The Black Hole That is Dallas, Texas

Sometimes I think living in Dallas is just too much of an embarrassment. But then a story like this comes along and I think, wow, where else could I hope to find this kind of entertainment?

That’s right–two Dallas County officials consider the term black hole to be racist.

    Oh Jesus, I…uh..I mean–I mean everybody involved in city government who might talk to each other, even though that’s not what usually happens when they get together. Usually it’s just a lunch of blackend redfish, and brief discussions of the effects of the black tar heroin trade….
