Incorrect. You don't have rivers in Texas. You have clebrated misnamed creeks.

THE DAN Rathers of New York and Austin, Texas, signal me that the rumor of their impending divorce is as highly exaggerated as the story of Mark Twain's death while he was still alive and kicking.
I saw the Rathers in the capital city of Texas, where they have a condo overlooking the Colorado River. They buzz into town from their nearby ranch for games of bridge and barbecue. They always act like teenagers who just met. In fact, the artist Jean says to me that the only "D" word around their house is "date night." The couple just celebrated their 49th anniversary in Las Vegas, where Dan received the NAB Distinguished Service Award for lifetime achievement. They are planning their 50th some place equally exotic.
While I'm on the subject, the great reporter Mr. Rather recently interviewed me for an extensive piece on "CBS Sunday Morning." It turned out to be quite a story, and so Dan has not disappeared from television as many feared. I don't know what the ratings are for this popular show, but I heard from just about everybody in Western civilization after it aired. And this means that all those people saw Dan Rather at his best. He asked me some tough questions.

Since Mark Twain is, in fact, dead, then the gist of this is the divorce is coming, it's just a matter of time.

She's the toast of the Austin GLBI community. Which is sizeable.
That's a she? Yikes!
I'm nearly 70, and don't know what the hell GLBI means....
I suspect it means she's wired wrong?

Gay, lesbian, bi, cross-dresser, trans, they've unified here.
"Now, after extensive additional interviews, I no longer have the confidence in these documents that would allow us to continue vouching for them journalistically. I find we have been misled on the key question of how our source for the documents came into possession of these papers. That, combined with some of the questions that have been raised in public and in the press, leads me to a point where-if I knew then what I know now-I would not have gone ahead with the story as it was aired, and I certainly would not have used the documents in question.
But we did use the documents. We made a mistake in judgment, and for that I am sorry. It was an error that was made, however, in good faith and in the spirit of trying to carry on a CBS News tradition of investigative reporting without fear or favoritism.
Please know that nothing is more important to us than people's trust in our ability and our commitment to report fairly and truthfully."
So is that a 'she' or an 'it'.....??? Just wondering.......
You forgot to say, and had to swallow it.

It's all Dan's fault!
I've always suspected he squats to pee, and NEVER leaves the seat up.

I didn't know that
According to the picture, so is she.
I'm trying to decide who is the bigger @ss kisser -- Liz Smith or Lightweight Larry King.
A simple look at a map would answer your question, had it occurred to you to do so.
Actually it occured to me that it was easier to let you answer for me :).
Of course we do have some interesting fish in them .... like 2 meter alligator gars.
