  1. There is truth to it. It may not go down like that but the Tarkett redevelopment will be exciting, only so much can be said at this point.
  2. you guys are close, think summer/hicks street improvements , oliver street extension?, feeder improvements?, studemont improvements?, signals gone, added?, etc.
  3. A proper indoor upscale mall (not an outlet mall) would see a lot of foot traffic and the area would support it IMO.
  4. I live in the Cinco Ranch area. I have driven this section 3 times since it opened. Once to the outlet malls and twice as a route to North Texas, Dallas and Possum Kingdom. That worked quite well allowing me to avoid all of 45 and the beltway south of Madsonville big time saver too.
  5. Ok forgive me because I was born in 76 so I was truly a child of the 80's bad hair, clothes, everything. We lived off Reveille/35 just outside the loop very near Gulfgate mall. My world was pretty small then, so here is what I recall as cool in Houston at the time for me. 1. Astroworld - back in it's prime. 2. Gulfgate Mall - cool things. The bowling alley under the mall. The Vision Street Wear store. the theater with the pedestrian bridge over 610. 3. NASA - was a cool tour back then before they built SCH. 4. Stewart Beach in Galveston. 5. Putt Putt and Supertrack on I-45 south - arcade!
  6. Today the Astros announce the KIDS FREE ALL SUMMER program ASTROS LINK
  7. I find this hard to believe. You would have to live under a rock or not speak the language.
  8. I have lived in Houston, Pearland, or the Katy area my entire life. I currently live in the Katy area. I call I-10 just that I-10 (east or west) The only names I think I use are "the Loop" for 610 and usually with a direction. And "the beltway" for belt-8. Also the Grand Parkway for 99. I have never used Eastex or North freeway. And 99% of the time I say I-45 north or south instead of the Gulf freeway. The only time I hear the gulf freeway and Katy freeway used is for advertisment or address distinctions.
  9. That's why it was posted in the Katy subforum. Who pee'd in your cornflakes? Why don't you go eat something
  10. I don't see how charity and good will has anything to do with comic relief. I don't know where the middle of "nowwhere" is? But I go to Second Baptist church westside campus. It is between Fry and Barker Cypress on I-10. Monthly our class tries to find a mission to help out be it feeding the hungry, providing shoes for people around the world, toys for children, etc. you get the point. I help out in ways that I can. I think there are better ways of improving the area where you live than to chatise those that are trying to serve those in need.
  11. Yes the team that has won the first quarter has won every game.
  12. It's so easy a caveman can do it!
  13. It's because of the Rockets team defense. Thats five straight games holding thier opponents under 92 points. So yes LA lost the game because the rockets stopped them and scored more than them.
  14. check out ehealthinsurance.com
  15. I hope he can still hit. He has done well in the WBC. But last year his stats were bad
  16. Puma, you are a child. By the way, I live in Cinco Ranch and there is a Barnes & Nobles Bookstore 10 minutes from my house.
  17. I agree with pretty much everything you said here marmer, I used to drive this are pretty frequently. I will say though that I would be worried about potential development around these houses. I think it is prime land for someone to come in and throw up apartments especially just to the east. And that would be a disaster, I am afraid Pearland, alot of it, is falling prey to the new flight from southeast and south west Houston and it is not better for it.
  18. As I stated earlier my mom bought my clothes 90% of the time from the Penny's catalog. I had a lot of bugle boy clothes. That or I got my brother's hand-me-downs. I do remember going into Gulfgate and buying some shorts and shoes from Vision Street wear. sort of skater clothes. Skidz LOL
  19. Wow!, Where did this come from? This was way out of line and uncalled for. Did Ducky mention race, or did I miss something? Welcome to the HAIF board Ducky. Sorry about the locals. They may have been ignorant about some things going on in the neighborhhod but that doesn't make them racist or even NIMBY people. Ease up
  20. I am glad to here that the place is being rebuilt this was I took my wife the night we were engaged. Prayers going out to the family injured.
  21. I was questioning this when it happened too, holy crap look at Hawkins now, and Randy Wolf!!!!!!!!!!
  22. About the Texans today, O-line was horrible, which made Scaub put up Carr like numbers. Flashes of 2005. Defense against the running games was awful too. I still am hoping for 9-10 wins. It's past time to draft a running back in the first round for God's sake. Bright note? The Colts are losing late in the night game and Jacksonville lost too. Bad news, Vince Young is hurt So the Titans might actually be better.
  23. Ha Ha Chess King. Sadly My Mother bought all my clothes for me out of JCPenny catalog. I got beat up alot!
