re: #125 darthstar

I lived in Waco for several years. I was there during the Branch Davidian ‘event’, and while I {now} despise conspiracy theory thinking, I can’t help but remember that the Waco Tribune Herald ran a week-long story called “The Sinful Messiah” which was all about David Koresh and the supposedly salacious goings-on at Mount Carmel, and it just ever-so-conveniently happened to conclude on the day of the ATF raid..

Waco was also the site of a particularly heinous moment in human history that you would find laughably unbelievable if presented as a work of fiction.

I go to Waco every 3 or 4 years to visit family, and every time I am overwhelmed with unexpected nostalgia because the entire city somehow manages to resist changing.
