Found this that applies to the Austin area - https://www.texvet.org/resources/some-toll-roads-texas-free-some-veterans-use
There was also some legislative action recently: https://connectingvets.radio.com/articles/bill-aims-limit-number-vehicles-veterans-can-drive-toll-free-texas
As of now, any vehicle with a disabled veteran, Purple Heart, Medal of Honor, or Legion of Honor license plate doesn't pay tolls on Texas Department of Transportation Roads. But it seems that veterans may be taking a little extra advantage of this benefit.
There are 719 veterans with five or more of these license plates. Two veterans have registered for 11, according to testimony during a Texas House Defense and Veterans Affairs Committee hearing.
Overall, the cost of the program has increased from roughly $1 million when it was first established to $7.9 million in 2017. At its current rate, the cost of the program will be $11 million by 2011.

I always thought Atlanta Rhythm Section just enjoyed doing Classic IV songs. Then I found out some ARS's members were previously in Classics IV. Explains a lot.
Carry on.

Not a huge fan, but there are certainly some gems in this thread that will be added to my Ipod.
Thought I might add The Babys. Might be a bit more pop than power, but...
@hullabelew, aren't you a big fan of the back-up singer in pink? I think I remember you chronicling her resume on TOS.
And, of course, another...

So when cops get a gun pulled on them, they get PTSD, can't work and then sue? Really? And criminal charges are filed? Wow.
