Leading Off (5/26/09)

1. Important legislation for North Texas is in trouble because of the Texas House’s stall on the voter ID bill. With less than a week left in session, there’s still a chance for them to be voted on, though. Wick’s political pants are not interested, as he is still fishing for about three more weeks. 

2. The Three-Minute Gang, a smash-and-grab jewelry ring that correctly hyphenates the compound adjective modifying the noun “gang,” is on the loose in North Texas. No word on whether Spider Monkey is involved, but there is word she is currently Googling the group’s name and the phrase “how to apply.”

3. In Cowboys news, the DMN reported that a consultant on the collapsed practice facility had no engineering degree or license and was previously convicted of drug trafficking and burglary. And former Cowboys WR Terrell Owens tweeted that he blamed offensive coordinator Jason Garrett and QB Tony Romo for his departure from Dallas. How ’bout them Cowboys!?
