  1. After 9 years of being on iPhone, number one reason to switch from @Apple to @google Pixel is to get rid of these iCloud full notifications!

  2. @USAA notified me it is sending me a new debit card with the chip. No thanks!!! Everyone hates them!!! Keeping my old card until it expires.

  9. A few notes. With the IH45N expansion, TXDOT currently has plans to completely demolish North St bridge. Nothing will be put up in its place. Sad. Anyone go to the meeting with HPD and constables regarding WOMH yesterday?
  10. Turner says he will investigate loophole. Crappy writing from Chron authors as always: http://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/real-estate/article/Mayor-promises-to-investigate-the-White-Oak-Music-7377654.php
  11. The outdoor stage faces northeast towards Main St. (away from Woodland Heights and towards the Glen Park and North Main subdivisions).
  12. The concert was awesome and organized quite well. As a former sound engineer, I thought the levels inside the venue were perfect. Only problems I heard were an issue with cars getting stuck in gravel and some not allowed back-in after thinking there was re-entry. Houston Press's review is spot on: http://www.houstonpress.com/music/if-m83-is-any-indication-white-oak-music-hall-has-a-bright-future-8314372. The exit music sounded faint walking over the North St bridge back towards Woodland Heights. Don't think it will be an issue on that side. Curious to know how the sound fared in Glen Park.
  13. I learned today from hearsay that WHCA has already petitioned the city for residential permit parking in Germantown. There is also talk of converting the North St bridge for pedestrian use only when the i-45 expansion begins.
  14. Fully agree with you. Only noted how it can be an inconvenience to people who already live there and didn't have the foresight to realize they would have the shell out beaucoup money for a new garage because street parking is no longer available to them. People do however have the right to shape the character of their neighborhood as they see fit. It's not uncommon for neighborhoods to strategically add stop signs and speed bumps to slow or divert traffic, or worse, petition the city and wrecker lobbies to enforce residential permit parking.
  15. Of course, it's fair for others to use a public street. But it's also a fair concern for homeowners who don't want to live on a crowded street or major thoroughfare. Many homes in that area don't have garages so street parking is the only option. I'm sure you'll agree that it would be majorly annoying for a homeowner to park a few blocks away because his/her street is filled with cars from people who don't live in the neighborhood. Passing cars also add to noise pollution. I've read that there are talks of closing the North St bridge during events to reduce traffic in Germantown. Hope the proposed shuttle will be a good fix.
