- The unvaccinated who insist on "taking their chances" will certainly get that opportunity as Omicron has just been added to their schedule. Everyone is going to be exposed to it. (It's still yet to explode in Texas, but it will.)
- The kid involved in the wrong way driver crash out of Rhome lives in Northlake, but he must have some kind of Wise County connection. He was previously arrested by the Sheriff's office for "Minor in Consumption - Alcohol" on March 27, 2021.
