Houston news report #2 - May 2008

I hadn't posted this yet. Here's a couple news stories from a couple months ago.

You can't make this stuff up.

3 Kingwood teens accused of abusing corpse
"Kevin Wade Jones, 17, and Matthew Richard Gonzalez, 17, both of Kingwood, told Houston police that around March 15 they and a 16-year old juvenile dug up a grave, removed the skull from the coffin and converted it into a "bong," a device used to smoke marijuana, according to court documents."

Not in Texas, but no less ridiculous. Jim Bob has been gettin' busy.

I bet Eight Belles would be delicious. Short article, but two quotes from this one.
" 'Mexico kills horses, whether we like it or not, and people in France eat them. And sometimes the slaughterhouses like to ship the meat out of Corpus or Houston,' Chisum said."
"American Airlines has stopped shipping horse meat from Texas, said airline spokesman Tim Wagner."

“the Sinkhole de Mayo,” People in East Texas are pretty clever with their nicknames.
