Having two more options is going to be great for all of us. My son is especially optimistic about more restaurant and entertainment options.
The rest of the world is sweeping past us. The oil and gas of the Texas future is the well-educated mind. But we are still worried about whether Midland can beat Odessa at football.
In the quick-serve restaurant industry, our success rests on our ability to motivate our staff, streamline our operations and empower our employees. The applications that run on our Cisco IP phones are helping us maintain our unique sense of culture and improve our communication capabilities.

It really is a very good barometer, we think, of how active employers are.
As a New York-based sports editor put it to me,
That's been one of the knocks on me, ... that people think I'm not strong. So that's one of the things I want to work on in my last year.
They started cracking jokes, and I said: 'Ain't nothing funny when I have to work the next day.'
This is his hometown. What better way of honoring him?
Energy costs have just gone sky high on us as everyone else. Anything the school system can do to try and conserve energy we are going to do.
