Banks and stocks in the financial sector were generally down today. Investors reportedly are concerned with the action taken today in the 111th District Court."
"A three-alarm fire hit downtown Fort Worth today—"

"Hello."
"Hi, honey. Have you been listening to the news?"
"No, I've been cooking dinner."
"You better turn on the TV. I guess Matt's got Wall Street worried."
"What?! I can't believe this. I wish he were home. I'm so worried.”
