    I believe that the sale, loss of title and of authority caused her to be concerned for her job.

    When she was hired she stated ""This is what I've been waiting for, for a long time," she said. After years of traveling, she wants to have a job with stability."

    Perhaps she saw the sale as a threat to the foundation of her job.

    Very well written and please allow me to add a few of my thoughts and keep in mind that I am speaking about small town Texas, no more than 15,000 people.

    College introduces an individual to the world.

    For guys you realize that you are not the biggest or the baddest or the smartest if you ever thought that about yourself. For girls you learn that you're not the most beautiful and that you do not have the best body or that you're not the fattest girl in school and maybe not the smartest.

    When you sit down in a classroom with 500 other students, the professor doesn't know that you were a VIP in high school because you once painted "I LOVE BONNIE SUE" in red letters on the town water tower. He or she won't know that you once beat Randy Mitchell's 1967 SS Chevelle in the quarter mile out on some Farm To Market road with your bad ass Shelby Mustang.

    No, in college, as in first grade you become an individual who is unknown to everyone but those you grew up with. All of your prior successes and failures are washed away after all of the pomp and circumstance of high school graduation, for in college, even those who knew you before prefer to forget the past and move on with the future; their new "self". You can reinvent yourself.

    If you hang out with others from your good old high school days when you first get to college you won't for long because there will be all of these new people and slowly but surely you and your pals will drift apart. Oh you'll still be friends but in your new life, your new beginning you will want to be with those who know nothing of your past sins or accomplishments...the reinvention of yourself is more important than rehashing all of the same stories that were written while you were in high school.

    But sometimes you will find yourself going back in your mind to those four years of high school which you thought would never end and you will remember everything vividly. Names, places events all of the things in your life that got you to where you are now and that's a good thing.

    For even though you have reinvented yourself you are still the same person you were while you were growing up; you are just in a different time and place with different people.

    Good luck.

    On probation for the sexual assault of a child...anyone else have a huge problem with people who sexually assault children getting probation? And then he robs, beats, stabs and kills a man while on probation?

    Our justice system is broken.

    It was my Dad's favorite place to eat and it soon became mine. I will miss the food, the excellent service and the people who work there.

    Good luck to you all and thank you for all of the wonderful food you have served to me and to my family over the years.

    I don't "get" the design in the hair fad, it isn't something that would have interested me at any age but kudos to Mr. Dehoyes and Mr. Medina for being able to give their customers what the customer wants.

    Customer service; something that's slowly going out of style but style and customer service are alive and well at Texas Made Fades barbershop.

    What BoyWonder said and I'll add that if it isn't broken don't try to fix it.

    Very well written indeed.

    "Now the question to be consider was this self defense . The victim had knives in both hands and had a chance to walk away but did not . I don't see why Derrick shot the girl unless she jump into the fight."

    Well let's see genius...three against one. the one had knives another had a gun...not a really good idea to bring knives to a gun fight but I would guess a knife would be better than nothing.

    I would think the girl was shot because she was a witness.

    In any case the thugs are in custody but from reading some comments it would seem that some more thugs need to join them.
