I’m not sure I know anyone living in Texas with a boring and slow pace of life, things are busy and there is always something else to accomplish. But it feels like we all need to slow down a bit and, in this instance, maybe look at some of the crazy things around us including some of the laws that are still on the books here in Texas.

I don’t think that is a necessity anymore, but I could be wrong.
