Your tax dollars at work

[emmitt01]

Just thought I'd break up the pity party with a funny story.

As you probably all know when New Orleans and the Texas gulf coast were hit by Katrina and Rita some of the people evacuated to Dallas. We kept them inside of the Convention Center and at Reunion where we could use the floor space to let them sleep and so that the Red Cross could set up aid. Well, all of the evacuees are gone but the ever wise beaurocracy of Dallas left behind about 150 police radios and some computers when they pulled out. So, what did I get to do for 8 hours last night? I got to sit in a room in the bowels of Reunion arena and surf the internet...on city time...so that the cleaning crews didn't help themselves to radios or laptops.

Who says we have a manpower shortage at DPD?

Emmitt- you should see the ad campaign my team and I put together for the DPD as part of our advanced ad class.

And-

For more fun with tax dollars- there's that Anna Nicole case that's in the Supreme Court. GAWD.
