Dish-Rag and the Schoolhouse - a true story

Dish-Rag and the Schoolhouse - a true story

Once upon a time, there was a very young community here in De-Witt County that was so small in population that it couldn’t be called a town and was instead known as a settlement. This settlement had a few dozen farm and ranch homes or log cabins spread about, and at its center were some five or so buildings of simple construction and mostly for business. These buildings included a blacksmith shop, a grocer, a dry goods mercantile, a stagecoach stop and inn, a tannery (where animal hides and pelts were being prepared and traded) and after the people pooled their money, a schoolhouse. There could also have been a doctor’s office combined with a drug store and after enough money was raised, a church. 08/14/2024 07:02 AM

Texas accent among the most challenging for AI

Texas accent among the most challenging for AI

Some might say that AI’s new voice recognition technology has improved our lives somewhat. Now we don’t even need to touch a screen or type out a message; we can just shout out a question, statement or command to our virtual assistant of choice. 08/07/2024 06:05 AM

The Cuero Record Devotional Page

Is your life a life of contentment? If someone came to you and ask, “Are you a contented person?” What would you say? There are many people in this world today that would say, I have everything that I ever wanted.” There are also many people in this world today that would say, “The Lord has given me everything that I have ever needed.” Does this mean that the Lord has provided everything that I desired or just allowed me to have what I need to get by? The Apostle Paul, when writing to the Philippians, stated in 4:12; “I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.” How many of us in this modern-day world can say, “Thank you Lord for what you have provided and allowed me to have.” How many of us are content in our situations whether they be bad or good? How many of us praise the Lord God in our time of fulfillment and in our time of despair? So many of us go through this world today saying, “I wish I could or wish I had…?” It seems that most of us look at what we don’t have instead of being thankful and appreciative of what we do have. 08/07/2024 06:05 AM
