No idea what that means

you mean Ebola City?

I ain't skeered of no Ebola.


In town for a conference. Third time in Dallas in the last 4 months. I might be an honorary Texan or something,

I always end up at the Sheraton downtown when I am in Dallas or I get stuck out in yuppie hell which is Grapevine, Tx

Hilton Anatole on Stemmons.

I did stay at the Adolphus one time for a wedding. Very cool hotel

I will get to Dallas sometime in the next few years to see the stadium. As an Eagles fan, I'll just hold my nose. But the place looks sick.

Dallas is a waste of time. Spent many days there making my fortune. It sucks.

Fortune. Heh.

Anyway, I like Dallas okay. I like Austin much more and San Antonio a good bit more, but Dallas is fine.

I like San Antonio , then Austin, can't say I've been to Houston for any length of time. West Texas is a shithole.

Dallas is alright - just never took with me.

The Austin music scene is, as the kids say, the bomb. The SA Riverwalk and Alamo stuff are very cool, though. Dallas has always reminded me of a dusty, brown Atlanta- which I like well enough.

yea, I'd probably feel a little old in Austin at this point - although I love the Continental Club there.

Oh no, I didn't feel old. Great jazz clubs and my age was probably median there. Now, the techno electro dance stuff? Yeah, a bit pervy. But a lot of those girls are aggressive and seem to seek out the older guy. At least if he is wearing tailored shirts, a Rolex, and a pair of Tom Ford loafers.



...or so I've heard...

Agree with all of this...

AA...hello

Hello, how are you?

Very good...what do you know of Birmingham Southern?

A good, small liberal arts school in a very bad area of Bham. Academics are very good. College life, maybe not so much.

Why?

They are showing interest in my son for baseball...nice campus, not Samford, but nice...
