houstonsemipro Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 Did you know about 20 years ago Yasser Arafat son built an $30 million dollars home in river oaks. My dad and other crews helped him to move boxes in the new home. Arafat son had his on crew to help build the house 24-7. Neighbors was complaining about the noise at night while they work. Arafat's son bought out the complaining neighbors for $1 million dollars.This is why Houston is so international. Houston is ranked #1 in texas for the best international city, and #3 in america behind New York and L.A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
