Volume 60, Edition 48, Monday, April 10, 2023 World Quantum Day is this Friday, April 14, 2023. Are you prepared? ***** With Texas Instrument’s $30 billion expansion, we’ve had a few citizens reach out to us about the history of the TI and Howe ISD boundary dispute from many years ago. We did some research and found an excellent article published by Lana Rideout in a May 13, 1982 Howe Enterprise edition about the very subject. We’re republishing it on page 10. ***** Let this serve as “Notice of General Election” for May 6, 2023. What a crazy period in the history of Howe, Texas. Also notice the “Notice of Possible Quorum” for Thursday night for the candidate forum. ***** Howe’s Howe? Howe Podcast 101 released their final edition last week on YouTube after 60 episodes. It may not have drawn the ratings of the final episode of MASH, or even the ATeam, however, Jake Roberts, Lucas Mitchell, and behind-the-scenes cohorts Noah Riley, Thomas Roberson, and rare special guest Mahlon Walker have made their way into the Howe podcast history books.
