Local Race for Hidalgo County District Clerk

Laura Hinojosa is running for Hidalgo County District Clerk. Laura is known as U.S. Rep. Ruben Hinojosa's daughter, but she has plenty of public service under her belt. This will be her first elected office. Her experience includes the following:
  • President of Boys and Girls Club of McAllen
  • Executive Board Member of Boys and Girls Club of McAllen
  • Member of Leadership McAllen Class 13
  • Board Member of Valley AIDS Council
  • Committee Member of Our Lady of Sorrows Fund Raising events
  • Committee Member of Cattle Baron Ball American Cancer Society
  • Board Member and Gala Co-chair Discovery School
  • Board Member Palmer Drug Abuse Program
  • Past Board Member Junior League of McAllen
  • Committee Member and Chairman Auction CommitteeMcAllen Internatioal Museum
  • Teacher La Joya High School, South Texas ISD, Educational Certification Alternative Program, Oratory Academy

That's quite a bit of work that Laura has done. I've only met Laura when she stops by to do some shopping where I work. She has always been friendly and direct with this lowly cashier.

To be fair, I have not met the current District Clerk, Omar Guerrero. Perhaps some day when he shops at the store.

Fall 2024 in the RGV

It's that time of year again when Winter Texans start to make their way south from the northern states. I have already had phone calls with a Winter Texan client who is getting ready to come down. I think it is fascinating that we can make friends from people who are visiting only seasonally.  Looking at the blog stats, I seem to get a peak in traffic every year. So I suppose it must be partly due to many of our friends coming back from up north.  Image generated by Gemini 1.5 Pro AI Speaking of seasons, we still have a couple of months to go before the end of hurricane season for 2024. We have been fortunate this year, compared to other parts of the USA. Although, south Texas could use the rain.  This time of year makes me happy as we finally have nights that are below 78F like we had all summer. This week we have had mornings in the 60s. While we still have hot days in the 90s, we at least get some respite in the evenings, leading to cool mornings.  Returning to RG...

The Mad Mexican

Years ago, there used to be a DJ at B104, a local radio station. Until recent years, B104 had a large audience. They played pop music. The Mad Mexican used to do the morning show with Gary Rodriguez, who is now involved in McAllen politics. Well, the Mad Mexican is still working, but on a national level. I heard him this morning on Aguila, XM 92. Aguila is the Mexican music station on XM Satellite Radio. It's great to hear from him again. He's still pretty wild. Gary Rodriguez? He worked for 107.9 for a while before going to KURV and then entering politics.
