  1. Wonder if the gay stuff will ever stay in the threads started for that sort of talk?
  2. I am an owner of firearms. I am a hunter and life long member of the NRA. I firmly believe that more gun control is stupid. Gun control punishes only the people that would abide by the law in the first place. Any bastard clown of a politician that speaks in support of further gun control in this country should be slapped and run outta office. I really do not wish to give any politician anymore control over the private affairs of law abiding citizens than they already have.
  3. I hope not!! I like the tall towers to be built here, but never on the scale of NYC. The NYC skyline only looks good under the cover of darkness. Those amount of towers here would certainly have a negative affect on wind and wind force. Those things magnify the effects of wind and generate thier own wind patterns. I also never want to see the population of NYC placed here either. The larger the number of people the larger the chances of idiots and degenerates flowing into the city.
  4. A murder is just that, a murder, period. No amount of useless diatribe will change that fact
  5. Hopefully the energy sector remains strong so this thing can really happen!
  6. This is why i lease nothing and i dont subscibe to any creative financing!! I would like to see this tower rise and shine.
  7. Doesnt sound very good. I should hope 2016 Main has some sort of security to prevent undesirables from the bus station and in general from gaining ready access.
  8. Wow! Thats a nasty experience, twice! I wonder how many of those people are mentally ill? I have been driving by there about once a week at different times looking at the area. I am interested in 2016 Main. Each time i have driven by the situation doesnt seem to be bad. I havent been on a weekend and maybe i should to get a better feel of the area. Was your spin in early, mid, or late morning?
  9. Calling on Plastic. Where are you Plastic? This is a thread for ideas about the Galleria staying open 24 hours. Do you think it would work? Thoughts?
  10. Heres a few sites with atleast one original pic of the airport from 1969 http://rda.rice.edu/contentimage/general/06galainvite.pdf http://www.houstonfreeways.com/ebook/Easte...eway_150ppi.pdf This website is for you airport history buffs out there. Lots of little known and forgotten airports in the Houston area, enjoy. http://www.airfields-freeman.com/TX/Airfie..._Houston_SE.htm
  11. Agreed, but im sure you know it isnt just redevelopment, its expansion. The traffic here is already a freakin nightmare and Xmas time, its even worst. I literally dread leaving my home and getting on FM 1960 and surrounding main streets. Absolutely insane!
  12. I say build a nice jail there on the same scale as the new courthouses that have sprung up in the area, atleast on the exterior. Call this area, Justice District or something like that.
  13. Pssst, thats bullocks! Quoting my British friends Toll roads are STUPID. Theres nothing today or tomorrow which will lead me to believe otherwise, period!
  14. I am a big supporter of rail within the city of Houston. I would like to see commuter rail as well, but not before rail within Houston has been established. If they establish rail within the city and to the burbs at the same time, there would be no objections from me! Toll roads are absolutley stupid IMO. Just another excessive goverment revenue venture, which in this case, impedes the free use of the automobile, an American icon.
  15. I think toll roads are stupid and do nothing more than charge taxpayers multiple times for access that should be readily and freely granted!
  16. You really think the streets were so much more interesting in the past? The stench of piss and garbage i dont find interesting along with the exhaust from many many busses. I think the tunnels are a great idea. I also dont think we should limit the number of businesses that operate in the tunnels, thats insane
  17. Thats for the input. I will look into the ones you suggested, but i must say, i would rather spend 1100 on a mortgage payment and not rent. I did see the 2016 includes electricity in the main. fee, that was one of the attractions for me. I will take a look around the area tomorrow to get a better feel.
  18. Thanks for the feedback. Im going to head by there tomorrow and have a look around.
  19. Ah a local celeb. lives in the building? They havent cleaned the area up since the LRT? Im looking at something in the 500-650 sq ft range. He doesnt need anything larger than that i think. Also, what about guest parking? Is there garage parking for guest or is it surface parking, and if it is surface, is there a charge? I should get out and go take a look around. Also, does it have a good mix of ages that you know of? Thanks for the feedback.
  20. Anyone else have experiences with 2016 Main, recent or in the past. Recent experiences would be greatly appreciated. My boy has been asking for an apartment closer in town to cut his commute to school. Its right on the LRT and i think the LRT has a stop at his school. Would save me some money in gas each month too I have been looking on HAR at 2016 Main. Im possibly interested in purchasing one of the units there. Better to buy than rent. Any comments?
  21. Here ya go DJVLawrence. Fisrt the cargo service then the passenger service. You and your lady will not have to make a connection in other cities, when this all comes together, to get to and from S Korea from here Korean Air to start cargo service at IAH Korean Air Lines Co. Ltd. plans to start scheduled all-cargo service to Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) on Jan. 25, 2007. The flights will depart Houston twice a week. This is the first time that the Korean-flagship airline has served the Houston market directly........ Full story here http://houston.bizjournals.com/houston/sto...ml?jst=cn_cn_lk
