1. There will be a special election for three DISD board members – Leigh Ann Ellis, Edwin Flores, and Ron Price – in November. One of these people once landscaped my flower bed, and I once danced the Electric Slide next to another one. Edwin Flores I don’t know.
2. A surprise to no one: there could be a full-scale federal investigation of the Cowboys practice facility collapse. Spoiler alert: this will not end well for the Cowboys.
3. And a Richland Hills man is building a shuffleboard empire. Trust me, I’m not laughing. This man accomplished something. You know what empire I’m building? I’m building an iPhone Poker empire. Who is more productive? (Sorry to taunt you, former commenters.)
