TDH has a real case of the Mondays, below …
… Still lots of City Council action to mull over from the last couple of days – the vexing question of building diversity at the Austin Fire Department, fallout (if any) from council’s “crisis pregnancy center” decision, and just what the hell our mayor is doing in Taiwan. So the Hustle’s going to do just that. Mull.
In the meantime, content yourself with a plenitude of B&C action, below.
