I live up in DC, and the Washington Nationals logo 'W' looks very similar to the old Weingarten's 'W'. Pretty much everytime I go see them play, I constantly tell people they stole the 'W' from Weingartens. I miss Houston, is that odd?

OR HOW ABOUT...

Malibu go-cart raceway and arcade at the Southwest Freeway

I found these pictures of Malibu as it looks today...or not long ago. I still have my license for the go-karts someplace. I also think I still have some tokens for the video games. I used to go all the time for their putt-putt golf, but always perfered Speedy's for go-karts. I don't think that plae is still open, but it rocked. The track was built into an old pool.

What about Panjo's Pizza in Town & Country Center

Whooooo! I mentioned Panjo's in another post! That place rocked. We had all of our T-ball parties there. Memory serves the pizza was pretty good thin crust style. I wish I had some pictures.

I like it and the colors, but I don't know how I feel about each new team having a more traditional soccer name.

I really was rooting for an Oiler return

To me, there are so many pizza places that pizza is no longer a special treat. To me, there's no

difference between Domino's, Papa John's, Mazzio's, Pizza Hut, etc. Many of you probably

disagree with me. I remember as a kid going to Shakey's was a real treat, sitting on the hard

wood benches at the long table and listening to the player piano. All gone now.

Someone might have mentioned it, but we had a cool Pipe Organ Pizza that wasn't too far from Panjo's, closer to Memorial City Mall, but even as a kid I thought their pizza was way too greasy.

This was probably only in my neighborhood across from Town & Country Mall, but Panjo's Pizza was a great place we went after most T-ball games. They had a great arcade game that was kinda like Battlezone, but you were a sub and you played by looking through the periscope.

I can't remember the name of the place, but they sold was stero equipment at low low proces and had a very excited guy yelling about it on the commercial. It ws located near the Toy's R Us at I-10 and Gessner. Would of been around 1987 or so.
