  1. That was a mold issue due to the stucco fronts they were using. Unfortunately there were many builders around Texas that were caught up in that issue, as they were all using the same stucco (or faux stucco, as it were). The homes to which I refer are not the stucco kind. I grew up in Kingwood and we had several large trees close to the house, and never had a problem. I will be sure to check, though, with whatever home we choose.
  2. Here are some former listings that you can see. I apologize that the pics are smaller than the ones in more current listings. I guess they do that for storage purposes. http://www.har.com/solddata/solddetail.cfm...&cid=&siteType= http://www.har.com/solddata/solddetail.cfm...&cid=&siteType= http://www.har.com/solddata/solddetail.cfm...&cid=&siteType= http://www.har.com/solddata/solddetail.cfm...&cid=&siteType= Hey, wow, thanks bachanon. Will do.
  3. Just wondering if anyone has lived or lives in a Life Forms home from the 80's. I have been in love with their architectural style for a long time, and have always felt the homes sort of "melt" into the landscape of the Woodlands. The homes' styles seem to be a part of the woods, rather than looking like they're fighting it. We almost bought one three years ago, but the sellers didn't accept our offer. Now we are thinking of making an offer on another one. I have never seen any homes quite like these anywhere in the Houston area. I believe Life Forms is exclusive to The Woodlands, but it's interesting that no one has copied their signature details and styles elsewhere.
  4. I love Old Navy! Sheesh...*shakes head* if it was that low-end, I don't think they'd put one on Post Oak/Westheimer. The area directly north of I-10 and south of Long Point is totally Ghetto, you are right about that. Spring Shadows is really nice though, they've done a lot with it!
  5. I think what we need is a Cereality--screw the cookies, bring on the cereal! http://www.cereality.com Can't you just see this in the Galleria? If I weren't on Atkins I'd be all over some Cap'n Crunch Peanut Butter in Chocolate Milk. Oh yeah!!
  6. Drove past it today and noticed the church sign is removed and there are flagged stakes around it. Anyone know what's going on?
  7. SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Omg hang on...happy dance is coming I am so excited!! Thanks for posting this! I have been on the Rhapsody out of Gal, but not the Voyager-class. This is great!
  8. Thanks gnu. I was sitting there scratching my head going "MMP?" LOL!! Duh! I'm a little slow.
  9. Where did the big locomotive go that used to sit in front of the lake by the zoo?
  10. I'm 99% sure that's Rocket's Grill (Roger Clemens' new place). As for the movie theater, I don't really know how in the heck they are getting all of that in there. Should be interesting!!
  11. I loved Marq*E when it first opened and thought it had real potential, but the little ____ ghetto teenagers that ran amok bullied any decent people out. Nobody wants to walk around on a date or with their family when you have 16-year olds screaming expletives and chasing each other everywhere. It got really out of hand at one point, if I recall there was a whole expose on the kids there in the Press or similar paper. It's no wonder everything is closing! I hope Magic can do something with it.
  12. Oh, wow, you're throwing all that around again... *yawn* I'm neither prejudiced nor genocidal, but I think it is kind of amusing that you feel it is your mission to paint me as this evil Republican bigot, like it's your personal agenda. That's so cute! Ah, but seriously, if you only knew me! Bottom line is--you don't--and I'd rather you not. Little-if anything--that you say comes across as intelligent or even interesting...so let's not try, okay? Don't want to strain any cerebral stem cells you may have left in that head of yours. Please--just ignore my rantings and I'll ignore your...er...spin. Thanks a bunch!
  13. eww! Why do you insist on chasing me around? *rolleyes* Are you really this dense? You can't possibly be. I know you're a raging liberal and all, but come on. It was a joke....one that you missed. Whatta shocker. Has absolutely nothing to do with gay people, but I am lost--how am I obsessed with gays? ROTFL! Yeah, um........yer a bit delusional.
  14. so, are we to expect that the team, collectively, is a dynamo? Or is there just one player that happens to be the dynamo? Sounds DORKY! How perfect. Well, dang it, I'm offended. The good news is, if we can get about 4 more people riled up, and someone like Shelley Sekula-Gibbs behind us, we could really reduce this name to shreds and get something even MORE gay, if possible.
  15. Hi, just a question...does your new job pay you a subsidy? Most TMC employers offer at least something to employees. MD Anderson is the worst about this (my husband works for them), but they still give $30 a month to assist with parking expenses or bus/train fare. The only park-n-rides that go directly to the medical center are METRO's 292, 297, & 298. None of those go to the Kuykendahl lot, unfortunately. Texas' largest employer and you really only have three direct routes there. It's a damned shame. The closest direct park-n-ride is actually The Woodlands Express. It goes from Rayford/Sawdust Rd (just n. of FM 2920) to TMC. Other than that, you can take any of the park-n-rides from the Spring Lot or Kuyukendahl Lot downtown with a transfer to the train. It will take you a little over an hour to get to work that way. Good luck and congratulations on your new job!
  16. Two words: PIZZA ROMA!!!!!! (off Dairy Ashford & Whittington)
  17. Just shows where Garcia's loyalties lie. I think it's a sad state of affairs. You would think a Mexican-American demographic would appreciate what 1836 means. I'm quite sure Texas would be a different place today had it not been for the events that happened that year, and Ms. Garcia would no doubt be rolling tortillas somewhere in Chihuahua.
  18. I just received an email from Midway (I wrote them yesterday) and it looks like construction is not scheduled to start until 2007!
  19. mr football, I hate to sound like a repetitive nag, but can you please let us know where you heard this? Thanks.
