there, that Arab Americans danced in the streets in joy somewhere in New Jersey watching the towers fall.

We have friends who right now think this is all panic driven hysteria. In that between them they barely have a full set of teeth its a safe assumption there isn't more than one complete brain between them, too. Its finally gotten here in the Hill Country. There's no denying it.

But then there's Tom and Renee, amateur epidemiologists and roofers.

You can't fix stupid, but the guy can lay shingles straight and quick.
