Herman: A judge warns his fellow judges


Herman: A judge warns his fellow judges
We lost a Twitter treasure (yes, such a species exists) when Texas Supreme Court Justice Don Willett was elevated to the federal bench in January 2018 and decided tweeting was below his esteemed station.
All’s the pity because Willett’s wit provided a needed respite from the all-to-often vitriol spit out on Twitter. For his efforts, the Texas House honored him as our state’s first (and still only) Twitter Laureate. Willett had regaled us with amusing tweets about his profession, his family and such important ponderables as this one that was among his last tweets in December 2017: ....

Herman: House committee OKs major gambling expansion


Herman: House committee OKs major gambling expansion
A Texas House committee on Wednesday unanimously approved a bill to create what could be the biggest expansion of state-run gambling since then-Gov. Ann Richards bought the first Texas Lottery ticket (a loser) in May 1992 at an Oak Hill feed store.
The proposed addition (casino-like, critics say) could provide big bucks for the state via the powerful and popular combination of gambling and alcohol.
We’re talking about what Rep. Joe Moody, D-El Paso, calls “Quick Draw” lottery in his House Bill 817, which was advanced by the House Committee on Licensing and Administrative Procedures. ....

Herman: "Speak now or forever hold your pee.'"


Marilyn Schwartz died in hospice care Feb. 25 in Houston. She was 89. And in her long and rewarding life we find a reminder of this frequent and happy occurrence: Interesting folks often find other interesting folks and get married.
Marilyn was married to the legendary A.R. “Babe” Schwartz, who spent 20 years representing Galveston in the Texas Senate (after four years in the Texas House) until he was ousted by Republican J.E. “Buster” Brown in 1980. What’s not to like about an election pitting a Buster against a Babe?
Babe was a progressive back when progressives were called liberals. And he was a liberal back in 1980 when the Reagan wave swept lots of folks like that out of office. ....

Herman: Knock, knock. Can journalists return to legislative chambers?


Herman: Knock, knock. Can journalists return to legislative chambers?
Now that we’ve had a few days to bask in the glory of Texas’ first-in-the-nation victory over COVID-19, let’s take a look at what it means, as far as a return to what used to be normal for you.
And me.
First, you. The readers always come first. Let’s begin by reliving that Great Moment in Texas History when Gov. Greg Abbott, live at Montelongo’s Mexican Restaurant in Lubbock and unencumbered by the presence of anybody in a lab coat or with science-world cred, uttered the words that made our pandemic-weary dreams come true: ....

Herman: Houston-area lawmaker wants to tear out a part of downtown Austin


Herman: Houston-area lawmaker wants to tear out a part of downtown Austin
A Houston-area lawmaker wants to move the Capitol, which has been in town since 1888, out of Austin.
And the Governors Mansion. And the Bullock State History Museum. And, as the legislation now is drawn, a La Quinta Inn. And a Hampton Inn & Suites. And Scholz Garten. And maybe also the Texas Chili Parlor and the First United Methodist Church.
Also in harm’s way of being evicted from Austin by legislative fiat are the Austinites living in the Westgate Tower at 1122 Colorado St. and the Cambridge Tower at 1801 Lavaca St. ....
