My New Hero
I Love Texas
“Please, please, please come to Houston!
After Atlanta, Cleveland, and Los Angeles, I miss you guys so much!
You really spoiled me!
PS If you open a store in say, Austin, before you do in Houston, I’ll take it personally!”
How I'm preparing for the next Great Depression:
Texas needs a TJ’s. Somebody, please send me weekly care packages of cases of Two Buck Chuck Cabernet Sauvignon! I miss the days of one bottle a day (or two if I started early enough)…It involves the four bottles of three-dollar wine I bought at Trader Joe’s this afternoon, which is coincidentally not much different from how I spend my regular day-to-day depression.
Ditto!This bitch’s milkshake is bringin’ ALL the boys to the yard.
(sorry, couldn’t resist)
I WISH this happened here!!!Middletown, Ohio
“A 32-year-old woman was sentenced to a month in the Middletown Jail Monday after she was arrested and charged with chasing children, blocking traffic and yelling at police - all while wearing a cow costume.”

Post Turtle Palin
While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75-year old Texas rancher whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Sarah Palin and her bid to be a heartbeat away from being President . The old rancher said, ‘Well, ya know, Palin is a post turtle.’ Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a post turtle was. The old rancher said, ‘When you’re driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that’s a ‘post turtle.’ The old rancher saw a puzzled look on the doctor’s face, so he continued to explain. ‘You know she didn’t get up there by herself, she doesn’t belong up there, she doesn’t know what to do while she is up there, and you just wonder what kind of dumb ass put her up there to begin with.

Despite public suggestions that Tasers could reduce the use of deadly force, HPD considers them intermediate weapons that can be used anytime an officer would use a baton or physically confront a suspect.

The audit found that two HPD officers have used their Tasers more than 13 times — far more than any other officers on the force. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/5989712.html

“I guess he really just didn’t know how to express his emotions,” said Cathy Wilson. “He was the serious type — studious.”
It was much more competitive for him at Rice, a private school in Houston. Being a computer science major made his life so hectic that he decided to run away, Cathy Wilson said.
“Course load, sleep deprivation, everything manifested and it got to a point where he just wanted to get away,” she said.
