So it turns out that all those records about George W. Bush's TANG service in 1972 were not "inadvertently" destroyed after all. They were "inadvertently oversighted", or something like that, instead. Still no actual indication what Bush was doing during the time in question. I'll echo the confusion of Atrios and Josh Marshall.
One piece of data that did emerge is that Bush apparently had his payroll checks mailed to 2910 Westheimer, approximately where the Chuy's Tex-Mex restaurant now stands. Ginger is going to ask her mom what was there at that time. Having married into a fourth-generation-Houstonian family, I'll be doing the same of my in-laws. We'll compare notes and get back to you.

TANG service? I didn't know he was making a breakfast drink. I figured he would have wanted something Quik and easy. :-)
(Sorry, folks, but I couldn't help myself.)
