I’ve been debating whether or not to tell this story ‘cause it’s really off-topic but the coincidence is just too bizarre to keep it to myself. When I was in college in the late seventies, the fiancée of one of my sorority sisters was arrested for murdering his teenage neighbor. He strangled...

Don’t know if your question has been answered but I get text notifications when the DD driver arrives at the restaurant, leaves with the order, is approaching my house, and drops it at the door. sometimes they ring the bell and sometimes they don’t. You can also put in special instructions for...

For what it’s worth I was stopped for the first time ever in my life for speeding in my home state (Texas) and was asked where I was coming from and where I was going even though I was a 60-year-old woman with her 60-year-old husband. Of course, I was hopping’ mad I had been stopped and he knew...

The floor plan you have is old. If you’ll watch the video in post #4 of this thread, you can see the updated floor plan with corresponding photos. It will really help you understand everything.

Missing 1-year-old Austin child found safe

APD just tweeted that a person of interest has been identified. No other information.

I realized earlier today that Joe Griffith's wife babysat my boys when she was a teenager and they were in elementary school. She was a lovely young girl and I am heartbroken for her and her two young children. I have not spoken with her in many years but somehow just personally knowing someone...

I grew up in Odessa, returned in 1984 after graduating from UT Austin and lived there for another 25 years before moving back to Austin in 2009. This is surreal for me. I am waiting on pins and needles to hear the names of the fatalities and injured. No matter whether I know them or not, they...

Sorry Cariis, Ken Paxton definitely doesn't have one...a brain, that is. Either his statement is wrong or he divulged info he shouldn't have, either proves my first remark. Edit: for some reason, Cariis' post about Ken Paxton having a brain didn't show up on my reply

I work in the public schools and was just coming to grips with increased security and active shooter drills. Now I have this in my hometown. At first I wasn't too concerned but I feel the person doing this is almost out-of-control now and I'm afraid for myself and my family. One of my sons lives...

I just got a KXAN notification of a package explosion at a Goodwill in South Austin.

I just got notification from KXAN they've been found safe. http://http://kxan.com/2018/01/03/abducted-round-rock-girls-found-safe-in-colorado-suspect-in-custody/ ETA: Well, it's such good news I guess it doesn't hurt to hear it from several people! :loveyou:

I heard about this organization through a radio ad about a fundraiser a local furniture/design company was having and found this MSM article about it. This is an amazing organization. You can find out more by going to their website. These girls re finally being given a chance. I hope they are...

Those may have been doors to the baptistry only. I think it's called the baptistry. I'm Methodist and we "sprinkled."

No link since it's on the TV but MSNBC just said he was court-martialed in 2012 for assault on his wife and assault on his child and received a bad conduct discharge.

This part of the quote from the Daily Mail is definitely a lie so you have to question the intent of the article as a whole.

The public school provides services starting at age 3. The type of services offered vary depending upon the severity of the disability. They range from speech therapy only with parent transportation all the way to the PPCD classes I mentioned in a previous post. Different districts vary some but...

In Texas, Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) serves the 0-3 population and employs their own, i.e., separate from public school, therapists. It does get confusing from state to state.

It's hard to know without more information. She may just be language-delayed and not completely nonverbal. In that case, finger plays, nursery rhymes, and songs would be easier for her than utterances she has to generate herself. On the other hand, children with autism that are non-verbal...

School districts do not offer home visits for free unless the child is "home bound" and unable to attend school due to a medical condition. She would have probably been eligible as a 3-year-old with a severe developmental disability to attend a Preschool Program for Children with Disabilties...
