The mayor gives our keys away... WHAT WERE YOU THINKIN'?

Mayor Bert Miller is seen here trying to express his appreciation to Charlie Lucas for choosing Navasota as the location for his new music video. And that was special...

Hell, all you have to do is come rollin' into town and puff out some songs and shoot some video drivin' some old antique cars and the Mayor will give you the keys to the city! Just like that!

I didn't want to say anything, but don't get too excited Charlie, I think that is a key to the old animal control center they tore down. Maybe it's supposed to represent something like the key to our hearts...

But it sure helps that it is a damned fine tune. We are proud to be your partner, partner!

The Real Important Stuff!

In an unrelated story, all of the city officials (who could) went to the Texas Municipal League Conference in gorgeous Corpus Christi. This is where all the City officials learn how to blow up and tie balloons.

Anyway, while there, at the birthplace of our favorite hamburger, Mayor Bert Miller found the founder, (or a reasonable facsimile) and begged for a Whataburger near you. This is just one effort in a series of desperate measures to entice the hamburger chain into the Navasota ETJ.

Mr. Whataburger was friendly, but non-committal. As in the past, he has refused any discourse until every other damn hamburger chain has built their own store here first. The conversation was ended abruptly when store security asked the Mayor to kindly leave the old man, now pitifully sun-tanned beyond recognition, alone.
