Default Toured Beckett and met our leader Leon

Posted By: davidcycleback

If visitors to North Dallas reserve a shuttle they can have a tour of Beckett followed by a tour of Leon's office. I didn't visit Leon's work, so there might be a lost pygmy tribe in one of his filing cabinets. No flash bulbs, please. You might disturb the pygmies or wake Leon.

Duly note that Texas has strict strict gun laws. You have to have at least two guns on you before you can enter a building.


* Politically correct note: Despite popular misconception, pygmy is not a racial, ethnic or geographic categorization. The mentioned famed pygmy tribes of the Congo are black, but there are pygmy groups that are not black and reside on other continents. In short, the racial makeup of the members is not a determinant in whether or not the group is categorized as pygmy. Ironically, when someone takes offense at the use of the word pygmy because he associates it with "black," he is expressing his racial bias and ignorance.

As a formal, scientific categorization for groups of people, pygmy is defined strictly and solely by physical height.
