August 29

Texarkana Texas Police have made an arrest in the Tuesday afternoon shooting of three men in a house in the 300 block of Waterman St.

OK, technically, the term "blue moon" isn't really the color blue, but according to Space.com, the blue moon refers to the second full moon in any given month. August has two, Tuesday and Wednesday night is the second full moon of the month, so it is the Super Blue Moon of August 2023.

One industry that just keeps getting bigger every year is aviation, so what is in high demand right now and in the future of aviation? Pilots and Airframe and Powerplant Mechanics. Texarkana College has announced a new partnership with Texarkana Regional Airport and will soon begin training new A&P Mechanics right here in Texarkana.

On the fourth week of August, AC units are going belly up all over the Ark-La-Tex, no shocker there, the grass is crunchy and most people are too hot to worry about expending the anger energy. I said most, not all. Your Bowie County Sheriff's Office took in a total of 58 people last week. BCSO Deputies arrested 28 of those, and other area law enforcement agencies arrested 30.

Numbers 1 and 2 both made sense to me personally, but my state, the Great State of Texas came in at number 3 on the list of the Most Sinful States in America. I couldn't believe it.
