| I believe in the principle of Due Process  |
 To all fellow Texans, and those who wish they were. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | ||

I love my state of Texas, but I love (to laugh at) even more the Alamo Security companies I see around. Do they not realize that while we see the Alamo as inspiration...we LOST the battle at the Alamo? Houston Texas, if the heat don't kill ya, the skeeters will. | |||

San Jacinto Day is a great day in Texas history as our boys: "Remember the Alamo!" "Remember Goliad!" Ego is the anesthesia that deadens the pain of stupidity DISCLAIMER: These are the author's own personal views and do not represent the views of the author's employer. | |||

I feel the same way about schools whose mascot is the Trojans. They were known for being duped and losing the war. Why would you pick that as your mascot? | |||

Then there is someone’s SUV called the Armada. The most famous armada was soundly destroyed by the English. ► 6.4/93.6 “Most men … can seldom accept the simplest and most obvious truth if it … would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions … which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabrics of their lives.” — Leo Tolstoy | |||

Remember the Alamo. Remember Goliad. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

Good grief, man! Put it back. They’ve been looking for it for several decades. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

I went to the commissioning ceremony. Vice President Bush gave the address. I have never seen more Captains and Admirals in one place. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||
