Welcome to Monday and a week that features Thanksgiving, a holiday dedicated to family, food and football.
Speaking of which, the Dallas Cowboys will play Washington’s football team on Thursday, which reminds me of a similar game in 1974. Two words: Clint Longley.
But I digress. Here are some news items to get your week started.
— A desperate housewife loses her appeal.
— A retired general hires an attorney.
— A California slaughterhouse agrees to a $300,000-plus settlement.
— A former Chicago detective gets an eight-year prison sentence for two drunken-driving deaths.
