  1. they used to have free movie nights on the back patio and two twin peaks episodes every tuesday. it was awesome.
  2. so it is probably this building from the 1912 main street fire?
  3. there are so many books listing dirty laundry on him... i am actually intereseted in any places he went, fancy or otherwise here in houston, restaurants, shops, etc. here in houston. anyone know?
  4. holy crap! how can it be for sale!?!
  5. i read somewhere that the houston temple was damaged (not totaled) by the 1900 storm. would that be the one that was finally destroyed by fire? would love to see the photo!
  6. quite interesting isn't it? i love the detailing on that one. i have found little info on that one and also interested in any info since a few of our great city's founders were masons, yes? this was the only based houston site i found: http://www.srmason-houston.org/
  7. neat! any record i've found that was recorded in houston has been christian, high school choir or preteen partridge wannabes. i feel better now. i do have one recording of "hulda" from iceland performing folk songs at the shamrock hotel in three different languages!
  8. i am happy to see that... but what about the other trees? it was such a large amount , i'm sure they found a dollar to be made from that too. with their debt, i'm sure they or the demo company found some way to benefit.
  9. that A9 thing is pretty wild. i just saw my cat in the window of my apartment (pictured there from the street) --- creepy!
  10. damn. saw the title of this thread and knew exactly which building you were refering to, although i've only seen it once. i hope that this is a hoax... how upsetting!
  11. it's this school. does anyone know if it will undergo renovation? does anyone have any old photos of this building when it was in use?
  12. that post may have been more about the trees... they were old trees, really beautiful. does anyone have a photo for those who don't know? http://www.sixflagshouston.com/photos/WagonWheel/wagon_wheel http://www.sixflagshouston.com/photos/Bamb...hoot_splashdown found these...
  13. what happened to all of the trees? i guess whatever is going there next doesn't need all of those nice trees? do you think they were enough to take to a mill or what? there were quite a few...
  14. i was riding my bike by the old gregory school in freeman's town area and there is a new sign saying that it is the new site of a black heritage library. i think this is awesome because i really love that building and hooray for anything concerning a new heritage library. i am assuming they will revamp at least part of the school, since i really love that building --- please tell me this is so... the other library comment is that i was on my way to the main library downtown. i went in and thre was a sign that read ---
  15. someting similar hapened when i paid full price for 2 tickets and they forgot to mention theywere closing an hour early to have a wedding in the dinosaur room -- which seems neat but they should have mentioned that when it was only an hour away when i paid for them. i was also irritated tough, whn they did not reduce the regular ticket price when the had a floor or more closed once for remodel a few years back... my date's main interest that day was the gem display which was closed (and should have been a warning at the time...) whew! i'm bitter today!
  16. ech! sounds more like the mueseums back when PT barnum owned one... pure nightmare fuel, i say.

    Danse Macabre Part III: The Dance of the Dead The Last of Three Puppet-Orchestral Collaborations Running March 17-25, TWO WEEKENDS ONLY Bobbindoctrin Puppet Theatre and Two Star Symphony join forces again for the final installment of their three-part Danse Macabre series. With music by Two Star Symphony and text by Bobbindoctrin's Joel Orr, The Dance of the Dead takes us on a journey beyond death as ode to the Camille Saint-Saens symphonic poem Danse Macabre, the original inspiration for the three collaborations. With Two Star Symphony setting the mood with their chilling original scores, Bobbindoctrin leads us through a graveyard where a man has been buried alive on the fateful night when the dead rise to dance out the tragic motions of their living selves. Roaming grave to grave, we become acquainted with the dead and their last memories, building towards the climactic Saint-Saens piece Danse Macabre, with a new arrangement by Margaret Lejuene and choreography by Freneticore
