Leading Off

1. A lottery ticket sold in Fort Worth paid $33 million to its owner. And, since I did not purchase my ticket in Fort Worth, Pat, I promise I’ll get that 401K stuff to you before noon.

2. Of course folks at The Lodge are upset about the new strip-club fee, but I love it that owner Dawn Rizos basically says, well, unlike other strip clubs, the folks who come here have regular jobs and can afford it. Must be why the Dallas Observer calls it “the Mansion of strip clubs!”

3. Local internet movie star and Dallas Police Chief D. Kunkle is touting a 4 percent drop in crime in 2007, including a 12 percent drop in violent crime. Now if he could just do something about the fans at Cowboys games. (Hat tip DMN Cowboys blog.)

  1. Technically, that was at the Redskins’ stadium in Maryland and, as such, a smidge outside of the Number One Cop in Dallas’ jurisdiction.
