I'm fine with it as long as they are only pulling over people coming from south of the Buckner/Ferguson intersection whose cars need some body work or have too much body work.

Ummm... So... Lets say I'm a very lazy stalker/rapist/mugger/bad guy.
Does this mean I can just lay down on a bench in the dark with a beer and just wait for some motion detecting lights to come on? And wouldn't lights going on and off no matter where they are pointed be allot more annoying than ones that just stay on.
Dallas is Growing and shows no signs of shrinking. White Rock cannot remain as it was and is simply going to have to keep up with the inevitability that it will have to deal with more people. Light the Trail. All of it. It will save lives and deter crime.

There was nothing in the master plan about the Sun illuminating the park either. Should we now go and remove that too? I agree with xdavidwattsx. Why all this stubbornness to implicitly follow 'The Plan?' Whats done is done and I think the park has been improved for it. I also agree that I would use the park more when better illuminated. I get off work at 6 (fairly early) but during fall through spring, it is too dark. Why spend effort to tear down what is done and enjoyable. If the contractor over stepped the 'Big Plan' then don't pay them. Changes and improvements at White Rock Lake should not have to be OK'ed or approved by the residences who live around the lake. If they don't like the Lake being illuminated, they should move. It is for all Dallas citizens and its usage should be encouraged at all times of the day. If you want an 'intrinsically dark shoreline' then perhaps you should go to a lake that is not smack in the middle of the 4th largest metropolitan area. This move IS regressive.

@Clay Got your point. If you don't care, why are you writing on blogs about it? …..Twice. I myself am fascinated by how the media in almost all areas whether it be sports, weather, or politics, continues to behave like lazy sheep. The lack of independent thought or thorough investigation by so-called ‘journalists’ is sad. This is the most investigative piece I have seen or heard on Mr. Jones in all of national and local media. I think this particular issue, serves as a microcosm as to how journalism operates these days. One reporter reads an AP Post, and just extrapolates from it rather than doing their own individual work. Pitiful.

@ Clay213
What the hell does it matter what kind of money, a guy makes? If you’re jealous, then why don’t you try out for the Dallas Cowboys and quit serving up a persons income as to how they are to be judged? It is refreshing to see a sensible article written on this man. I totally agree with you, Mr. Henson as opposed to such media big heads like Mr. Dale Hansen, ESPN, and every other fool who hops on any lazily traveling bandwagon that comes along. Pac Man is here to play football, period; and not to be a priest. After today’s performance with the Rams, I for one would have loved to have seen Pacman out there on defense no matter what the guy’s personality is off the field. There is no harm, no foul in this incident, only overreaction by people who never saw anything or were even present at the hotel.

The Statue of Liberty was given to us by the French and they ran the naval blockade to keep the British out during the Revolutionary War so I suppose this is OK.

These shows are edited to create friction and drama. 'Reality' is a misnomer but you can't call reality shows 'Lets shoot everything around random people then cut, paste, and edit some stuff together for a 30 minute show so that we dont't have much production costs' shows. Perhaps 'Editing Shows' would be more appropriate. Mr. Garza shouldn't worry. The smarter viewer knows that they are leaving allot of her character out on purpose. Probably for some editing reason.

I just really hope that the develpoer will build some ugly ass "3r's" type place that looks squared off and contains a brand new Starbucks in the bottom. In fact, I wish for the whole world to look like West Village and Disneyland.

Because Horse are a 'working animal' their meat is usually very tough and not great on taste. But I guess anything can be great wrapped in Bacon.
