The leaders separated from the gutters from the water pressure. It makes the house look funny. Going into the city tomorrow. We are gonna try to "see" the Oak Room.

I must revise it!!<BR/><BR/>MoGo - Trust me, I've made that mistake more than a few times....<BR/><BR/>Writermama - I'm so sorry. The only boundary I'm talking about is one of pure laziness. Houston is a mental border for legions of lazy people up here. It is certainly no comment on the neighborhood. No one laughs more than my family over the name "East Village" - that name never existed in our lives until the mid 80's thanks to real estate moguls. It was always the lower east side - or living off of St. Marks Place.east village idiothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02030258480344283688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099114.post-1129166608035193142005-10-12T21:23:00.000-04:002005-10-12T21:23:00.000-04:00What a minute--Saki is a cover dog? Not that I'm ...What a minute--Saki is a cover dog? Not that I'm surprised, but what cover was he on? Italian Vogue? You know, the East Village is just a term real estate people made up in the late '50s to make it seem as palatable as teh West Village (at least that's what I've read), and that the whole area from Grand Street to 14th was called the Lower East Side. So don't go drawing boundaries around yourself that separate us!JThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05204273215290917463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099114.post-1129155538421436882005-10-12T18:18:00.000-04:002005-10-12T18:18:00.000-04:00Mmmmmm...empanadas.On one of our trips to the smal...Mmmmmm...empanadas.<BR/><BR/>On one of our trips to the small dog run at Carl Schurz Park (we didn't have a dog, but loved watching all of them play), I noticed a cute miniature American Eskimo. I peeked over the owner's shoulder and asked, "Ma'am, is that your dog?" The owner - apparently in the middle of transgender procedures - turned around and growled at me: "Yes."<BR/><BR/>Oops.Julie Marshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05386446012443269817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099114.post-1129150094737602092005-10-12T16:48:00.000-04:002005-10-12T16:48:00.000-04:00...do you mean not be around people who are dealin......do you mean not be around people who are dealing drugs and performing oral sex?
