I just have a hard time spending money on non-tangeable items. I hate spending a bunch of money on something and not having anything to show for it afterwards. The exception to that is food, I may be cheapass but I eat GOOD! Which reminds Mr I need to pick up some ribs for this weekend

The only.place I've been that didn't have humidity was the panhandle and that place is so damn boring no way I'd live out there. Austin is usually only 10-20% lower than Houston which disappointed me, I was expecting it to be much less. From time to time we do get down in the 20-30% range when a front moves through. It's crazy how big a difference humidity makes it feel outside.

Damn man, you say some of the the funniest sh#@ I have read on this sight. What makes it so funny is I always think the same thing a few posts back and I then, what do you know. LMAO Even when you flamed on me a few months back I had to laugh.

yeah I'm overweight and I'd crush you like a grape!
the only reason Dallas kind of sucks is it only gets a pecentage of the humidity that Houston does. and that sucks 100%

Did Houston get a new football team? I hadnt noticed - how big is your stadium?
I'm Fine with DFW

now if they can fix the border and expell the illegals
well that will never happen

I wouldnt call 6' 165 overweight by any means. Im a construction inspector and have to be out in that **** quite a bit so Id rather not deal with it as much. When it gets too bad I can always retreat to the office or my company truck but the humidity is just one of many reasons Ill probably never live there again.

I do miss offshore fishing all the time though

I applaud those who are man enough to work outside in Houston all year. I put myself through college as a pipefitter and welder, at the refineries here. Outside in nomex suits all day - that sucked.

But, I didn't complain about the humidity like a pansy.

The humidity can really make for some bad hair days. Some times, the spike on the shorter side of my part wants to flatten down. I have to use extra Aqua Net.

I definitely know the feeling. I worked freeway construction for a summer after I graduated high school. Wearing a sweater, towel on your head, and a hard hate made it horrible. I pretty much made an overnight decision to go to college.

Dallas came in 4th place, we can't be that bad! How do Dallas people wanna be like Houston?

Why do Houston rappers throw a Texas longhorn sign, just wondering?

Let the thrashing begin lol.....

Who taught the world how to dougie lol

Agreed longhorns are cool.

Houston rap scene has died down though. I wish scarface, bun b, z-ro or trae would drop something new. The Swangers and sizzurp **** is played out.
