You mean that the Bus Cops are actually gonna do something useful?

I saw a new poster at a board I frequent who goes by the name TexasIslander. I asked if she was in Galveston, and, if so, was she a BOI

PBS is Left, and is getting more and more Lefter.

I remember the two on the way to Beaumont. And, although I don

Aside from the obvious

I was driving up 187 on the east side of Austin a few weeks ago, and I saw a sign for Bluebonnet Parkway, also know as Hwy290. When did that happen?

Although 290 seems like a logical choice for using that name, my feeling is that 71 from Columbus to Austin deserved consideration, given the fact there are more bluebonnets along 71 that 290.

LOL you better hope that they are women and not teenaged girls.

My biggest fear is making a date with one of these women, and when I go to meet them, Chris Hanson answers the door.

if you'd like a refresher, head to the happy go lucky on telephone@broad. we went last summer and it is surprising places like that with madames, etc still exist.

Uh, thanks, but no thanks. I don't drink anymore, and I don't go to bars to meet women. I am older, and much more conservative, now. I prefer meeting women in more traditional ways - I go to online chatrooms.

Was the Vagabond Club at the Vagabond Motel on 45?

That's the one, Subdude. As aggressive as some of the ladies were at the club, I often wondered if some of them didn't have a long-term rental on a room there.

Vertigo, I lived and worked near Hobby Airport in the late 70s, and that's when I went to Yesterday. I think there were a number of "swingers" who hung out there, but I wasn't interested in that scene. And that was back in my drunking days, and my memories are a bit fuzzy on the details of the place.

I

Reminds me of a bit of bathroom graffiti I once saw.

"My mother made me a homosexual."

Underneath, and in a different handwriting was,

"If I sent her some material, could she make me one too?"

There was a Minimax across the street from Reagan that was our

Cecilia is very likable. The interview I saw of her had her mother as well, and I fell head over heels for her mom. What a nice lady. Bofum!

When the first system moved through here early Monday morning, I got about 8

I spent many an hour there at Talley

Looking down and seeing the deck of the aircraft carrier just below me while the plane sat still, and then three seconds later, seeing nothing but water below while the plane was doing about 160. Since I was facing backwards on the COD, I could just see the carrier behind us getting farther and farther away.

I saw a personal piece on her some time back. I seem to recall that she has a special needs child. Perhaps that has something to do with it?

My transcendental meditation, I go there each night,

But I always come back to myself long before daylight.

Coog, I didn't do TM, rather Silva. My place was "The Window" at Big Bend.

When I go to Garner in my mind, I can still hear "Blackland Farmer" playing at The Pavilion.

Just another case of a bunch of buttheads prodding authorities into taking acting against them, then suing over the actions taken.

I stand by my comments.

While I don

I fondly remember the murals inside Union Station, most likely from a WPA project. Also, they had a great model train layout on one of the upper floors that was open to the public. My dad took me to see it numerous times as a kid.

BTW, the items on the train were selected from the Smithsonian, or were destined to reside there after the tour.

The shoes were probably Bob Lanier's. I think he wore a size 22 or something like that. They also had John Havlicek's green Converse tennies from his Celtics days.

My favorite exhibit was Archie Bunker's chair.

So, will the new CVS be across the street from the new Walgreens, or cattycorner from it?

The Kroger at 11th and Shepherd, where we usually shop, isn't nearly as nice.

It's all relative, I suppose. The Kroger at Merchant's Park (11th @ Shepherd) is 1000 times nicer than the Kroger that was there previously. But then, that older Kroger was still operating in the footprint of the Henke and Pilot that was there originally. The newest renovation at least doubled the size of the store.
