  1. There was also a Gold's Gym close to the Bealls. It was owned by the same guys that owned that pizza joint at the seawall and broadway... I forget the name. I used to work out there every day while I was a waiter at Gaido's... nearly 3 years of it. After working out I would go eat at either the mall cafeteria or go to Luby's up on 61st street.

    -bought a cheezy italia summer suit at some shop next to GNC in 1991, very guido

  2. Memorial Bend is zoned to Memorial High, Memorial Middle, and Rummel Creek Elem. All are great schools and the Bend isn't crazy overpriced like much of the 77024 zip area. Although I believe there are even less expensive homes bordered by I-10, Beltway-8, Gessner, and Memorial. They are probably zoned to Frostwood Elementry.

  3. No information on this one for some time. Any new info?

  4. No McHard and Cullen do not intersect. That area is pretty fubar'd in the morning. I use the BW8>Cullen>518 route alot.

  5. Burlington is another great outfit. They bought up Louisiana Land and Exploration which makes BR one of the biggest onshore players in Louisiana for oil and gas... and that is saying something.

    Both Burlington Resources and El Paso Natural Gas are spin-offs of Burlington Northern RR.

  6. Yep, my favorite house in houston. Lose the putting green and it would be perfect. It used to be going for 1.7m, at 1.575 I'll have to ponder it again (guffaw!)... Unfortunately I think just the taxes on that place would break me.

    (there was a good amount of enron memorabilia laying around when I did the walk through... made me stop and think) ;)
