  1. After reading, I decide to look at Shadow Creek Ranch's website, and I read this:

    "Shadow Creek Ranch is the #1 selling master-planned community in the Houston-Pearland Metroplex."

    Ehh, Houston-Pearland Metroplex.

  2. Since I probably won't have the chance to go there on a school day, please elaborate.  It sure looks like a beautiful campus passing down Franz Road, and of course it is brand new, so that's a plus.

    My (step) kids went to Mayde Creek and it's a good school.  In general, the homes on the North side of the Katy Freeway, which is where Mayde Creek is, are smaller, older, and less expensive than those on the South Side, though there are lots of exceptions.  This has an impact on the  demographic makeup of the student body, I guess.   

    In general, Katy schools are excellent.

    You know the saying "don't judge a book by its cover", the same goes for Morton Ranch High. That school has some serious issues. My cousin substitutes there. There are fights all the time. The TAKS scores are among the lowest in Katy I.S.D. Two kids have killed themselves from that school(both were in my cousin's class). A lot of scary gothic kids that stand outside the school all the time. The area of Katy that its in houses the most low-income students. Very illiterate school.

    People around the area were upset in how much beauty went into Morton Ranch because of the area it was in, it was, "too nice for the area".

    I really want you to try and take the time to see the school inside, in person. You be the judge.

  3. Mayde Creek High School, is not THAT bad. Taylor High School is a better school the Mayde Creek. Just now that any Katy area high school is better than Morton Ranch High <_<. There are some houses $150,000, in the Grayson Lakes neighborhood.

  4. I work in Downtown (ExxonMobil), and for me, I wouldn't want to live there. I like working there though, and Downtown is always busy. I hope this plan works, because the sketches really look good. Hopefully, othere devlopers develop multi-use buildings like the Shamrock Tower all over Downtown.

  5. Heh. Although, I think that's become an issue as well. More than a few people think that some of the early success is staring to get to the Texans players this year, including David Carr, who seemed to welcome all the attention that his "hair" received to start the season.

    And I do think the Texans have issues with playcalling. Meanwhile, it's pretty cool that every TV announcer who comes to Reliant Stadium to call a Texans game starts the broadcast off with something like, "Welcome to beautiful Reliant Stadium" or "Welcome to the brand new showpiece of the NFL, ladies & gentlement, the magnificent Reliant Stadium."

    It would really be nice if they said that during a Texans playoff game. Heh.

    Wasn't that said during the Super Bowl? :unsure:
