Thoughts on Saturday Afternoon

Local News, Notes and Events

Bad Lip Reading presents Mitt Romney:


Juan Williams takes the GOP to task for throwing renewable energy under the bus based on Solyndra's failure. I'm surprised Fox News let him publish this, but I appreciate the candor and wish more on the right would drop the hyperbole and be rational about energy and the environment.

There was another accident Friday with DCTA's A-train. A car was rear-ended by another car and pushed onto the tracks as the train was passing. The driver had to be extracted, and was transported to the hospital in Plano.

The Lewisville Leader published stories on two of the candidates for Lewisville City Council: Neil Ferguson and Steve Hill.

A plea bargain has been reached in the embezzlement case of former PTA treasurer Stacy Wyatt, who stole almost $14 thousand from the Timber Creek Elementary PTA.

Courts and the justice system cost money, paid by both taxes and by "user fees" and fines. They've got to be paid somehow or else you end up letting dangerous criminals walk free without so much as being prosecuted. It costs money to live in a civilized society. It would cost us less if we could be more civilized and highly evolved, but cutting courts and justice and expecting to cut real costs is like trying to push string.


Here's a nice article on the life of Bob Rheudasil, Flower Mound's first mayor.

Here's another local story about roller derby, though this is not the same league that Fluffy is in.

The North Texas Food Bank is urging people in need to exercise all of their resources, which includes federal food stamp aid.

A Lewisville man was arrested for trying to buy machine guns for a Mexican drug cartel.

Another corporate headquarters moves to Lewisville

I'm impressed when anyone can get some elementary school kids to sit still.

More police brutality in New York. Here, one of the police officers punches out a woman:

(There are tons of these videos out there. I'm sure I'm barely scratching the surface.)

The 99% are now occupying Denton.

Arlington revoked a natural gas well permit over the use of an unauthorized water source.

Nathan Diebenow has some advice for the advice givers with regards to Occupy Wall Street.

That did suck. It's horrifying to think that you could be pushed into a train by a careless driver behind you. I'm glad she's ok, and I hope the other driver had insurance.
