I was going to try and make some plans on coming to the houston area on a vacation. Maybe for a weekend, maybe for a week. Need some help in where to stay and what to do. Looks like I will be flying in. Maybe getting a car or hitting someone up for a couch. will have to see how prices are out there. I am not use to the big city life and you guys' cost of living.
I am looking at coming May 13-16.

Ok so i've been messin with Bigjim350 ,i offered to buy the burger if he would eat it. (i have yet see someone eat it fully). He agreed and he also said he would want fry's too. So we just haven't come up with a date yet. And yes its free if you can eat it in under 2hrs. If you make it you get your name on the wall with a time along with your picture. The best time on the wall is 9mins:shocker:

That steak is 72 oz if I remember right. It's about the size of a large pizza about 2 inches thick.

Well I hate to be the bearer of bad news but Uncle Sam has once again stolen my funds. Between him and bills no wonder why my Dino-Heep is broken. I will one day make it out to see you guys but with the divorce and everything I am just not going to be able to make it. My wife is giving our other car to me because of the shape of the heep. Well she just told me that it is 2 months behind. Of course leave it to me to get it caught up. luckly there is less than $3k left on the loan and its paid off. So maybe later on in the year I will be able to make it out.

I really thought it was a bit ambitious to schedule a trip down here with all that was going on in your life. So many unknown financial things as well. Texas isn't going anywhere. Get stuff stable again!
