Whoo Hoo! It’s the weekend! As Marvin Zindler used to say, “Have a good weekend – good golf, good tennis, or whatever makes you happy.”
Well, what makes me happy is getting together with good friends, enjoying a meal, catching up on each other’s life, and talking politics! I’ll be doing all of that tonight with old friends from LoneStarTimes.com at an undisclosed location. And then tomorrow, I’ll be on the air with Mark McCaig at 4 pm on 1070 KNTH in Harris County to talk about politics in Texas and whatever else pops up.
Here are some links that make for good weekend reading:

I tried to call in but Mark only gave the number one time and I got it wrong. Enjoyed the conversation. You did just fine without me.
