Holly Street neighborhood should not have bitched about Power Plant if they wanted ridiculously cheap lakeside property. Shocking that lakeside property is increasing value. Shocking....

Austin's average age is the youngest in Texas. Has the highest proportion of college students to general population of any large Texas city. I"m sure the fact that we are the tech-savviest city and t...

And we have good public transport downtown. It's everywhere else that we don't have it. The belief that Austin doesn't have good public transportation is nonsense. It's quite good for the number of s...

On June 12, 2008 10:02 AM in Letter From Will Wynn Re: Energy Audit Ordinance, they said:

They're both pandering on this issue to the fear mongers. I also think this should be mandatory. It's much easier to roll the cost of a new air conditioning into a mortgage than it is to find the cash...

Why isn't Mr. Pretty Hair himself on your poll? Seems like he'd be the top of my "persons of interest" list....

On June 10, 2008 11:09 AM in Concert Review: The Cure Brood With Fire & Purpose At AMH, they said:

I've got to say. It's pretty rare to see a band outplay the audience. The audience was whipped by the heat in the Austin Music Hall and 3 hours of standing had taken its toll, but the band seemed read...

On May 27, 2008 7:43 PM in Extra Extra: It's a Magic Number, they said:

Huh. I used to work at that Steel Mill. Burned the skin off my ears on the first day because they didn't provide me with the mandatory ear muffs. Glad I didn't stay there....

I've definitely noticed people driving less. There was no one on the roads this past weekend....

You forgot that rich kids also don't go to jail for drug possession. Which makes the illegal part of "illegal drugs" a bit of a misnomer....

On May 6, 2008 1:19 PM in Austinist Reviews: Speed-the-Plow, they said:

I enjoyed the play quite a bit. <theater-geek-digression>But I doubt Mamet would have liked it. This production made his language quite natural, and it's my understanding that he likes it perf...

Oh, the sexual abuse was only by older boys in the FLDS compound? In that case, carry on....

Loaded Gun Theory (my company) had the first show in the space, back when it had no air-conditioning. We'll sorely miss it if it goes....

On April 24, 2008 10:59 AM in Extra Extra: Hot and Heavy, they said:

Free shuttles aren't completely useless. Remember, that pretty much every person a shuttle is one less person on the road. It may see imperceptable, but it's probably a real impact (even if the bus st...

Good grief. Just drive through Travis Heights and you can see how bad McMansion is. Now all the new remodels have weird towers jutting out of the center. Is the character of the neighborhood bell towe...

On April 21, 2008 12:02 PM in Better Know a Candidate: Ken Weiss, they said:

Man, you guys should re-title this series, "Better Know a Neighborhood Association Sycophant". Are any of the candidates pro-growth? Anyone anti-growth but pragmatic? Are any of them aware of how our...
