Well, this certainly looks like fun for all you hooter toters out there.  I just reserved a free lifestream to watch.

The Golden Probe Awards – it look a little raunchy but certainly fun.

Tarleton State University, a part of the Texas A&M system, allows campus carry at the insistence of the Texas Legislature so that Texas college and university students can be safer.  Seems to be working so far.

A student at Tarleton State University accidentally fired a gun at a campus residence hall Wednesday, officials said.

The student, who is trained and licensed to carry, reported accidentally discharging a firearm about 6:30 p.m. in Integrity Hall, a co-ed dorm that primarily houses second-year students, university spokesman Harry Battson said.

There were no injuries, and property damage was “minimal,” he said.

Because guns make you just a tad safer than walking into a lion’s den with pork chops in your back pocket.

Any class that I have comes from my friend Pam, one of the classiest women I know.  Pam was among some of the first African Americans admitted to the University of Texas.  I am honored to call her my friend.  We have been known to get into trouble together.

Pam is a voter registrar for the League of Women Voters, where she has met “some characters” she has come to love.  Today she forwarded me an email from one of her fellow registrars, a woman Pam describes as a little, tiny, blue haired lady from Houston.  Pam tells me that this lady, who we will call Mary, might be 5 foot tall if she got up on a step ladder.

Mary registered voters yesterday at Texas Southern University, a Historically Black University in Houston.   She had some parking difficulties and called Pam for help.  Pam made a few calls and got her a place to park near a dormitory. She reported back to Pam as follows.  Enjoy!

Pam,

What an interesting day today turned out to be! After a confusing beginning, I stayed at the boys side of the dorm (I had gotten in that side by chance). Oscar, the young man who let me in and my new best friend, helped me register some of the guys who came and went. He explained that he had worked with Tony the day before going from room to room registering voters. He was terrific at rounding up some who hadn’t registered yet. There was also an enthusiastic young man in a Hillary tee shirt who helped for awhile.

Then I went to the cafeteria for awhile and registered a few people there, including Carlos, the chef — at least he was wearing a chef jacket and had some kind of authority there. Then I went back to the dorm side and registered some more, including Bob, the Security Guard (who insists he is moving to Canada if Trump is elected). (No, I did not talk partisan politics with him.) Finally, Tony arrived and gave me 132 completed applications that he and someone named Robert had registered. It turned out that they had had their own deputy voter registrar training there in the dorm. Tony is a campus activist. (I forgot to ask if they were working the girls” wing of the dorm.)

So — then I went to the Harris County substation near me and turned in my 19 applications plus 132 that Tony had gotten the day before. I stood in line with a voter registrar from Mi Familia Vota who was turning in applications. They are working so hard — following up to make sure these people actually vote and teaching them the importance, etc.

So — now I’m taking a nap. I have two registrations for Battleground Texas tomorrow (Art Institute and a local HS) and one Friday.

Then I will go to Everest Institute – Hobby for the League on Monday! Jim Adler Law Firm Tuesday — will you send me contact info there? And Naturalization Wednesday.

Mary

Mary drinks a cup of spunk for breakfast every  morning. When I grow up, I want to be Mary.

Thanks to Pam for the heads up.

Tuesday, September 20th, 10:00 am ET, Senator Elizabeth Warren gets to question Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf about the fake accounts.  It will be on CSPAN when the House Banking Committee meets, although Thelma says that this will be such big game that ESPN ought to cover it.

By the way, Senator Warren isn’t the only one a tad upset.

After meeting Tuesday with Wells Fargo President Tim Sloan, Rep. Elijah Cummings, the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee, requested a batch of documents on the bank’s sales practices and the salaries and positions of those fired for improper sales tactics.

Cummings also asked Wells Fargo to justify the huge $124 million in stocks and options that community banking head Carrie Tolstedt is set to walk away with when she retires at the end of the year. Tolstedt led the division that created millions of fake accounts, and Cummings asked if her pay will be “clawed back.”

She needs to be in jail, dammit.

Thanks to Bryan for the heads up.

Okay, headline.

Why didn’t Clinton release her’s to Dr. Seuss?

Yeah, Dr. Oz, right.
