Oakland is a tight knit community. Always been a network of people who are active in trying to make The Town better. These folks work in the schools, businesses and non-profits and make Oakland special. John Beam was one of those special people. May his memory forever be a blessing. #JohnBeam

Good morning and it’s Election Day in these parts! Please get out and vote. If you live in Prosper, there are important bond measures that we need passed. Our town is growing and we need the roads and facilities!

Who, in their right mind, would take the LSU football head coach job? You have to answer to whatever political hack gets elected to the governor's office. A turkey who may not know if whether a football is blown up with air or stuffed with feathers! www.nytimes.com/athletic/676...

Not all of our fellow citizens who work for our government are sitting idle. While the political pettiness and message points war is happening, one IRS attorney is living out his dream and opened a hot dog stand in Washington, DC. www.businessinsider.com/irs-lawyer-s... #GovernmentShutdown
This furloughed IRS lawyer has a new side gig: running a hot dog stand
Isaac Stein, a 31-year-old IRS lawyer, was furloughed during the government shutdown. He's used his newfound free time to run a hot dog stand.
