keep in mind though that there's a thing going around where illegal aliens are now stealing people's identities to take money, etc.
it's in her best interest to cancel/freeze anything and watch her credit report like a hawk for a while and houston is a hellhole -------------------- "Ah, y'know it's funny, these people they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good.

houston culture is definitely there but theres a DEFINITE sense of it being "underground". when a lot of scenes cease being that way people typically complain that they suck. so i think thats a good thing but its EASY to stumble into.
1 question: how many of you houstonians that complain about it ever toured the theater/museum district? a field trip in 8th grade to the MFA doesnt count. its AMAZING. 3rd best in the country (arguably the 2nd) i have made the trip from kw to first colony in under an hour at 7am several times. several times = every time i drove that trip. it was bumper to bumper once for less than 5 minutes around the medical district exit (i dont have any traffic complaints about 59) -------------------- Little monkeys making money

I go to the Museum District whenever they have something interesting (pretty often), but it does get old. I also have to drive to get there. Would be awesome if I could hop on a train and get there, I'd probably go more. It seems like you are trying to attack my "culture" which I don't understand. I appreciate culture and interesting things and off the wall things and go out of my way to find them. That's not my main complaint with Houston. My complaint is traffic and frivolous living in sprawling houses that are too big for people and the fact that we just keep building and building and building and then the buildings just stay empty (so much for that wonderful economy here). The 5 million people # includes suburbs, the actual population within Houston proper is much lower. A few more years and Houston will be annexing the Woodlands and Kingwood, then people will just move further! Woo hoo! A Houston-Dallas-Austin metropolis! Also, on your parks point, yeah, we have parks, but you have to drive to get to most of them. The closest park to my parent's house is at least a mile away. Now, most people would say that's tolerable, but no, not the people here. Everyday, the parking lot is full. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |
