Because All Members of Texas Legislature Have Crystal Balls
Okay, this is powerful interesting. Greg Abbott, Texas Governor, is holding a press conference on the reopening of the Texas economy at noon tomorrow Texas time. Members of the legislature are to submit their question by 9 am Texas time on the day of the announcement. Abbott will answer their questions at 2 pm Texas time.
Does the Governor understand how time works?
I know one thing. It doesn’t work like that.
Maybe their questions should be of a general nature. Like, you know, is the Raskolnikov character in Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment a celebration of redemption or an indictment of intellectual warfare? Governor, what is the square root of 298? Can you point to Wyoming on a map and tell us its capitol?
I think that would be really helpful, especially with all this homeschooling stuff going on.
Bless his… whatever. He can hear the echos of ‘Not a King’ 45 reverberating inside his cerebrum and will take up his mantle of ‘Not a Governor’ with grand gesture and comity to the other fools.
1Oh yes, please. Just to see his face when someone reads out that Dostoevsky question. Miss JJ, you just made my day.
2About understanding time… there is this: Read by Harlan Ellison with a forward by Henry David Thoreau on Civil Disobedience.

Where are the Snowdens of yesteryear ?
5Read the headline and immediately took it to mean how the (mostly R) members of the Texas Lege have such fragile testes. Had myself a sweet chuckle.
