We lost a great Texan yesterday. Former State Representative Sarah Weddington was best known for arguing Roe v Wade before the U.S. Supreme Court.
She also worked in the President Jimmy Carter administration.
This is from her Texas State Cemetery biography:
From 1983 to 1985, she was the first female director of the Texas Office of State-Federal Relations.
I had the pleasure of working with Sarah during her time at the Texas Office of State-Federal Relations. Governor Mark White named her to that position. She was fun to work with.
When I worked with Sarah, I didn’t think much about her work on Roe v Wade.
Years later, when the GOP was assaulting women’s reproductive health rights, did I appreciate that I had worked with a legend, a true Texas legend.
I am so honored to have worked with Sarah Weddington.
Saturday night, My Best Friend texted me that he could not attend the Texans game yesterday at NRG and asked if I could use his tickets. Yep. I took my nephew David. There weren’t very many folks there so it was as safe as can be. I had a couple of Saint Arnold Art Cars, and we won the game. It was probably the best game the Texans have played all season.
Best Beatles Christmas Day ever – three calendars – two wall size and one pocket size, 15 pair of socks, coasters, books, and a coffee mug. I also got a cool “Godfather” movie pint glass, Astros socks and other cool stuff including fine wine.
I also got a record player. I still have a lot of vinyl records from the 60s, 70s and 80s that I am looking forward to spinning. The Beatles, Willie Nelson, movie soundtracks and others.
The omicron variant is starting to wreck the college bowl season. Sigh.
