Have you lost your flippin mind on Carona? HB-300 its final from was Chorizo for for the taxpayer toll roads were maintained plus local gas taxes. My name is not Ben Dover to take my Chorizo. A

I guess the lawyers who buy much advertisment on Texas Monthly like the dead voting and the long proud tradition of Vote fraud.

Randy Wright I can't wait to dive into every issue from cover to cover; and I have been for the last 20 years. What a great periodical! This is what the real Texas is all about--not what the rest of the country wants to think we are.

Grammy-winning jazz musician Sonny Rollins grew up in Harlem around the corner from the Apollo Theater and surrounded by bebop and the musicians who were creating it. Before he turned 20, Rollins had performed and recorded with some of the greatest musicians of the 1940’s.

Texas Monthly Web Preview: Evan Smith talks with Houston Astros manager Cecil Cooper about why the team isn't better, and life in baseball. http://www.texasmonthly.com/2009-06-01/talks.php

Source: www.texasmonthly.com
We’re talking at a moment when the Astros are 4 and 9—the second-worst record in baseball. I’m sure you get tired of people asking you why the team isn’t any better, but why isn’t the team any better?
Alison Fairfield

Alison Fairfield I did not find Still Life to be heartbreaking at all. Skip told an edifying tale of spiritual grace in the beautiful, understated fashion. I had my 9-year-old read it before she headed off to school this week.
