1. A new study finds the graduation rate at Dallas ISD is improving faster than in many other large urban districts across the country. I think Dallas ISD will soon catch Highland Park ISD.
2. Police are looking into whether a shootout in Oak Cliff, in which a Hummer was hit with 35 shots and people inside the car returned fire, was actually an ambush set up by a Mexican hit man. I think our Wild West image is something the CVB should promote. That’ll fill up the convention center hotel!
3. Speaking of, John Scovell and his Enough Is Enough pro-hotel group say that Harlan Crow and his Citizens Against the Taxpayer-Owned Hotel anti-hotel group are winning the PR battle — a battle that Trey Garrison joins with an allusion to Gilligan’s Island and a joke about Hitler’s wife. I think I’m scared to think anything about that.
