Return to Front Burner

THE AUSTIN RUMOR MILL...

...is grinding at top speed, and reporters all over the state are chasing down stories about the state of the governor's marriage. Nothing has hit print or the airwaves because none of it seems to be true. The big one this morning: Anita Perry filed for divorce yesterday in Haskell County, where the Perrys are from. It didn't happen, at least according to Penny Anderson, the Haskell County district clerk. But you know media-types: where's there's smoke, there's fire. Heck, it's because of the smoke that I called Penny.
