@dallasnews A professor at A&M has a problem with the University of Texas. Quelle surprise!

Stevie Ray Vaughan peforms “Voodoo Child (Slight Return)” live at Austin City Limits, 1989.

Stevie always burned the candle at both ends. Then he started in on the middle. Jimi Hendrix would be proud.

So, I spoke to people getting food at a food bank and here are some things I learned from those in need:
1. Everyone donates Kraft Mac and Cheese in the box. They can rarely use it because it needs milk and butter which is hard to get from regular food banks.
2. Boxed milk is a treasure, as kids need it for cereal which they also get a lot of.
3. Everyone donates pasta sauce and spaghetti noodles.
4. They cannot eat all the awesome canned veggies and soup unless you put a can opener in too or buy pop tops.
5. Oil is a luxury but needed for Rice a-Roni which they also get a lot of.
6. Spices or salt and pepper would be a real Christmas gift.
7. Tea bags and coffee make them feel like you care.
8. Sugar and flour are treats.
9. They fawn over fresh produce donated by farmers and grocery stores.
10. Seeds are cool in Spring and Summer because growing can be easy for some.
11. They rarely get fresh meat.
12. Tuna and crackers make a good lunch.
13. Hamburger Helper goes nowhere without ground beef.
14. They get lots of peanut butter and jelly but usually not sandwich bread.
15. Butter or margarine is nice too.
16. Eggs are a real commodity.
17. Cake mix and frosting makes it possible to make a child’s birthday cake.
18. Dishwashing detergent is very expensive and is always appreciated.
19. Feminine hygiene products are a luxury and women will cry over that.
20. Everyone loves Stove Top Stuffing.

In all the years I have donated food at the Holidays, I bought what I thought they wanted, but have never asked. I am glad I did. If you are helping a Family this Christmas, maybe this can help you tailor it more. It does for me!

@mtgreenee @JoeBiden It’s Mr. President.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

I approve this message.

[Scooter Hackberry @SHackberry]

@RepPatFallon @GOPoversight You're still talking about this? Pres. Trump was indicted on federal charges today.

[Scooter Hackberry @SHackberry]

@GinaGrad Oh that makes sense, thanks so much!

[Scooter Hackberry @SHackberry]

@GinaGrad @BaldBryan @gpatricksmith @LAmag TV shows have rooms of writers. However, each episode credits only one or two people as the writers. How do they decide who gets the credit? Did those writers contribute more?

When Christian institutions fail, and their members abuse women, children, and men, justice and repentance is absolutely necessary. Institutional self-preservation is not. /end. https://t.co/nAeA0zhywM

If you’re Billy Zane on the Titanic you don’t want to impugn anyone’s work. And I don’t think that gets enough credit.#hottake

@dawnonyou @BaldBryan @GinaGrad Same. Business is business, by Bryan was with him for 16 years and got less than three minutes of explanation for the change. Meanwhile, dog/chocolate story gets 20+.
