I live exactly half way between WF and FW. Growing up there were people that went to FW to party and those that went to WF to party. Never understood the latter. There was nothing to fucking do there. Meanwhile FW had Northside, the University District, Downtown and a bunch of neighborhood shit to do. So fucking close. Go stand behind an RV. edit: My bad, didn't know the album. I was referencing the movie.

They have 110 locations in North Texas, mainly D/FW area.

Think of all the money you could save going nowhere doing nothing.

To be fair, they may think they're fighting for cigars.

Wichita County District Attorney John Gillespie has a serious hiring dilemma on his hands. He told county commissioners on Tuesday a firm he used to search for an assistant DA made 900 contacts and couldn’t find a single candidate who wanted to apply for the position. “I said is there a salary thing we need to talk about, and they said, frankly, it’s Wichita Falls,” Gillespie told the commissioners. “I love our community. I’m just being blunt with the situation and the legal environment we’re in.” His remarks came as he asked the commissioners to raise the salaries of eight of his assistants to $95,000 each to retain them. “I don’t think this would fix the applications, but I can’t have anyone leaving right now,” Gillespie said. “I’m just trying to triage.” Gillespie said law schools are turning out fewer lawyers so there’s a greater demand. “We’ve been down two positions that we essentially get no applicants for. At a minimum, we’ll be down four by the end of the year, and we just don’t get resumes,” he said. The grant would cover salary increases through the rest of 2024, but commissioners would have to budget $760,000 to carry the raises through 2025. Gillespie’s first assistant district attorney, Dobie Kosub, faces no opponent in the November general election and is expected to become 89th District Court judge on Jan. 1. Another prosecutor is leaving for the military. Commissioners passed the request unanimously.

This is why women shouldn't drive. They panic in a crisis. You just flick the damn thing out the window.

I could Nazi it well enough to be specific, but I could see enough to be sure.

Looks like they are going after Herd's Burgers. Jokes on them, Herd's doesn't sell fries!

A larger, denser plume currently over the Caribbean is expected to arrive to Dallas-Fort Worth area late Tuesday into Wednesday amid hot and humid conditions. A wave of dust is expected to sweep the skies this week along with the return of triple-digit temperatures. The Saharan dust is lingering around the Caribbean, near Cuba, and is steadily moving toward the Gulf of Mexico. “By Tuesday morning, it is set to reach the Texas Gulf coast, bringing into the area with hazy skies during the day on Wednesday,” said Juan Hernandez, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Fort Worth. The incoming dust will appear as a haze in the horizon, more likely to be noticed during sunrises and sunsets. “Throughout the week, temperatures will stay around 100 to 102 degrees, with heat index values soaring between 105 and 110 degrees daily,” Hernandez said.

Couldn't have anything to do with fracking or injection wells.

Sorry but Russia isn't allowed in this year's Olympics. They may participate as Individual Neutral Projectiles.

Dude Perfect can kiss this guy's ass.

This. Allred is wise to sit on his campaign money until now. The voting common clay of the Great Southwest have a short attention span.
