1. I don’t have kids, so I don’t know how one goes about teaching the birds and the bees. However, I’m guessing that waking children in the middle of the night and showing them porn is not the way to go about it. But, apparently, that’s legal.
2. Since moving downtown, a couple co-workers have had some problems with vandals and their cars. We all know about Glenn’s fiasco. Another co-worker had her plates stolen while her car was at a West Village garage. Maybe these new security cameras in Uptown will bring peace of mind to anyone who parks there. If nothing else, they look pretty snazzy.
3. Tim told you about Newt Gingrich’s group awarding the owner of The Lodge with an “Entrepreneur of the Year” award. Well. Here’s the latest news on that. The award was revoked, and the entry fee money ($5,000) goes back to the owner, Dawn Rizos. Rizos has decided to take that money and donate it to an animal group in Celina. They’re naming it Newt’s Nook – A Home for Pit Bulls.

“”We don’t need it, it’s wasted money I think that could go to something else maybe improve the school or playgrounds” says resident Tony Torres.”
If Mr. Torres is so concerned about the state of playgrounds and schools in the neighborhood the William B Travis PTA is currently raising money to improve their school playground and I am sure would be delighted to accept his check. I suspect he is more interested in spending other people’s money on those kind of improvements than his own though.
I think The Lodge deserves the award for all the work they’ve done helping single mothers.
“Just knowing the cameras are there and i want to walk out to my car and its unsafe – knowing those cameras are there – yeah, they’re going to catch you buddy, so just try it”
Oh really Kimberly?
Since moving downtown, some of you have had car troubles at places other than downtown? The horror!
Now, I’m no expert, but number 2 just don’t make much sense. The Gingerbread fella is right. Why would a downtown office location make a lick of difference about vandalism happening in other places?
