• The Kaufman County DA's office has been the subject of scrutiny pretty much for a week now. Yesterday, though, it should be noted that the county's prosecutors scored a pretty big legal victory as 35-year-old Ronald Hollins of Mesquite received a 75-year prison sentence for his involvement in a May 28 robbery of the Whataburger restaurant in Forney. Kudos to prosecutors Brian Corrigan and Cameron Cowans as well as DA investigator Randy Nixon for their efforts on the case. We'll have a story on it in today's edition of the Tribune.
• Speaking of Whataburger, best fast food burger ever?

• However, I guess it will eliminate snubs of some movies. My favorite movie reviewers like the idea, though.
• Last year, I did a story about Kaufman code enforcers rounding up signs that were violating code. We're looking to do the same thing in Terrell this week....if a certain reader of this blog would contact Tricia!
• Michael Jordan's son to quit basketball and focus on studies. Think that kid has any pressure to perform on the court? Link.
• The comments on both the Herald's and the Tribune's stories about the DA apologizing for his arrest are really heating up.
• When logos go bad. Link. (Edit: Don't look if easily offended).
• The photo above is an awesome shot of a volcano eruption from space. Here are more.
