I was going to write something clever about this news item — former TXU boss Erle Nye, fronting for 10 local chambers of commerce and business associations, warning of "disastrous" consequences if we eliminate the Belo Parkway.
But how can I top this? One of the groups supporting Nye, who is about as establishment as anyone in Dallas can be, was the North Texas Gay Lesbian Bisexual Transgender Chamber of Commerce. That’s past surreal. That’s a Timothy Leary, LSD-powered, 1960s-style mind trip.
