  1. Do you know what side of the Brennan family owns Brennans? There's the Commanders Palace Brennans, the Brennans Brennans, and another faction I think.... It will be nice to see them open back up. EDIT: Happy Birthday Musicman! Shouldn't you be heading out for a liquid birthday lunch??
  2. I was thinking that they should add a stair up to a small observation deck, but someone pointed out to me it would attract jumpers. Would it?
  3. Henry the Puffy Taco would kick the Pita's arse any day!! http://www.henryspuffytacos.com/ I miss puffy tacos. No one has them in Houston. (or at least not that I know of....)
  4. The cookoff can be very, uh, incriminating once the tequila starts flowing!
  5. Or you could just go to the Shiloh. They have a BBQ out on the deck. That counts, right?
  6. It's unfair that they rip off the general public to come wander around in the middle of what is essentially a private party. Scoring tent tickets is HUGE. The level of drunken debauchery is quite high among all the corporate stiffs. Almost as fun as the hospitality suites at the OffShore Technology Conference back in the day.
  7. Sounds as if someone is not exhibiting the appropriate level of excitement over the new "sliders" joint. Philistine!
  8. didn't we cover that yesterday? If someone took a bus to a farmers market, people might think they were coming to buy stuff with food stamps, or eat all the samples. As opposed to people who come to a farmers market on the light rail, who bring their own re-usable canvas shopping bags and ask if the carrots are sustainably farmed.
  9. This is why white people love monorails. No smelly people, and they get you to the E ticket rides faster!!
  10. Hey, welcome back Kinkaid! You're getting here just in time for summer.
  11. True. But JoJos was something else entirely, it was like fern bar meets Denny's. On Saturdays people would wait an hour for a table at 2:00 am. Imagine a slightly cleaner and better decorated I-Hop filled to the gills with drunk party people. I think it was the only place I've seen people doing lines in the bathroom while waiting for their order of pancakes and bacon to come out.
  12. I think you would like Catbirds, actually.
  13. Who needs pig when they can have a pomengranate martini? You have a point about the stacking. Richmond Ave was douche ground zero in its day, but it had parking. It also had JoJos for after. Is there any 24 hour food on Washington?
  14. Is this "Reign"? Or is that the new build further down? The Washington Ave bar scene is achieving maximum douche-density very rapidly. In 2-3 years it will be like Richmond Ave all over again.
  15. True enough. Who knew? The car from the future ended up being a bulbous BMW with ugly ass rims!
  16. What is up with this "Panamera" name? I keep wanting to say Panaderia. That BMW looks about as exciting as an 1980 Celica.
  17. I still like my giant grow-house idea best. We're Houston! We do things big, so turn the Astrodome into the planet's biggest hydroponic indoor farm.
  18. Heck, forget the Starbucks and line the center with opium dens! Think of all the hipsters slouching around in a daze, drooling on their messenger bags.......
  19. That was meant to be tongue in cheek, but in all seriousness, there are probably tens of thousands more people who will go to a mega church than go to high-concept club and drink $18 martinis. And then after church, they'll want to eat. And even poor Lidz can get in the game by doing customized mega-church lidz! A win-win!
  20. Wow, so there are things getting built in Houston! I think we can solve the Houston Pavillions problem. Offer a sweet deal to one of the mega churches, and await the flood of people on the weekends. That'll motivate the retail and restaurants!
  21. Hey, look on the bright side! Uncle Draytie didn't bite on Adam Dunn (and his sub 250 average). At least now we won't have to watch him and Lee not make plays in the outfield.
