Dallas recognizing the event . . .
Cue Etta James: At laaaaaaaaaaaaast . . .

Still string ties & Stetsons.
Hizzoner/Da Mayer–Now,
Recognizing the venue, at last.

Non-stop memorial coverage,
On CNN and MSN, of course.
Fox, meanwhile,
Doing agribusiness updates;
This year’s Carolina turkey crop &
Wuzzup in the cranberry bogs?
