On his way out the door President Bush has already got new digs for his post-presidential life, pero not all his soon to be neighbors are thrilled with the idea of having Georgie on their block.
George Bush has bought a new house in a wealthy part of Dallas, called Preston Hollow. The impending presence of a former President is ratcheting up security fears. “I am afraid with all the negative press the president has been getting, the whole neighborhood is going to be a target,” said a woman, who wouldn’t give her name. She carried her King Charles spaniel Friday past the Bushes’ new abode.
Other vecinos include Dallas Mavericks’ owner Marc Cuban and former presidential candidate Ross Perot.

Pacquiao Beats the Golden Boy De la Hoya
7 Dec 2008
Last night Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao beat the Mexican American Golden Boy Oscar de la Hoya. In fact, it’s being said Pacquiao beat De la Hoya into retirement, even though no official announcement has been made.
It was clear by the third round that De La Hoya was going to need a miracle to reverse the pummeling he was taking.
Pacquiao displayed every punch in the arsenal, raking the Golden Boy with straight lefts that nearly closed De La Hoya’s left eye and stunning him with hooks, jabs and uppercuts.
It was so savage of a beating that it was hard not to feel sorry for De La Hoya. At the end of the bout, a thoroughly beaten De La Hoya trudged across the ring and met his one-time trainer, Freddie Roach.
“You’re right,” De La Hoya said to Roach, who had prepared Pacquiao brilliantly. “I don’t have it any more.”
