texting on the job

Most of us do it... but when Irving city officials do it - those texts are public record. Watch tonight at nine... some believe they're giving the Dallas Cowboys preferential treatment. What do you think?

Dog Rescue

A rescue group near Houston traveled to the metroplex today to rescue several dogs that were set to be euthanized this week. The Arlington Animal Services is overwhelmed with mostly dogs because folks are dropping them off due to the down economy. But when the shelter runs out of room the dogs are placed on a euthanasia list. What do you think? The story will air tonight at 9.

Lots of new faces

Yep, they're in our newsroom. You may see them on TV. Be on the lookout. When so many companies are laying off people... The 33 TV seems to be doing the opposite. Good times...

What do you think? Saw some folks driving by picketers honking their horns in approval and a couple driving by with a big thumbs down out their window. Meantime, workers say they're prepared to strike as long as it takes.

Demands for a recount continue. Protestors feel as if their vote wasn't counted because the incumbent was re-elected. What do you think?

Corruption Scandal

Went to federal court today to cover the Dallas City Hall Corruption trial day one... a lot of waiting around only to be kicked out of the courtroom. It seems there were a lot of jurors - there wasn't enough room in the courtroom for folks such as the media or sketch artists. So needless to say that makes it a bit more challenging getting the story.

Covering a case in federal court

What won't be reported... trying to get all of my stuff through the metal detectors at the courthouse. Well, it doesn't always work. They made me dump my water. No biggie but not my water sack! It keeps water cool all day long. I was able to get my breast pump in and my cooler for that. It's always a challenge... pumping on the go but it's gotta be done. Any new moms out there? What do you think?

Gay issues at church

That started off as my story so off I went to Bedford where Episcopalians broke away from the Episcopal church to form the new Anglican Church of North America banning gay bishops and women as clergy. What do you think?

On the road to Athens

It was about an hour and a half drive. Very quaint downtown. But must admit we got a little turned around. We were looking for the Black Beauty Ranch.. hard to believe few people had heard about it... But we finally found the mustangs we wanted to see.

How hot was it?

When you keep drinking fluids and you don't need a potty break... it's plenty hot. That means you're just sweating buckets. That's what we were doing this afternoon while covering our story. And we really shouldn't complain. It's not like were up on a roof somewhere fixing someone's roof. Now that's a hot job!

Celebrate Freedom 2009

Huge turnout despite the heat. Unbelievable, young and old at the Southfork Ranch for the largest Christian Concert. But boy was it hot. Check out our story tonight at nine.
