They get caught on various things, fences especially, and you can sometimes find them hung up on ribbon wire and ripped to shreds by the relentless wind. Of that relentless wind we have had a lot lately. The dust was thick yesterday. Today maybe not quite so windy and maybe not as dusty. Springtime in Lubbock is generally pretty awful. It's a truly crappy season in this area. And rain prospects are dim. Parts of Texas are burning.
When I was attending what used to be Texas Technological College, we used to say that it was always windy here because Lubbock sucked. That's what we said. It's a fact. We said that. I don't think I ever met anyone who really liked Lubbock. The goal then was to have Lubbock in your rearview mirror.
