I expect there will shortly be a lawsuit filed against the San Felipe Del Rio school district. They're tired of educating Mexican children. So they're watching the border at Del Rio/Ciudad Acuna and watching for schoolchildren entering the U.S. They saw more than 540 of them. The Superintendent says they'll educate those children, but the parents will have to pay for it. Good for him! May we get a few more with his courage!
Paris News funny for the day: In last Sunday's edition, there was a feature article about the Gambill Goose Refuge located at Lake Gibbons. The big headline reads, "Geese return to spruced up Lake Gambill Goose Refuge." I guess the proofreader just forgot to spruce that one up. One of the photos in the feature is captioned, "A Canada geese named Thomas is one of the more friendly . . . geese on the refuge." Is the plural of geese geeses? Krista Goerte, the reporter on this story, authored this sentence: "McGee said both him and his children love the place." Remember your basic grammar rules, Krista. When dealing with compounds, break them down and see if they sound right. In this case, "McGee said him loves the place." Me loves learning about geeses in The Paris News!
