Ha, funny...didn't read the link.

I hear it's owned by the same people that own Pink's. I look forward to seeing what it is. Hopefully, not mexican food. Not dissing mexican food, just have enough.

When my car was totalled, the insurance company offered me fair market value as the car being in excellent condition. I would not accept anything less. And all your out of pocket costs should be paid. Period. I wonder if it having been a brand new car, why you aren't getting what you would have to pay for anohter brand new car. Surely, there is a coverage for that. Insurance companies say no out of hand. It is up to you to be your best and loudest advocate. And no, you don't want to fake anything. Filing false reports or claims is seriously illegal. However, before signing off for anything, be very sure that you don't have any muscle aches, neck aches etc. Sometimes those things don't appear for awhile. When I fell off my bicycle and broke my ankle, it was four months before the shoulder back pain occurred. I had landed on my shoulder after my ankle broke, but the ankle was such an issue I didn't notice the shoulder/back pain. It wasn't an insurance claim so that wasn't an issue, but that cost quite a bit to resolve and had it been an insurance claim, I would have been out that which they should have paid.

Can we take some animals from the Boston Zoo? They are going to euthanize as many as 20% of their animals due to budget cuts.

Don't you love it? I was riding on Michaux one day just north of N. Main and there was a whole flock of them in the tree behind the fire station. Made my day!

Actually, many of the blocks in Sunset Heights and East Sunset Heights have now established minimum lot size and minimum building line protection. I have just petitioned for it on E. 25th in East Sunset Heights with 80+% buy in by neighbors. HCAD will have a showing of them somewhere.

realtor: John and Brenda Erickson with Suzanne Anderson. They live in and know the Heights. John has been my realtor on three home sales/purchases. 713-864-4012

pasties...hahaha porchman is funny man!

I agree, N. Shepherd is ugly. But it is what it is. If you don't want ugly, drive on Heights or Studewood. There are actually fewer used car dealers than there used to be. Where do you suggest they go? They are legal businesses.

more like depressing. While the prisoners enjoyed it, it was just sad to see and imagine prison life. And after being dragged year after year after year to the Houston Lifestock Show and Rodeo, found it sad too. Poor animals. But even worse was watching my father's home movies with no sound and in black and white of the rodeo. BORING!

We went several times when I was a kid. Not sure why. The prisoners that participated got extra spending money I think and the bulls had $100 bills between their horns. I was very young. I remember seeing the prisoners behind the fencing in their bleachers. My mother had been a character witness for a guy that was wrongfully convicted and put on death row and I remember she was always looking for him in the stands. Even as a child, I found it to be very sad.

I was never inside. My sister was friends with the young lady whose father owned the house. It was quite the neighborhood gossip that he loved the color purple to the point of insanity.

Mr. Cook was mad for purple. Everything inside was purple.

Hey Oldhouse Lover, I have a friend looking for a house in the loop, Oak Forest would be perfect for her. Are you dog friendly to a responsible pet owner?

You think living near railroad tracks is bad? I used to work at a steel forging plant over there off 12th and Hemstead Road. Multiple thousand ton presses, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, weekends and holidays. That's 100x worse than the occasional train. The empty lot across 12th from the plant, supposedly, can never be developed because of the toxins in the ground. Nope, wouldn't want to live over there for any reason.

THat's what the "or so ago" covers.

Or that he/she is considerate of what their neigbors have to look at and cognizant of what he/she has to look at on their neighbors' house.

Dosn't do it for me. Can we please stop with the adobe (or whatever that is)? It looks hot, dried out and reminds me of fingernails on a chalk board.

yep

I don't have a picture, but Easy Off FUME FREE oven cleaner works great on tile countertops and any and all things porcelain.

Does anybody remember that old urban myth about the woman that suddenly died and when they went to prepare her body for embalment and took her hair down that was always up in a bum, a nest of black widow spiders crawled out? I think of that everytime I see SJL. Blackwidow spider head.

I loved the Strawberry Patch!

Love her or hate her, and most hate her, she knows how to get the cameras, and she knows how to get the cameras on her issues. She gets s#!t done.

too hot to blog.

Lots of toxins in those grounds.
