Yes and no. The 10 rescue dogs I have are chained to a treadmill that charges my car. We keep a dog bowl half full just out of reach until one collapses, then we feed them. If I need a fast charge I'll toss a piece of raw meat in the bowl and place a trapped ferrel cat behind it.

One more thing: Back in 2004 it was easier to park your car for free after work. People that show up for happy hour would stay late into the evening when parking was less complicated.

The homeless. As the crowds thin out you see them more and more and then finally that's all you see. Most people with money in their pocket looking for a good night out will soon tire of being harassed by the homeless. Downtown pushes them into Midtown, Midtown pushes back and the cycle is complete. Downtown before rail was even better. Now all rail does is connect people from the Allen Rosen-connected Midtown Terrace to downtown where they can pester everyone for change.

Good grief you would think they could have enough sense to patch an exhaust leak if they drive through at 4-5am! I'll keep my eyes peeled for these two Mensa candidates during my bouts of insomnia.

It was probably two kids setting up a Lemonade stand. They should save the taxpayer some money and use drones for these sort of things.

Oh and also 200lbs of dog food.

I'm just counting the days until the new WalMart opens as my first purchase will be a gas generator to keep my Nissan Leaf charged while I'm at work.

That's kinda like saying, "Hey they built a ton of homes in Nevada, nobody lives in them, but I'm glad they're sitting there abandoned." And by the way, it will not get expensive if you choose not to waste the money on it. I'll have to come up to Dallas sometime to see for myself the world class empty seats on DFW rail.

Contrary to what is pushed by Light Rail Inc all is not rainbows and unicorns. http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2012/04/14/light-rail-construction-kills-mans-restaurant-dream/

I don't drive on the sidewalks, so don't walk in the streets. I'll admit that I've revved my old car a little when driving in that part of town after having some jackass purposely walk out when the light turns green. They know what they're doing, and I've watched them do it to single female drivers.

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Kramer re-striped the lanes from four to two. "Super-Wide Lanes"

Crazy-@ss honkeys in the Heights!

So Target should be the target because they started it, but instead they target Wal-Mart instead of targeting Target as Target has correctly targeted their target hipster demographic with targeted messaging that deflects them as a target of criticism due to their sleek product design aesthetics.

Enough with the historical hand-wringing! If we micro-examined the life of every person a street was named after we would end up with only 5 street names and sat-nav nightmare. But just to stir the pot some more, be sure to check out the Confederate Angel in Heritage Park and the statue of Lieutenant Dowling (Confederate) in Herman Park. Oh the horrors!

Great. I can see a Midtown dead horse epidemic in the making when they discover that you actually have to maintain something other than your lifestyle and wardrobe. Of course we wise owls in the Heights will start the Heights Horse Rescue squad (funded by generous donations from our neighborhood Walmart) and relocate these noble beasts to the wooded areas of the Heights. (Not to be confused with the Woodland Heights, 'cause that's not really the Heights per the argyle sweater set) Once they're nursed back to health we can ride them on the rails2trails paths until the inevitable factions emerge pitting bikers, hikers, and horseback riders against one another. All of this because Walmart drove the area to hate and skinheads started raising chickens for their White's Only omelets.

My guess is that the victim purchased his drink and Skittles at a mom and pop not a big box.

Please... Every hipster knows that chicken eggs are soooo 2007! I mean, they're probably doing that in Midtown by now! Every blue blooded Heights resident knows that you should be fighting city hall for the right to raise ducks. Have you not seen the price of organic duck eggs at Central Market? You must not be in the right book of the month discussion group. I suggest you tender your resignation and search for one that's slightly ahead of the curve. Next thing you'll say is that you want to raise pigmy goats...sheesh. (hint, goats out, micro donkeys in)

I'm considering getting PETA involved so that we can effectively cock-block your petition. What is driving this need for eggs in the Heights? How many beta-males does it take to make a quiche?

In this "bed-in" against Wal-mart you can divide the strange bedfellows into two classes. 1. Useful idiots 2. Friends of convenience The useful idiot really has nothing at stake and their primary motivation is to protest something to the point (hopefully) of capitulation. Protesting is their hobby and primary form of social networking. Friends of convenience do have skin in the game, come from opposite viewpoints, and are willing to violate certain personal views or realities based on the fact that the invader is a bit too close to their "backyard". In the case of a conservative it could be "I believe in property rights until Walmart opens up near my Victorian on Yale". For liberals it could be "I support the working man until the place he works at opens up down the street from my Yard of the Month Victorian on Yale". The rest of us just want cheap bulk dog food.

That pretty much sums it up for me. You could also say that it looks like a future rescue dog.

"Love" is a pretty strong word. You must work for Metro. I think your average "working-class" thug views Metro rail as a necessary evil when getting from point A to your back pocket is his objective. As our average thug works his way up from rail station muggings to a "get out the vote" union representative he will no doubt prefer the luxury of the automobile for its speed and efficiency as well as its ample trunk spaced used for holding multiple ballot boxes.

I like Buffalo exchange because I receive much needed validation when the 20-something behind the counter accepts my clothing for trade. It gives me peace of mind that I'm still cool and not a sellout despite the fact that I live in the Heights. I find if I toss in a few talking points I hear on Pacifica I sometimes get more for them.
