Checking My Eyesight
Riddle me this.
Lorraine in Spring sent me an email directing me to a Facebook page with something I did not believe until I saw it myself.
Debbie Riddle is the State Representative you hear me talking about more often than I like to. She is a mouth-foaming Republican. Here is a link to ten Google pages of stuff I have written about Debbie.
She represents Spring in the Texas Legislature. Spring, Texas, is 400 miles from any border and is the last place on earth a person without white white triple white skin would ever want to be.
Look where she’s speaking, y’all. The damn funeral home. No, really. The damn funeral home.
Does she know something we don’t? Is she bring border security samples? Damn.
Riddle is already brain dead so maybe she’s checking in early.
1Well, I’ll give her credit for this. If you take out the middle of her press release, she gives you this interesting juxtaposition of time and place (and exclamation point):
Join us LIVE, tomorrow, at 6:30 PM!
2Where: Brookside Funeral Home
The odd thing about this is there is a church very close to this that frequently hosts civic meetings. Been there a bunch of times myownself for community meetings.
There is also another qchurch just across the street from the funeral home that would surely welcome her meeting.
She must own stock in the funeral home and is getting folks in the door to check out the place. BTW, she,too has been at those same community meetings at Northland Church.
3I’d certainly like to see Republican electoral hopes in a funeral home.
4Been on the end where I was responsible for finding a venue for an event. But by God and the lord Harry I never ever would have accepted a funeral home if it were the last place on earth! There’s gotta be a story behind the story on this!
5Under Federal Law her meetings need to be held and notices sent out that are 504 compliant under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and amended in 1977 and 508 compliant since there is a video stream.
6I’m still stuck on how a “constable” is in a position to strategize on the crime rate. Is Spring policed by the county? Or is he the local “Officer Friendly?”
7A wee update on my previous contribution. When 2 of my family members died some time ago, the little town they had lived in all their lives had only 1 funeral parlor available. One had to enter it through the furniture store. The parlor was at the back end. Is Spring of a similar nature? If you are expecting a crowd, the first thing you think of is a funeral parlor? Tsk!
8maggie, it’s all about respect which obviously too many Republicons have nary a clue. They cannot extrapolate reason or extrapolate from reason.
As Crone pointed out, there were a number of venues possible, even in a small town like Spring.
Sorry Ms Riddle but invading a funeral parlor is too dang close to what the Westboro Baptist Bozos do at military funerals.
9Laughing. Great fiction material. In the novel, it would be the general store/funeral home/post office. Let’s see. Patsy’s Everything Store has a buy offer from a lady with heavily mascara’d eyelashes and long red nails who wants to buy the store and turn it into that combination. Patsy is tempted. The kids who hang out at her store get wind of it at the beauty shop and rush over to say NO NO NO NO, Patsy…..

What a phony and plastic looking person Riddle is!
11Bit off topic, but once upon a time when I was officiating high school football, I threw a flag on the Spring High School band. They went way overtime at halftime. I got plenty of booos out of that.

Spring Texas is a post office designation that goes from about Beltway 8 north well onto the Woodlands. It goes into school districts. It was patrolled by the Harris County Sheriff’s department until the 70’s when the growth was huge. At that time a clever constable who served papers decided he could contract with the subdivision to provide law enforcement. He and his friends would go out and steal some contractors tools out of new construction, vandalize a couple of cars and get the folk all upset. Then he would go sell his services to the local homeowners association.

I prefer “Church of All Worlds and Radiator Repair”. Used it for years. Use it when I fill in applications where “Religion” is required.
14Laughing, Micr. This reminds me of discussions at the PUC and/or Legislature when energy deregulation was being discussed. I’ve kinda forgotten details but the basics were that utilities wouldn’t be the only ones selling electricity. You might see a sign saying JOE’S BAR AND GRILL AND ELECTRICITY. That IS how we got a bunch of ah, interesting electricity providers in Texas. It’s also how we managed to get wind farms woven into the mix. No, I was not elected. I was just a noisy old lady. Now I’m older and still noisy. When you watch the goings on, it makes you want to make lots more noise.
15Besides, whose business is it what religion you are?
