  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. "Massive new sports complex for Whites".

    I wonder how that thread would go over? Why wouldn't the massive new sports complex be for all people? Why must it be marketed to a particular ethnicity? Just curious. I am not blowing a gasket, I don't have my panties in a wad. I'm just curious how the headline "Massive new sports complex for Whites" would go over. Just a thought...

    Becuase white people don't play soccer.

  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. 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.

  5. 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".

  6. 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.

  7. 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.
