  1. Somewhat related, Harris County is currently working to archive Ray Miller's Harris Conty Historian archives. They have boxes and boxes of his stuff. I hear it's pretty cool. Watching these rebroadcasts is one of my fave Saturday afternoon activities when at the beach. We only have rabbit ears down there so it's pretty retro while sipping a cocktail. I saw one last week from 1971 and I think Don Armstrong was the narrator.
  2. I predict this will be as successful as El Mercado Del Sol.
  3. GREATEST? What's that, some best of album? Best of(s) can't be best. I think my time in the UK pubs grew my affinity for Astronaut. The best is still the first - Duran Duran - Duran Duran
  4. One of my more recent favorites: "What Happens Tomorrow" You Tube it.
  5. I too am in the biz. I don't think it's nearly as dire as Vertigo suggests. Lots of demand for engineers, drafsmen and measurement anlayst type folk. And once you add these types there is trickle-down in other departments. And contract is cool if you ask me. We have one guy who has been contract seven years. They tried to convert him but he keeps saying no.
  6. I've only heard this phrase when comparing economies.
  7. Yep. I meant to say they were all flying last weekend. Seeing them run down Jamica Beach and turn back over San Luis Pass is awesome. Actually HEARING them is almost as much fun. I saw the B-24 making runs and thought "imagine 20 of those coming at you".
  8. Lone Star had all the big boys from Saturday afternoon. They even had an incident with a rare plane who was down for a flyin.
  9. Is traffic really a sign of success or lack of planning?
  10. The downtown parking garages are near capacity once again.
  11. Male stalls with no doors. Sounds like a Corp Turd fantasy.
  12. ML Baseball is a sport built upon fraud and lies. Roger should be King of the Hall of Fraud. It's a joke of a sport'; this coming from an ex-fan who used to love the game.
  13. Yes, Female Pimps are the worlds most logical creatures...
  14. Flashback! Too bad Duran Duran's latest CD was a bomb. Having Timbaland and Timberlake produce was a big mistake.
  15. MAY 1--Deborah Palfrey, the so-called D.C. Madam who today committed suicide at her mother's Florida home, once told a California judge that she "seriously considered" killing herself following her arrest in a felony pimping case in the early-1990s. [Edited by Editor for copyright reasons. Summarize and link, people!]
  16. Please note nowhere did I say them swimming in Kinder Lake was a bad thing. As a wise person observed, "that's Texas 2008." You see new things every day. Of course that water quality is not that great for swimming.
  17. Govt? Maybe. Mob? Could be. Did a lot of people want to get even with her? For sure.
  18. OK, so I meant the old Gov. Jinda seems better than Babble-On Blank-0. That state needs a Rep.
  19. Has to be. But most are CHUD. You'd never realize it. Downtown is boring. I have consultants that spend weekends in downtown Houston. They like the city but can't stand downtown. Nothing to do at all they say.
  20. I did get one back in 2001. I went out and bought a truck. Hope everyone does the same. All I hear is gloom and doom but Houston seems to be holdling up quite well.
  21. Not me. Mine was phased out with income. Enjoy my money! Why not give EVERYONE rebates?
  22. Low rent casinos. Redneck Rivera has it beat from what I hear. I've been to three Sugar Bowls, Tulane vs. UH games, and many NOLA road trips. The Mayor and Gov. are on my bad side.
