Adios MoFo



Turns out the Bushes will be high-tailing it back to Midland on inauguration day.
Ahh, Midland.
I was forced to attend a journalism conference in Midland a while back and I recall the clock on the courthouse being 10 minutes late.
I also watched at dusk from my downtown hotel window a red light on a major thoroughfare stay yellow for 22 minutes.
Midland is possibly the dullest town on America.
It's the home of fat businessmen who wear cowboy boots with suits and ladies with genuine beauty parlor hair-dos.
Everything bad you hear about Texas is encapsulated in Midland.
What a perfect place for Bush to make his descent.
