At least I don't think I'm reading it wrong. I'm looking at https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/GV/htm/GV.418.htm and https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/LG/htm/LG.352.htm . Is this an error in GC 418 or just another one of those legal-language oddities? I know it doesn't mean anything in t...

Not unexpectedly, Harris County Judge Hidalgo has been sued over yesterday's mandatory face mask order.

All but three kinds of items have to be below a $75 price tag, and that amount includes any handling and shipping costs. There g...

Anybody paying attention will note that she didn't start wearing a mask in her daily self-promotion press conferences until the day before yesterday. If it's sooo important that you want to fine us $1,...

I honestly don't understand how Hidalgo ended up in the position she's in. And beat Ed Emmett, who I had a lot of respect for. It's the bluing of our urban areas. The same reason Sheila Jackson Lee and Al Green have what seem to be permanent jobs. And why Lizzie Fletcher got elected in my district,...

Now we are required to wear face masks in Houston. Maybe it should have been go on with your life, but wear a face mask in the first place back in February. Lost some ground today. Houston Police Officers Union's response to Judge Hidalgo's draconian mask order: "Now we want to be very clear, the H...

Good news...more and more people are realizing that we are being lied to and manipulated. It’s time to end this charade for the 99.94% that aren’t at risk. Those in high risk categories need to take prudent precautions about their own health, those who are sick with any illness should isolate thems...

"The steep fall in the price is because of the lack of sufficient demand and lack of storage place given the fact that the production cut has failed to address the supply glut." https://abc13.com/business/oil-pri...

Such a bargain, but nowhere to store it. All the Tanks are full. Yep. That's what's killing the price today, and the futures for right now. Oil sitting in a tanker; has to be moved; no room at the inn, and the inns with room can say, "Well, howsabout I take it off your hands for $8 a barrel?" A goo...
