I would say Warren Moon. Earl Campbell did not play long enough with the Oilers to be the greatest player of all time in the organization.

Houston native (Oak Forest) RIP

Did you get his autograph?

No, I did not. Didn't want to disturb the guy...

Very cool. Concert was last night.

Yeah I heard last night's concert was great!

I just saw Dave Gahan, singer of Depeche Mode at the Park Shops Downtown buying some Starbucks Coffee around noon time today. Did anybody else see him?

Alright building sleuths, let's figure it out:

I can't think of any old warehouses downtown, unless its like that old building by Houston House Link

So maybe she's talking about East End warehouse district?

I would agree with you that maybe is in East End or a warehouse around North Main. I am surprised that many developers have not jumped on the Northside of Downtown. There are many abandoned warehouses and empty space where nobody bothers you about parking.

But I do see a place like Walter's fitting better in the East End. You have a lot of art gallery's studios and live band venue Super Happy Funland over there on Polk.

Good article on how the yuppie crowd destroyed live music venue history on Washington...

What about any nightlife on Elysian or Hardy from downtown to 610?

What about any nightlife on Elysian or Hardy from downtown to 610?

Maybe they could turn that green space into a golf course???

I just hope that this area improves...I live in the Candlelight Oaks neighborhood which is closer to oak forest and Mangum Manor and slowly I am starting to see how young professionals (like me) are discovering all of these neighborhoods...

I've read it somewhere on this forum, but I will agree that maybe Shepherd from 11th on to 610N can also be a good option for the next avenue of trendy lounges bars like on Washington? As of now, there are used car sales lots like there were in Washington. You have three neighborhoods surrounding this area...Timbergrove, Shady Acres and Heights.

My second but long shot option as the next "it" place is on the northside Main from UH Downtown all the way to I -45. You have some new development creeping through this area at a very slowly pace since early 2000

What is a good cleaner for a stainless steel refrigerator?

I went to do a home visit for a dog adoption yesterday and fell in love with the neighborhood. It was off Park Place (east of) and Poplar street. I think it was called Santa Maria or something like that. Very neat streets. Had a bit of an oak Forest feel. Does anybody know anything about that area?

That neighborhood is Glenbrook Valley...the name of the street in Santa Elena.

I would check Candlelight Oaks ...very lovely neighborhood!

What are signs that you are about to get lay off ( looking for reasons other than bad economy, company making announcements of "restructuring"...)

What about BURGERS, WINGS and THINGS on Pinemont? Anybody ever gone there?

I am interested in buying a phone along with the service from Cricket. Have any of you had service with Cricket? If you have, how is the service? Good? Bad?

Thanks for your help.

What kind of insight do you seek?

Good builder, location, future appreciation...?

Can anybody give me an insight on these homes? I am interested in buying one. Thanks.

This happened a couple of months back and finally there is some background on the downtown jumper. He worked for UBS...

That is funny when you guys say it was in bad side of shepherd...shepherd and all of shady acres was always the bad part and now you see all these yuppies in that neighborhood. Same thing with Washington...I mean "Washington Corridor..." lol

Anybody heard about these townhomes?

WOW, I am impressed! ScwinnChopper is correct!!! They filmed most of the movie "Once Upon a Time in Mexico" in San Miguel De Allende, Guanajuato.
