displays how the folks in the Texas oil industry behave.
I worked for about a decade with Dresser, the anchor of Halliburton. I have some ideas about the Texas oil industry. Former Governor Ann Richards said it best, "These are people born on second base and they think they hit a double".

I enjoyed some of the conventions and trips and parties. No other industry I know can party like a Texas oil company. I am also not the least bit surprised that Halliburton, and especially the Dresser components are crumbling without federal protections. However, I did my best work there.

My family member in Houston told me tonight that the police are reporting there is no evidence of an exit mark in the car that Baxter was in. Supposedly, there should be a mark where the bullet should have exited the body and hit the car's interior.......there is no mark.............what a surprise!!!
