Another story on today’s front page:

The Dallas and Fort Worth school districts are investigating dozens of their schools for possible cheating on the TAKS test.

The schools were identified by a Dallas Morning News investigation that found suspect scores at nearly 400 schools statewide – schools where test scores swung unexpectedly from poor to stellar.

I swear, some day I will post about things other than my stories. Then again, that would require me to have time to do something other than write my stories.

One other note: Props to the Dallas Observer for writing about Crabwalk in this week’s issue. Not this web site — the song for which this site is named, which someone named Jordan Harper says is one of the greatest-ever songs about “getting drunker.”
