News came to us earlier in the week that the Texas Lege, in all its wisdom, passed a law requiring the removal of all those delicious photos of our neighbors’ houses on the Dallas Central Appraisal District’s Web site. The photos were supposed to come down tomorrow. But, lo, what do we find today? No photos! An official at DCAD tells me that it was a huge undertaking, taking down more than 650,000 images. They weren’t sure how long it was going to take. And the law states they have to be down “on or before September 1.” DCAD, ever the efficient organization, got it done “before.”
