    Too bad it's not that way in the eyes of NBA free agents.

    So basically... we're cool not because of anything we did, but rather because of the fact that the rest of the nation is poor and busted.

    It's like being the least popular kid in school, but everybody else suddenly gets fatter and uglier than you already are.

    King for a day, my friends.

    The Colorado River (aka Lady Bird Lake, aka Town Lake) is a raging torrent of tears. I promise.

    Outside of Forbes, Houston is the most underrated city in America.

    Houston's the last place I would consider cool. Austin is cooler than Houston.

    saw the article earlier in the evening. Knew someone would post it. It's going to turn into am Austin vs Houston match real quick with a few cameos from Baqui telling us about San Francisco. Just how it is.
