Leading Off (11/30/11)

People in 47 Other Cities Are Happier Than You. Men’s Health ranked how happy cities are based on the following: suicide, antidepressant use, and depression. Dallas came in at 48, after Austin (19), Lubbock (29, really?), Fort Worth (43), and Plano (10). Though I’m sure that list is super interesting, what really drew me to this story was the art that accompanied it on the Fox page. I mean, that’s good stuff.

The Biebs Grants Highland Village Girl’s Wish. The 10-year-old got to meet the “hot” Justin Bieber in New York recently. She’s been battling cancer and is currently in remission. It looks like she got a lot of stuff during her visit. I bet when she got back to school on Monday and had all her Bieber gear, she was the coolest girl on campus. Though, judging from the video, it’s obvious she’s already a pretty cool girl.

Arrows Could Fly in Urban Areas Soon. There are a lot of deer in the area. Many of these deer are finding their way onto car hoods. So some people in Collin, Dallas, and Rockwall Counties have a solution: allow bow-hunting in these urban areas. The proposal will be considered in 2012. Don’t worry about it, though. Arrows only travel about 30 yards. You should be pretty much safe.

  3. I don’t know if it’s still a fact, but probably is: There was a time when more deer died on the hood of a car than died at the end of either a bullet or an arrow. Mmmmmm. Venison. (slobber-slobber-slobber)
