The Brookshires Wildlife Museum is having a big event of family fun Wednesday April 11at 10am.
There will be a free concert, free ice cream, and a free T-shirt for each person who comes.
The event is in celebration of the dedication of the 1952 La France Firetruck. You’ve probably seen the firetruck in the playground.
It has been given a fresh coat of paint and looks nice. If your children are interested in firefighting like my son, you will want to bring them.
The actual original firefighters that drove this firetruck are dedicating it in person.
They are from the Dallas fire department. They will be telling some personal stories from when they went to fight fires in this 1952 firetruck.
I can imagine that it will be quite inspirational and educational. Come visit the Tyler Brookshires Museum tomorrow. Admission is free.
Texas Rangers not allowed to put midget on their team
January 23rd, 2011Texas Rangers are not allowed to draft or recruit midgets to play on their baseball team.
Due to a rule established in 1951 when the St. Louis Browns were able to obtain an easy walk by placing a midget at the plate to bat this trick is no longer an option.
So power sluggers like Josh Hamilton, Michael Young, and Kinsler will have to make things happen at the plate in more conventional ways and forget about using midgets to gain extra runs.
What do you think? Is this a bad discriminatory baseball rule? Is this rule similar to women not being allowed in some states to be firefighters because of weak upper body strength?
When are discrimentory laws and rules crossing the line into the realm of lunacy politically correct liberal land? Even many midgets and women can understand why rules and laws like these exist but PR propaganda has a strangle hold on about half the population in America.
