Gulfgate Center At 3111 Woodridge Dr.
stolitx replied to stolitx's topic in EaDo, the East End, and East Houston
I never go in this store because it drives me insane. But as I keep seeing this post I just might have to break my rule and stroll through just to enjoy the music.- 239 replies

Memorial Park At 6501 Memorial Dr.
stolitx replied to themidtownguy's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
The one in the Greenway Plaza food court closed. I didn't care for it much personally. I found everything I tried to be incredibly salty. I'm still surprised they closed. It seemed fairly popular. -
We might even share mimosas with HAIFers. Is there some kind of HAIF gang sign so we can identify each other.

They are also conducting their first Galveston pub crawl this Saturday in The Strand district. Starts at 4pm at Old Cellar/Molly's on Post Office. -
You'll have to trust me, it's not that hard. The advantage is you never accidentally step in it.

Thanks for the updates. I'm still hoping for a decent Bally's. The closest Bally's in Pasadena was pitiful when I first joined 20 years ago.- 239 replies

I'd have a hangover every morning if I had to use that shower. Headache and dizziness without the benefit of a tasty cocktail.

Point taken, but I just threw up in my mouth a little when I saw this picture. I know it's not constructive activism, but so be it.

80's Soap "texas" Set In Houston
stolitx replied to KimberlySayWhat's topic in Houston and the Media
I remember watching this once. A character mentioned the evening news as the "11:00 o'clock news". I was like what the heck is 11:00 news, then realized in NY it's 11:00 news not 10:00. Way to go writers. -
Just what I was thinking. I dont' know about deluxe, but my house has the pool in the front behind a gate as well. Proudly still standing. And huge Sagos as well. I just wish I knew the architect of mine.

1st Pasadena State Bank At 1001 East Southmore Ave.
stolitx replied to SpaceAge's topic in Houston Mod
Have you been in the neighborhoods of Pasadena? Very family friendly. I grew up there and there was only smell about twice a year, unless you actually live at the refineries. It's too suberban for me, but very family friendly place to raise kids these days, particularly the newer areas near the new shopping centers. Also I got to second the city services in Pasadena, suberb. My mom called Pasadena to ask when the big trash trucks would be coming to her street next, and they just sent a truck and crew over and picked up the trash that day for her.- 160 replies

Congrats, it's a great looking house! I look forward to updates on your progress.

Actually I was at that show. A friend of mine got tickets. I'll have to check out the dvd. And just to clarify, I don't stand in line either if I get concert tickets. I meant that more as a figure of speech not literally. Kind of like if I was to say "I got the new George Strait cd" what I probably meant was that I downloaded it from iTunes.
-
Sugar Land, Pat Green, & ZZ Top. Los Lonely Boys would be good. It's not like I will stand in line for tickets. But hopefully I will know someone with tickets who doens't want these. I've seen all these acts in much more pleasing (read small) venues so I don't work too hard to go. The first time I saw George Strait was in Gilleys in the 80s. I've seen him at the Rodeo and I just find it annoying to watch a spec spin on a stage.

Meyerland Restaurant And Bar Scene - More Coming
stolitx replied to sdmarc's topic in Other Houston Neighborhoods
El Rey's is great and cheap. Is Cha-Cho's still open on Westheimer? I didn't go often but when I went it was cheap and I was full. -
East End Restaurant And Bar Scene - More Coming
stolitx replied to sir_foulto's topic in EaDo, the East End, and East Houston
My mom and I can also vouch for the yummy pecan pie. Also the Italian Cream cake. We enjoyed our sandwiches too. Nice place. -
The Galleria Mall At 5085 Westheimer Rd.
stolitx replied to TreaderCRC's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
The 2 Dillards in Baybrook, and maybe First Colony?, weren't duplicate stores though. Didn't they split out the merchandise so all women's was in one and men's was in the other. I remember it was like that when they first split into 2 stores in one mall. I hated it too. -
Ronald Clark O'Bryan's Home At 500 West Pasadena Blvd.
stolitx replied to enviromain's topic in Historic Houston
Exactly, the people I'm speaking of were probably 33 at the oldest and not necessarily from Houston or Texas. So to them it wasn't news. They weren't born yet or were very, very young. To us 39 year olds living where it happened, it was all too real.- 42 replies

Ronald Clark O'Bryan's Home At 500 West Pasadena Blvd.
stolitx replied to enviromain's topic in Historic Houston
I remember it well since I grew in Pasadena. Before OBryan we were able to visit strangers houses, host halloween games and parties in your garage, enjoy homemade treats, etc. Then nothing. I'm in another forum that is national. Some how this topic came up on that forum last year. I was surprised that the majority of people had always thought that this story was an urban legend since they were much younger than me and not raised in Houston. They didn't know that Halloween died because of a real case and a real child's murder. One girl called her mom to apologize for calling her paranoid every Halloween.- 42 replies

We enjoyed it. Not too crowded either. It was nice just being at the museum, I haven't been in ages and forgot that I enjoy it. The exhibit is interesting, not particularly disturbing to me. Mostly we found it hard to realize that it was all real. It was interesting and educational to see the organs that had effects of disease and/or abuse like the smoker's lung, cancer in the body, etc. Mostly the whole exhibit makes you really think about what a wonderful, amazing thing the body is. I'm so not into anatomy, but enjoyed it overall.

Anyone have tips for going? We were hoping to go today and I saw online that I can buy tickets for a certain time. Does that mean if we're running late we will not be able to get in? We are hoping to go today around 3:30 ish depending on how early I can cut out of work today. We're hoping at that time the afternoon crowds will be heading out and we'll beat the evening crowds.

I highly recommend any mod fan seeing Jason's home. I probably can't make this one since I'm committed next weekend to Kinky Friedman's campaign. Have fun! shannon

Uggh. Well no matter the price of gas, it is worth the trip to the DSW at Baybrook. rps - I don't think Payless has Highlights anymore. They were to Klassy for Star Jones.- 239 replies
