Burger House, the best one is on Hillcrest in Dallas. They also have a location in Carrolton and a few more.

The argument of a nut-job coming on campus is not even valid. What is going to stop the nut-job from coming onto campus right now? Oh wait there is a law against carrying guns on campus...I guess they won't do it then. Carrying a gun on campus would not be to protect the school from a mass shooting, it is about personal protection. There is more probable chance of a woman getting attacked or raped, but even if she had a CHL she could not carry her gun on campus because she crossed the imaginary line that makes her no longer responsible enough to carry a gun.

From my understanding, even if this passes, CHL holders will be allowed to carry on campus, but the law does allow the freedom of the dorms to choose if guns are or are not allowed inside. North Texas will most likely ban guns in dorms, same standards that bars already have.

After trying to tone down my anger and give a legitimate response, I will finally attempt to share my view, though I know this is not the best audience to share your opinions because anything you say makes you both less of a man (or woman) and "wrong". This extreme juvenile news coverage of tea bagging and taint should be kept to comedy central. MSNBC has fallen into a broadcast media that is legitimately trying to compete with the Daily Show. Granted Fox has had its share of dumb things said as well, yet this constant tea bagging jokes are ridiculous. Mainstream media is doing anything for viewers and it is really starting to piss me off. If I wanted to laugh at how everything (both on the right and left) in this country and world is screwed up I will watch Comedy Central. The Daily Show was essentially created as an escape from the real news and is now sadly legitimate news coverage. Secondly, how can anyone willingly invite Gerafolo onto a show? Team America put it the best, along with other celebrities it is there job to read news, not fully understand it and then share as fact. Her argument was based on our conservative brains forcing us to be racist... Seriously? When you use theoretical "science" to prove your argument, prepare to fail. I will not give this topic anymore of my time, it is not worthy of it. It's hard to understand how we conservative "racists" and crazed gun lovers are the evil ones. Honestly both sides are to blame, this country is sadly beginning to show weakness and vulnerability to the rest of the world. The talk of secession always arises when a country begins to fail. Do I want to secede? Absolutely not, I love America. Am I opposed to secession? No. Every country was established on founding principles, the most successful countries with the correct set of principles will stand the longest but sadly will eventually fail. As years continue government will constantly grow, trying to control more and more. At first people will allow this, seeing some need for government control. It is when the government obviously crosses that line into a persons life that the talks of revolution begins, in honesty that is what a secession is. It is a revolution that you believe to be necessary so that you may regain your personal power, rights and ability to live in peace. Comparing this secession to the last in American history is not a legitimate argument. The original secession is argued to be over race, though race was a key factor it was truly about state's rights. This talk of another "secession" is based on the governments forced use of money we do not have. Money, the necessary evil it is, will eventually destroy any country. I am sure responses to this will quote many other sources and try to prove my "ignorance" or "stupidity", but I hope you just take this as it is. This is no threat, it is a warning. At this rate this country will fail. It is not solely because of Obama's policies, though they are speeding up the process. Yes Bush did begin the stimulus packages, and he should not have done that either. Dependence on imaginary numbers will crush us. Either the country will fall as a whole or it will be torn apart. No I have no time frame. It may be next week it may be 100 years from now, but know our downfall is now inevitable. Our downfall may not even come from this incident, though know one day people will rise against this nation with equal or greater strength. Problems will constantly arise and not all men will ever agree, that is what makes us human. I hate Obama - I love Obama. I love guns - I hate guns. We will have a new stadium soon - We will not have a new stadium soon. I just pray that I may enjoy peace at home as long as possible and that conflict may be avoided, but let it be known that when my personal life and those of my loved ones are threatened I will fight with such an invigorated spirit that I can never be stopped. I am not alone. I rarely share these views, but when I do I hope that it can be understood that those who live in silence still pay attention. That is why we are called a Silent Majority. - Michael Philip Maher

I had a hell of a time finding beads back in 07 for the tournament but I found 1 pair hidden among some Boston Celtics beads.

I am trapped IN my car.

I was pretty upset with that as well. I don't know the full story but still either way...kinda shady. Stephens threw in and "Amber is not present" but other than that no mention at all.

The US has Santa Anna's Leg Also Dr. Cambell's book on Sam Houston is also a really good read. I knocked it out in a few hours before the test, so its a quick read but really worthwhile.

Some interesting things about the fight at the Alamo. 1. When Bowie's mother was informed of his death, she calmly stated, "I'll wager no wounds were found in his back." 2. "The enemy has demanded a surrender at discretion, otherwise, the garrison are to be put to the sword, if the fort is taken -- I have answered the demand with a cannon shot, & our flag still waves proudly from the walls -- I shall never surrender or retreat." - Travis

That was all sorts of awesome.

Though the ladies fell, this was one of the most intense tennis matches I have seen since warranch opened. Congrats to the ladies, they did a hell of a job.
