Pharr, Texas

. . . so i was hanging around the rio grande valley wednesday and thursday, and on my way to mcallen, lo and behold i come upon pharr, texas.

who'd a thunk it was a real place.

i think the valley needs a good radio station. and what is with the obsession with "yak in the box." i thought those places closed in the 70s. oh well.

No 'yak in the box" in Chicago..?

i was in the valley for a case i'm working on that's pending in brownsville. i went with my local counsel for a contested hearing involving an injury case.

no jack in the box around chicago. i did eat at rudy's, which i suppose is no big deal to those in the south of texas. i had some kind of meat-type-sloppy joe that was terrific.

i was surpirsed by how large the hispanic population is. the people were very nice. quite a bit of poverty though. and it was a tad too hot for my liking.
