Bullseye

In my opinion, These are the coolest five sentences I've seen in print here in Houston in a long, long time. This statement couldn't be more on the mark. These words come from Olivia Flores Alvarez of The Houston Press.

The waitresses are chatting in Russian. The food is Italian. There's a group of Argentineans in the corner, talking Spanish at full-speed. And Texan Tianna Hall is on stage singing classic American jazz, backed by a Norwegian guitarist and a Lebanese drummer. Yeah, this is Houston.

Very cool description of Houston. Sounds just like home here in DC

BTW, Greg, I've deleted my sorry ass blog, b/c one, I never post, two, too many people that know me personally read my blog and I therefore couldn't write personally anymore. I'll keep stopping by here and don't hesitate to drop my a line if you want. My email is still desultorybutterfly at yahoo.

Big hugs, bro,
Allie

Nice to hear from you Allie. After several days of trying to log in to DB, I realized you had taken it down. That's the only reason I did the same in my links.

I completely understand why you did what you did. I hope you're doing well. I'll be in touch.
