liberal weenie metrosexual named Skippy?
FYI: Josh Fostel is also the son of Cheryl Fostel.
Those girls look like they're square'n off to do somethin I'd like to be involved in.
Double fake odd man out.
My God, WordKyle, your troll comment made me lol here at lunch! gold.
Rage, the first step in explaining the basics of Constitutional Law is to read The Constitution.
And I'm not even a lawyer!! But words do mean things. So while you are reading The Constitution try laying a dictionary next to it and refer to it as often as needed.
Secret Police, Rage had you so mixed up and turned around yesterday, you were making his points for him!
Yea, babble will do that to a guy.
3:06 What points did I make for Rage?
I spent 10 minutes looking at that picture, trying to find the bat flying into the crowd.
Then I realized you meant a bat, not a BAT. Only way I figured it out is the bat didn't have no wings on it.
I thought the guy with bat was trying to hit the BAT.
Mz, feel free to call me stupid.
Carry on.
Here's something the schools can do to save money: TURN OFF THE A/C! Our chirren have been going to hell in a handbasket ever since they installed refrigerated air. They're SOFT! When I was in school, we didn't need nuthin but a fan.
And another thing: I bet them kids have LIQUID SOAP in the bathrooms, too. When I was in school, we had those soap dispenser that would pour out POWDERED SOAP! It was kind of like a bar of soap was being grated when you turned a knob. We were TOUGH!
And another thing: put the CHALKBOARDS back in the classroom. I ask my kids about chalkboard and they don't even know what I'm talkin' 'bout. They have them WHITE BOARDS. Do you know how much them colored markers costs? And the kids don't get the benefit of banging the erasers.
And a corncob! None of this high priced sissy toilet paper. Maybe leaves, if not enough cobs to go around.
My Other Brother Darryl
ps - Rick Perry, the previous statement was a joke. Please leave our restrooms inviolate.
My favorite chic pic of the year!!!! The chic on the left makesa ma mouth whaater!
Say ANONYMOUS 11:52 AM why don't you hit "older posts" on this dudes facebook and find the post where he states and I'll quote for you since you may have gone to school in Wise County somewhere...

That is genius literary skills there. Maybe you went to school with him?
Decatur will announce major cuts next week.
A must read for understanding the U.S. Constitution is the Federalist Papers. One probably cannot put much faith in a liberal parasite tenured political science college professer's take on the subject.
WordKyle best describes Rage: Troll.
Rage claims to be an attorney, but his inability to put forth a coherent thought makes one suspect that this is not true. He seems to rely on the old liberal stand by's when cornered on his lame points, that we all watch Fox News, that we receive our marching orders from Limbaugh, Bush lied, etc...
Rage is just barely a step above the Messenger's Ken Hughes. He can cut and paste a little better and tries a little harder to stay on topic.
He is probably some idiot middle school coach.
Decatur has a special board meeting on Thursday and staff across the district are worried
What happen to all the money supposedly going to schools from the Lotto?
Decatur people better not forget the million plus spent just a month ago on facilities that really could last another 10 years just as they were. Anyone who even thinks the Board had no idea these cuts were coming is not playing with a full deck! It's called "appease Story" at the cost of other needed classroom teachers! Surely there are enough smart voters who understand what to do to fix that this spring!
The Messenger doesn't cover special board meetings!
They should be able to make their cuts under the radar!
The mess is too busy building up unwed parents to cover the real stories the public wants to hear about.
