From 590 KLBJ News Radio Austin:
Congress Avenue between 11th Street and Cesar Chavez downtown is closed this morning as police and firefighters investigate the unusual deaths of about a dozen birds. The birds are lying in the middle of Congress avenue just a few blocks south of the Capitol. The entire street has been blocked off while crews take samples and try to determine what happened.
Yesterday in Plano, I saw a least 7-8 dead grackles in the parking lot at FedEx Kinko’s (US 75 and Plano Parkway). It looked like some punk had shoot them off the electrical lines overhead.
Outside Texas, a Strong Gas Odor Permeates Manhattan.

DallasNews.com: Lakewood Minyard to be Whole Foods
Whole Foods is moving into Lakewood, and Minyard is moving out.
Whole Foods Market Inc. will announce today that it has bought the Lakewood Minyard Food Store and will tear it down to make way for a 50,000-square-foot Whole Foods. The new store will replace the chain’s original Dallas location on Lower Greenville Avenue.
I wonder if Whole Foods will put a spa in the new Lakewood store?
Matt Drudge has a link to abc13.com: Saddam’s execution cited in boy’s accidental hanging death
Police and family members said a 10-year-old boy who died by hanging himself from a bunk bed was apparently mimicking the execution of former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.
Sergio Pelico was found dead Sunday in his apartment bedroom in the Houston-area city of Webster, said Webster police Lt. Tom Claunch. Pelico’s mother told police he had previously watched a news report on Saddam’s death.
The wire story goes on to note that Police investigators learned that Sergio had been upset about not getting a Christmas gift from his father, but they don’t believe the boy intentionally killed himself.
I hope that this tragedy was an accident and that this little boy didn’t believe he was bad and deserved to die.
Jesus Christ gave His life as the ultimate Christmas gift from our Heavenly Father. Do you know Him?
