School zones laws have contributed to the overall incarceration of urban residents.

We are getting ready for next season as most of the girls are participating in softball or track this spring. And that is a positive note because it shows these girls are committed to winning in a couple years.

We had to try make do without our big girl. We just got beat inside. We didn't play how we are capable of playing.

We started out good, but we had a lapse in the second half. I was able to play everybody and it would have been closer if my big girl had not fouled out.

A lot of the kids that are in school regularly do well, shown by the CSAP test scores. Those that move with jobs mostly seem Mexican, and they're not as stable. It's not because of intelligence or race - they're moving and aren't doing well, and there are other factors as well.

When I was in high school, we would load up out-of-state hunters in a 1955 International pickup truck and tell them to hang on. We would bring them back after the hunt, dustier than heck and they would give us some cash.
