Ah, I love this town.

From this morning's police blotter:
12:20 a.m. Two men reportedly were making slurs at Texans and kicking at them at a bar in the 1800 block of Ski Time Square. Police said the fight was broken up but that another group of men was trying to provoke a second fight. All the men were gone when officers arrived.
People here just don't like Texans. I think it's because there are more direct flights here from Texas than anywhere else (that is not scientific, it's a guesstimate based on what I know of the flights here and people I've talked to). Anyway, got a "kick" out of that news story.
In other news, the talk with our mortgage guy yesterday told us pretty much what we expected as far as what we can afford house-wise, which was reassuring if a bit disappointing - there are a limited number of houses in our price range, and they disappear quickly, so we'll have to act fast if and when we find "the right one". We're ideally looking for something in a great location that's a little run down (but that we can live in for a couple years as-is) so that once we build some equity/save some money after purchase we can put some money into fixing it up. We'll see how it goes. There are a couple places out there now that look promising, but we're months away from beginning our search in earnest, so we've got time.
Back to work for me. That is all.

What kind of slur do you make to a Texan?
