I'm going to buy a Defend East Austin tote bag for when I go to Whole Foods!...
Is it my dream place to see a band? Well, of course not, because if I could have a band play my living room it would obviously be way better. As much as the sound is often muddy, the sight lines aren...
Mike, How do you figure that people don't save a bunch of money by not driving? I'm not disputing it, because my gut is that you are correct, but I am wondering if you have a sound argument....
Also, from Ken's very own website: "Ken doesn't oppose toll roads". I wouldn't go so far as to say he is "pro-toll road", but he's clearly not AGAINST them either....
Oh no, not the almighty "Have you run for a public office?" argument! That's like when musicians respond to a bad album review with "You've never ever been in a band!" Ha....
No one said Ken was stating a fact -- we are saying he doesn't KNOW the facts and, apparently, is too lazy/busy/disinterested/afraid of the Internet/whatever to find out the facts. Instead, he took t...
The Dick Cheney thing was a joke. A bad joke, but a joke. Har har har....
"From what Jennifer Kim has stated at several forum's - she stated that Las manitas owned the property. Ken got this information from Jennifer Kim herself. He never stated that this was factual inform...
To be fair, I met Ken in front of the Convention Center one evening. He seemed like a very nice guy who appeared to be inordinately concerned about changing street lights from incandescent to CFL bulb...
Ken has never changed his views on the issues since day one and I don't think that any other candidate in Place 3 can say that. Ken say's what he means and doesn't change his story a week later like s...
I liked Austin better when everyone was wearing loin clothes and carrying tomahawks. Nonetheless, her answers made me think I should vote for her!...
You don't even have to volunteer. I know people who get hired every year to work slinging beer and they get to hear every band on the stage nearest to them while earning a little $$$....
I would guess Explosions in the Sky is not playing because they will be broken up/on hiatus by then. Back in December, the band announced that June 2008 would be the end of any EITS shows for quite so...
i'm just waiting for Room 710 to demand equal coverage of their tugboat excursion down the sewage filled alley behind their club....
You're right. Liz Lambert is not helping matters because she's not giving away her condos for $1, nor is she hurting matters by charging $300-900k. The pool is remaining essentially static for people ...
LM, Sadly, the people you talk of (hard working poor people) continue to vote for the very people who cause these situations. While you are outraged at their living conditions, they are outraged at st...
I agree that the deletion of your SXSW column was censorship and now I understand your reaction to the deletion of the comments. And, I appreciate the fact that you actually give a shit about the (a...
Benj, I didn't think the removal of your article about SXSW was necessary, even though I thought some of it was petty (ie, I enjoy SXSW and don't really care what Louis Black does, nor do I necessaril...
Wait, so why did the Louis Black piece get pulled? ...
Obviously you can only use the "I don't know anything about this candidate, but I'm voting for him/her anyway" in determining the president. The same practice can't be used in selecting the Travis C...
