I too made the mistake of going to Galveston on kappa weekend to visit some friends. On the beach it was fine but when you got up to the seawall it had turned into hardy street. The locals on the strand said to leave before the sun went down. They made it sound like we were in Transylvania.

Quote:

HOUSTON, Texas One of the three suspects might be laughing in a surveillance clip, but alleged victims from at least six locations say there's nothing funny about being held up at possible gunpoint.
Houston Police say one suspect threatened violence as he placed his hand in a blue backpack.
Seconds later, the trio cleaned out the cash register at a Wendy's on Rankin.


Quote:

A Cricket store also on Tidwell was robbed too, despite having controlled access. But the employee inside at the time told us the suspects didn't look threatening at first. Sadly, it was the second time she'd been robbed.
The same crew is suspected of robbing a Family Dollar on Orlando near the Eastex Freeway as well. That's in addition to a locally owned bakery and second fast food joint.


Quote:

Police said the suspects appear to be teens or young adults.


Hurry up, cops. Arrest them so Sean Teare can turn them loose.

On the next episode of Home Improvement:

Quote:

Around the same time, deputies were informed by a man, who was a witness, that there was a body at a home in the 4100 block of Tim Allen Ct.
Quote:

Detectives have learned that the man found dead was a contractor who had been working at the home of the suspect. There was some sort of incident between the suspect and the contractor and the contractor was ultimately killed.
I guess that makes the perp the Last Man Standing.

Let those of us who hasn't wanted to kill a contractor cast the first stone.

RIP St. Floyd mural


Quote:

HOUSTON Demolition in the Third Ward has removed a portion of what's become known as the Ennis art block. Murals, including one of George Floyd, are now just rubble and some worry that this will further erase the community's history.
Quote:


At the height of the 2020 protests, the building at Elgin and Ennis drew visitors and artistic talent. And for some, it's a shock to see it gone.

Third Ward drew visitors?

Quote:

"Preservation helps us know what came before us," she said. "When I give tours up and down Emancipation Avenue, I have to talk about buildings that are no longer there. I have to talk about businesses that are no longer there."

Gentrification is a top concern, with some wondering if these mural-covered buildings will make way for high priced condos or townhomes.

Third Ward tours? Man. I've been missing out

You know what other major street you can walk down in Houston and talk about the buildings that are no longer there and the businesses that are no longer there? EVERY DAMN ONE OF THEM.

Ah, yes, the gentrification complaint.

Austin saw this on the east side.

First they cried "white flight!!!" when people moved away and then a decade or two later, gentrification begins and nice new stuff takes the place of old run down buildings, and it's "ZOMG!!! Gentrification is pricing us out of our neighborhood!"

Do they want people to just exist forever in old dilapidated buildings that have outlived their useful life and don't meet any kind of modern codes?

Here's one for ya.

Dude orders a fake plate and cruises the toll roads every day. Turns out the fake is a duplicate of a real plate, which is racking up a lot of charges.

Dude with fake plate says he has already been pulled over for his fake plate a few times. KTRK reached out to the faker and he wondered if the guy with the real plate would consider changing his plate.

Good Lord man. The balls on that guy.

Bolivar Peninsula The Galveston County Sheriff's Office Sunday afternoon revealed that 275 arrests have taken place on the Bolivar Peninsula during Jeep Weekend 2025an event that's been much quieter than previous years.

Officials said the 275 arrests involve 278 misdemeanor charges and 52 felony charges.
Galveston County 1 - Jeep Weekenders 0

They laid the wood to the Jeep folk.

Gave em the old 'doncha come back now ya hear?'

GCo got its bag but the local business, not so much.

Can't have it both ways; pick one.

Really I need to know how late and over budget the project was before we can settle if justified.

After joking about Houston becoming Chicago, its happened.



https://abc13.com/post/southside-place-police-say-scammers-chicago-have-come-texas-stealing-money-fake-story-childs-death/16500479/

Quote:

"All of them have criminal histories as long as my arm in Chicago," Detective Scott Ashmore said. "What they've been doing is preying on women in parking lots."

The victim, who asked to remain anonymous, said she was approached outside a shopping center in the 3800 block of Bellaire on May 15.

"The first one said, 'Oh, I really like your necklace,' and then the next one came up and said, 'Could you help us, please?'" she recalled.

They showed her a flyer advertising the "James Hoover Funeral Fund" and described what police suspect to be a fictional tragedy involving a young boy with autism who had been shot. When she offered $15 in cash, they pushed instead for her credit card, which they later used to attempt a $5,000 purchase.
