I know it, and I'm finally starting to come to grips with it. When I first saw the sticker, a little voice inside my head said "don't look back, you can never look back."

And when you are interviewing with them, you can say that while your DeVry University degree isn't the best, at least you have a big dick.
If that work were anything but tenative...or even for the purpose of mere budgeting...don't you think we'd have press releases telling us about impending ground breaking?
Okay, let's get this over with.... Don Henley - Boys Of Summer Lyrics Nobody on the road, nobody on the beach. I feel it in the air, the summers out of reach Empty lake, empty streets, the sun goes down alone. I'm driving by your house though i know that you're not home... And i can see you your brown skin shining in the sun you got your hair combed back sunglasses on baby and i can tell you my love for you will still be strong after the boy of summer have gone. out on the road today i saw a dead head sticker on a Cadillac a voice inside my head said don't look back you can never look back i thought i knew what love was what did i know those days are gone for ever i should just let them go and... i can see you your brown skin shining in the sun you know your walking real slow smiling at everyone i can tell you my love for you will still be strong after the boys of summer have gone. I never will forget those nights i wonder if it was a dream remember how you drove me crazy? remember how i made you scream? now i don't understand what happened to our love now baby gonna get you back gonna show you what I'm made of... i can see you your brown skin shining in the sun you got your top pulled down, radio on baby and i can tell you my love for you will still be strong after the boys of summer have gone.
Of course it wouldnt advance with McLady involved. Talking all kinds of BIG talk to media, making promises and not BACKING it up. McLazy didnt do any activity over the summer. Can't even get this going past the first ROUND, what else would we expect
Remembering Fame City and Games People Play. I know people remember Fame City, but does anybody remember GPP? I think it was off of 1960...go karts, video games, putt putt...and the three slides. Remember the one that had the big hanging saw and it looked like you were going to slide into it but you dropped right before? Ahhhh...nostalgia.
I remember GPP on 1960. We used to always get into trouble for some demolition derby action with the go-karts. Sometimes we'd go down that slide with the big saw, stop in the middle there and climb out of the slide, then harass everyone else as they came through that section. Those are some good memories, but that place became a s***hole in a hurry it seemed like.
I missed this gem of an update back in June. I'm sorry for letting you all down with failing to deliver breaking news regarding this very imminent and exciting project. http://www.yourhoustonnews.com/courier/news/article_a06074b3-10c7-5466-b1f4-83946d4baedd.html .Posted: Wednesday, June 22, 2011 12:16 am The developer of the proposed Earth Quest project in east Montgomery County has established another deadline for start-up of the 550-acre mixed-use project. Christopher Brown, president of California-based Contour Entertainment, the project’s master planner and lead designer, met with the East Montgomery County Improvement District board members June 16. Before Brown and the board went into executive session to discuss the project, EMCID President Frank McCrady asked Brown if groundbreaking within nine months was a “reasonable” expectation. “That is our plan,” said Brown. Estimated at a cost of $500 million, Earth Quest is to include a retail shopping experience, a water park, a hotel and a family entertainment center located on 1,600 acres along U.S. 59 between FM 1485 and Texas 242 on the west side, and FM 1485 and Roman Forest Boulevard on the east. At the heart of the concept is a 150-acre dinosaur theme park and museum. They were scheduled to open sometime this year or in 2012. Brown said the dinosaur project remains “central” to the development’s project. We’re not going to put another carnival on the ground,” McCrady said after the EMCID meeting. “Nothing significant has changed.” Announcing a date for groundbreaking is nothing new for the Earth Quest project. Construction was to start sometime in 2010, but a need for investors and the economy affected the timetable. At least one of the investors involved is an independent investment banking group based in Texas, Brown said. “It’s better to shop for money and generate better returns,” McCrady said. “They (the developers) have been waiting for the economy to come around. The Texas market has started to stabilize.” 2012 budget: EMCID board members authorized a balanced budget of $5.752 million for the 2012 fiscal year that begins July 1, 2011 and ends June 30, 2012. The budget includes a record $5.1 million in sales tax revenue. Among the budget items approved include $698,000 for Emergency Services District No. 6, $533,000 for ESD No. 7 and $100,000 for ESD No. 11. EMCID set aside $250,000 for community development grants and $600,000 for its scholarship program. EMCID budgeted $190,000 for Earth Quest, $70,000 less for the project in the 2011 fiscal year. Pay bonus: EMCID President/CEO Frank McCrady was voted a $50,000 bonus for the 2012 fiscal year at the June 16 board meeting. He receives a base salary $97,515. Connie Bloodworth was the lone board member to vote against McCrady’s bonus. “It was just my personal reasons,” Bloodworth said.
