1. Michael Irvin was caught on cellphone video having sex in a bathroom at Cowboys Stadium. Or it was a guy wearing an Irvin jersey. Hard to tell. And if you’re offended by such material, you simply need not follow that link. But you’re going to follow that link, aren’t you?
2. Listen, you guys can rename me César Chåvez (hard to get those accents right). But can we just get over this already? I’m sick of hearing every month of another plan to name another road after the guy.
3. Remember yesterday when we told you that there’d been a rash of cheese overdoses at Parkland? We perhaps now know why. A grandmother in Rowlett has pled guilty to selling the stuff out of her home. According to the News, cops found eight guns, at least 9 ounces of heroin, and more than 3,000 capsules containing cheese. And the feds are want to seize her four cars: a 1978 Rolls-Royce, a Mercedes-Benz, a Jaguar, and a Cadillac Escalade.

Re: No. 1 – looks like Josh beat you by 8 minutes.
I am not going to follow that link… till I get home and on my personal computer.
Good for him. He probably wasn’t the first though.
Since cheese-granny was arrested in February, are you saying that the recent rash of cheese overdoses is because current users had to switch to a less reliable dealer than granny?
Granny’s house was, in effect, a manufacturing center and a warehouse. No way was she “dealing to kids” as the breathless DMN account insinuates.
Sure, she’s still culpable; almost certainly the end users were largely youth. But how much street smarts does it take to figure that scenario out? I’m sure the prosecutor offered her a deal and she declined, figuring she’d be safer in prison.
Not a single sniff of “cheese” will be prevented by her arrest.
#2 – with the city so far behind on the budget, why don’t we sell sponsorship packages on street names?
“Yeah, exit N75 onto Fossil Watch Lane, take a left at Bimbo Bakery Rd and at the second light, turn right onto Dunkin Donuts Ave. .. just passed Macallan Single Malt Scotch Blvd., turn right.. you’ll find our house at the end of Hooter’s Circle. “
Per #1: lucky they were not at NorthPark.
When we build our next highway loop around the Metroplex , why not name that Cesar Chavez from the get-go? Then you wouldn’t have to worry about the angst of renaming an existing city street.
Gotta supplement that social security check somehow.
That’d be awesome, Spamboy – Cezar Chavez Freeway running through Highland Village, Frisco, and Lovejoy. They’d love that, even from the get-go.
Do you realize that with Central Expressway downtown renamed in honor of Cesar Chavez we will have the first downtown street in Dallas history that is named after a person who is also honored with a Texas State Holiday in his own name?
