  1. It is horrible. I don't like to criticize others work,but this is awful.
  2. I do also. This house in my opinion,seems to have been very well maintained. There are other options that could be taken here. The front could use some updating. The kitchen could be modernized,rather than gutted. This house does not need to be flipped in my opinion.
  3. I love the bathrooms also. When it gets flipped,that will have to go. I could surely not be the one to tell the subs to destroy them.
  4. I wish I could have seen the exhibit. In general,most architects are very interesting,and very cool people. The imagination involved in designing is a gift that very few people have. NOW,SO many people rely on CAD. My dad would design,and then make a model of what he wanted to achieve. I think you did a very good job,on reporting about the exhibit. THANK YOU!!!
  5. It was areally good game.Dalas did well also. The new coach for the TEXANS is from Houston.
  6. I know exactly where that home is My dad loved it I know exactly where this house is.My dad loved it
  7. The house he grew up in was donated to Rice.That's where he went to college. He,did not graduate.He dropped out. Hughes Tool still operates the last I heard. He was a very interesting person.He is a prime example of that having alot of money can't make you happy.He was a very troubled soul. He was good looking,very bright and rich to boot.Retama I will get some more info for you about the current status of Hughes Tool.
  8. conditio When I was in jr.high and high school nobody wanted me to be on their team. It was because I JUST am not good at sports at all.I really tried very hard to be able to be not an embarassment in this dept. LOL I got pass this issue with humour. I made fun of myself before others could do so. The only thing that made it more difficult was I was in premo condition. The mentality was like hey you can do this you just aren't trying hard enough
  9. The washing windows things is not what you have to worry about. At least these people are willing to do something for money rather than harass you for nothing. Ii's very common in Mexico where people who have no job,and no education to get one to wash windows,or watch your vehicle while you are eating or shopping. I know that it must be annoying sometimes though. But,be thankful they are not the ones that mean you harm. The people like that are just trying to bring home tortillas and beans to their kids. Check it out on the streets,you will not find that many MEXICAN kids compared to white and black kids. SAD but true
  10. I have talked to alot of young kids on the streets of Houston. They are doing the same thing.
  11. My space meaning Houston. My roots have been in Houston for a long time.My great-grandfather and alot of my family are buried at Glenwood Cemetary,right down the hill from Howard Hughes and his parents. More recent events include my son moving to the Rice lofts a few years back after DT had been renovated.WE could not even walk to go out to eat without being intruded upon people begging for money. My other son who still lives there has to deal with them on a daily basis.He is a very kind sensitive person who feels sorry for them but is really getting tired of them messing with his mix all the time.That is why he bought a house in Katy.
  12. If I lived in midtown or numerous other locations in Houston I would be major worried and angry also.I know alot of these people are not mentally sound,and maybe have fallen on hard times.However,that is not a new problem on Planet Earth.When I was a kid we called homeless people "hobos",and in general they did not create problems in our daily living.They did not create tent cities and stuff.They moved on. This new group of homeless is a whole different breed however.They are major invading our "space",that we worked hard for.
  13. That's what really scary about it. A awful lot of those people are major mental,and not on medication. I have been living here in McAllen for several years now.I am however a Houston native,and go up there alot.I can't believe how rapidly this problem is growing or what exactly needs to be done to correct it.
  14. The Globe Store in McAllen is still open. I live here so I'm sure about this.I think they only sell groceries though now.They have commercials on TV all the time about wall of food values,and that they have fresh french bread and fried chicken. They do get alot of business from Mexico I'm pretty sure.Mexican shoppers provide alot of revenue here. We're only like less than ten miles from Reynosa,Mexico,and Monterrey is not far away either.
