Get PINKDOME Merchandise!

Catty. Chatty. And Occasionally Trashy.

I hope you don't get power from the Pedernales Electric Co-Op

Because those people are misusing corporate funds out the whazoo over there. The board's president, in a recent deposition, came off like an alzheimer's patient. He doesn't go to work, doesn't have an assistant, no calender, no computer and still pulled in $391,000 in 2006.

The co-op has faced pressure from state Sen. Troy Fraser, R-Horseshoe Bay, and state Rep. Patrick Rose, D-Dripping Springs. Pressure to do what? Not be retarded?

And let me just say, if Patrick Rose is the one coming after you then you have really screwed up. That man is about as intimidating as Aunt Bea. Fraser on the other hand....I'm a little scared by that mustache.

I'm looking forward to many more stories on the Pedernales stroy, and then I hope for a made-for-tv-movie starring Mr. James Brolin as the out-of-touch electric co-op executive and boy-scout Tobey McGuire as State Rep. Patrick Rose. "Golly Gee you guys, you aren't disclosing financial documents to the public and that's just wrong!"

Fraser's mustache is not to be fucked with.
