Top 3 Dallas South Posts from Year One
Here are my three favorite posts from year one of Dallas South Blog
It was amazing that my tuner happened to be on K104 as Skip Murphy was announcing last January that Nanette Lee would no longer be on the Morning Show. I thought that this was pretty important news since the show had once been so popular in Dallas. I pulled into a library at lunch and put together 6 or 7 sentences about her dismissal. There were a few comments in the first few days, but as the weeks and months progressed, this post continued to get comments. This post taught me the power of Google with this post, because this is the #2 returned site if you Google 'Nanette Lee': thus all the comments.

#1 – North Dallas/South Dallas: Somewhere Willie is Smiling
This post was written almost a year ago, and my writing style has grown and changed quite a bit since then. The first thing I notice is how long the paragraphs are. But this is my favorite post because it holds to some of the core principles of who I am. The Willie referred to here is the author of the Willie Lynch letters.
