San Antonio

I see in the Express-News headlines that the AT&T execs are moving to Dallas. I guess it should have been very surprising why they chose San Antonio in the first place. I remember when it was big news when they came here, back in the early nineties, I think. AT&T must be doing a lot better these days, and they can no longer resist the richer social life of the big city.

This would seem to suggest that San Antonio is now doing more poorly. I was sardonically amused to read that the employees will be left behind. The execs practically snuck away in the night, surprising the local establishment. San Antonio seems unlikely to ever become a first-tier city, perhaps never even getting its football team, heh. You gotta have the big spenders.

Feline Pride

Ashes and Willard have finally discovered mom's plum tree. Of course, I've brought them to it a couple of times, but they just looked at me as if I'd lost my mind for all the sense they could make of it. I guess it is that feline pride that they will only take to those toys that they discover or contrive on their own.
