Harold Taft Was Never This Hot
No audio. Crappy video. But somehow I'm very interested in Mexican weather.

Legal Tired Head
(Star Telegram source)
Note the last sentence indicates that he will be eligible for parole in 15 years. Actually, it will be less. The law is this: "Under the law applicable in this case, if the defendant is sentenced to a term of imprisonment, he will not become eligible for parole until the actual time served plus any good conduct time earned equals one-fourth of the sentence imposed or 15 years, whichever is less."
So when he reaches 15 years (calculated by his actual time plus his good conduct time) then he becomes eligible for parole.
Now if he had been convicted of a one of the "serious crimes" designated by the legislature, he would have been eligible for parole after 30 real years. (You can see that list of crimes here.)
I Was Inside Dancing to "Footloose"
. . . while outside Tara Reid was denied entrance as some girl named Paris (I think) gets to walk right in. (And I think I see the guy from "Girls Gone Wild" in there.)
From Another DMN Story
County Commissioner Salaries
Ellis County: $72,381
Johnson County: $65,112
Tarrant County: $116,506
Collin County: $96,471
I don't know what Wise County Commissioners make and I'm too lazy to call Katherine Canova, the County Treasurer.
We Are Sooooo Uptight
Interesting story out of Frisco. A teacher gets reprimanded for taking her fifth grade class on a field trip to a museum that had (surprise!) classic, religious nude art.
A caller to the Mark Davis show a second ago said, "I'd let my kid go to the Cleburne Museum but not that Dallas one." That sums it up perfectly.
