It seems to be a law of American life that whatever enriches us anywhere except in the wallet inevitably becomes uneconomic

Life is always walking up to us and saying, "Come on in, the living's fine," and what do we do? Back off and take its picture.

Ah, summer - what power you have to make us suffer and like it

Poetry is so vital to us until school spoils it.

I'm board-certified in juvenile law. The county judge sits as chairman of the juvenile board, so I can be a benefit in that regard. As a lawyer, I can better understand the contracts and legal issues that come before the Commissioners Court. There are probate matters, guardianships, and mental health commitments. Those encompass at least a day or two in court (per week).

Did we break the law or not ... it's real concerning to me and real concerning to the public.
