Back in the "good ol' days", when you went to Athens Bar and Grill, they would check you for weapons at the door. If they didn't find any, they issued you one!

You could have another Anna Nicole Smith as your tenant.

The roundabout on Kelly crossing US59 was a death trap! I hated that damned thing. The one at Gulf Freeway was bad until they put the lights in. There was and may still be one on the south end of Washburn Tunnel. I didn't mind that one for some reason. Seems like it was much larger than the others.

Gosh...all this thread needs now is somebody playing a fife in the background.

I hope somebody gets that one....

Wrong day, JM. The fife didn

Coog, I got on here specifically to see if someone remembered what this day was. Much appreciation for your post.

However, you forgot the other thing we

I used to live across the tracks (literally) from CG on 11th and Bay Oaks. Many a New Year

There was a report last night that many jazz musicians are leaving town because the little dive joints that once featured jazz now play R&R because it is favored by customers. Even street jazz musicians are becoming a rarity there.

This post title had me thinking of a different solution before I read the whole post. I was gonna suggest you get better running shoes to help your cat chase that dog!

My mom picked me up and we went over to Love to get my cousin...probably saw you there...what a hoot!

There are a few Steak and Ale restaurants still at their original locations. I think they have very good food, and the salad bar is one of my all-time favorites.

Don't need any link because that day is etched in my memory. I was in Mrs. Tillinghast

Today, the guy that did my inspection on my house in Inwood sent me a email saying: Just FYI, there was an article in a local free paper this week that the I.F. golf course has been sold to an outfit that buys struggling courses and turns them around. This paper is not on the web. There wasn't anything about it in the Chronicle
