Is that an analog clock on the dash? If so it's fitting, I think Chrysler's are fugly and have horrible styling.

Downtown shots during MNF tonight looked pretty dark, but I like it.

I was looking over some of the program points and what should and shouldn't be placed in the green containers. UGH.

We can put paper napkins, paper plates, or paper cups in them. We can put plastic bags in them either. That seems like a lot to leave out... ugh.

Something about the plastic bags jam the machines? Come on....

The 't after "can" is a lot to leave out when you want to make a coherent point.

Those things aren't easily recycled I guess. Plastic bags I get, it would take a huge amount to get any mass of material to work with. Paper cups and plates, maybe it's because of the wax they put on it. That wouldn't play well when trying to smash back into pulp.

Tomorrow they'll make up today's game in Detroit. Next Monday night would be their last home game, and since they were trying to play at the university of Minnesota today (said they couldn't get it ready in time), my guess is it will be there.

Looks like the Sam Houston National Forest has jumped south and taken over Afton Oaks, and by 2012, the chrome, halo type street signs in the Galleria area will hover in place? Ah, renderings...

I like how you can see completely through the building. Unless the vantage point is on a huge hill, otherwise the reflection tree-line would never line up with the background one.

I love that orange color. This thread makes me want to buy things I can't afford, I should block it or something.

Haha great name 20thstdad. That alone got me to sign up!

To hell with conference loyalty. There is no reason to do anything other than hate Auburn and hope they lose. Unless you are pulling for them to win, and then a couple months later have it all taken away due to rules violations. That might be almost as good as losing.

Most of the high traffic roundabouts I've seen in England have traffic lights, it's not a free-for-all. Those are usually just on smaller roads. A roundabout with lights is still useful, it allows for new traffic to start going well before the previous traffic exits the intersection.

You can choose to create or join a group, and if you make it private you can put a password on it. We can do yahoo too, doesn't matter to me. That way some people won't have to make a new login for new stuff. I already have one I use all the time.

Ok I made one:

Get in the action now:

When I look this morning it's all tied again. Oh well. I'll share the winnings I guess.

We should do the ESPN.com bowl game pick em, it does confidence and stuff.

I thought overall standings were tied, but it shows me up by 1, and with that cover by Nebraska, it's over!!! When do I get my money?

It's down to the last 3, and can go either way between me and ibuprofen (who was that again?). VT looks to have it locked up, but we have that picked the same. But we have OU/Neb and Hawaii/UNLV picked different, so the two point swing can tie it, put me up by 2, or I lose by one. Craziness!! Too bad I'm not gonna stay awake until the Hawaii game is over to find out.

America's (that freakin lobster dish with the corn pasta, come on!)

Blue Fish

Chicago Pizza

Beck's Prime

Pierson & Company BBQ

Wings n Things

Ok so that's 6, but I like some damn wings so deal with it!

If they build it, hell even I might come. but only on a guys' night out kind of thing where I can get just drunk enough to not notice that soccer is boring.

Not knowing who Bob Dylan is = FAIL.

Cleveland fans are bitter, they have been dumped on since the beginning of time. LeBron can go wherever he wants, but the way he did it was immature and classless. Of course he'll never realize that because he's just a large, talented kid. In the end, it's the NBA so who gives a crap. His self-importance has reached ridiculous levels, and I choose to not partake in any of it.

Defense wins championships...oops!

This is fine by me. I think it will make fat americans realize we don't need to be fed just because we're sitting down in a confined space. And it'll doubly save $$ for Contin-ited, because food that gets served is paid for, and I'm sure far fewer people pay for it than ate the free stuff so the have far less on hand.

Then again, drinks should be free. Add it to my fare, I don't care. Just whiskey me as soon as I sit down, and keep it comin.

With our small blocks, maybe. Definitely would be neat. But how to you assign the address for the joined part! It's impossible, that alone should prevent it from ever happening.

Where else would I be?

I've seen questions here before about whether walkers/joggers should use the right or left of hike/bike trails. I guess it's not obvious to everyone.

Would runners be frowned upon if they used this, or simply run over....?

Just keep to the right, and no headphones so you can hear me when I say I'm coming. And no pooping on the pathway, though it's probably annoying dogs doing that and not runners.

Ha! 15 minutes? 3:30 AM doesn't count.

I make it from near 610 and Shepherd to Westlake plaza in 20 minutes all the time at 8am, and back at 5pm. I-10 is not a problem.

I'm glad something will be done with this space.

Between Beck's, Hubcap and Christian's, not to mention the Counter and Five Guys on Washington, my waistline may be in for some serious expansion.

I was thinking the same thing...bring on the beef!!

I don't think the laissez faire, bohemian attitudes were meant to attract big box suburban retailers to the area. And the arbitrary geographical distinction is the worst argument I have heard, second only to the elitist/racist one. So what if it isn't in within the plat for the heights as recorded in the Harris County real property records. And if you are so laissez faire, bohemian, you would equally support people's rights to speak out against what they consider to be a nuisance and detriment to their community. But you are not really Mr. Heights laissez faire/bohemain. You are just another right wing conservative who favors the rights of giant corporations to suck money out of a community over the right of the community to have some influence over the quality of life in their area.

I thought the mayor who signed the deal with the devil was a Democrat?

When I was a kid, those Atkinson peanut butter bar things were very common. I used to load up, they were my favorite. This year, my daughter only got 1. Sad. They need to up their advertising and come back to popularity so I can get my yearly fix.

On the other side of things, I do not miss those black or orange unmarked wrapped squishy peanut (maybe?) type candies. Gross.
