Editorial Exploration

1. Goodbye to old UT vs. A&M game

This editorial is praising the game between UT and A&M on Thanksgiving day because it is they last game they will play. "There is no one alive today who can't remember a time when these two Texas schools didn't play a football game against each other."
I agree with  this statement because it's true that no one alive remembers a Thanksgiving day that UT and A&M didn't play against each other because the tradition started in the early 1800's. I chose this quote from the editorial because it's a quote that is just pointing out that this game is a tradition in many Texas families because it's been played every year for so long.

 2. Water conservation a habit we must keep

This editorial is informing us about the water restrictions we have right now in Austin because of the drought we're in. " Austin enacted Stage 2 water restrictions Sept. 6. City water customers responded by using 100 million fewer gallons of water during the first week of the new watering "
I agree that the quote is informing us about the Stage 2 water restrictions because it is saying that Austin is cutting down on using water because of the level up in the watering restriction stages. I chose this quote because being in a Stage 2 water restriction means we all need to cut down on water and it says that Austin did what they were told to do and cut down on water.

3. Wet weekend welcome diversion fromn drought

This editorial is praising the rain we just got and saying how this is a good sign for a city who is in a deep drought. "The weekend's rain, as nice as it was, and as much as it might green things up for a couple of weeks, was no drought-buster, as you know. Camp Mabry received a couple of inches of rain but remains about 15 inches behind the yearly average."
I agree that the quote is praising the rain because it talks about how nice it was and how it was good to get it. I chose this quote because it talks about how nice the rain was after being in such dry hot weather the past months.
