GBA comments?

FYI: I think the latest round of unpleasantness over the Galveston Bay Area article is finally over.

I was trying to close out some of the issues that have kept coming up and permanently document the resolution. If you still have an interest in the article I would much appreciate your feedback on the talk page.

I'll check it out and see what I can add. Thanks! --Nsaum75 (talk) 21:32, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

someone should raise a complaint about you at /ani for your extremist jew & zionist editing and your attempts to deny arab culture by promoting zionist falsehoods! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Freilele (talk • contribs) 22:06, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Did I screw up?

Am I correctly interpreting PostOak's response as meaning he is angry? I made the suggestion actually after your comment and then he added his response after my suggestion. Even if I had made the suggestion after his response I'm not sure why that was offensive. I don't think I implied a criticism.

Am I dense?

P.S. Maybe I should have removed the location info sooner so that it wouldn't have turned into a long debate. --Mcorazao (talk) 22:30, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Hmmm I don't think so -- I see he went back and changed his edit to include a smile. But I can see where you might have gotten that concern from the original post. Misunderstandings are all too common in this purely "text-based" medium. Cheers --Nsaum75 (talk) 01:28, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

No, you didn't screw up and I wasn't pissed, but it sure looked that way. I apologize. Postoak (talk) 01:39, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

CLC brochure

Also, check out the couple riding their bicycles in front of the Piggly Wiggly...lol, I forgot that we even had these stores in Houston. They would get their butts run over now riding around and smiling like that. A 900 seat movie theater? Postoak (talk) 01:39, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, will check it out. BTW, the theater out in CLC was the "Clear Lake Theater" [1] (wonder why they called it that). Also, check out the links at Talk: East End, Houston where I was having a conversation with myself about the Ford Motor Company plant located there. I never knew this.

Memories, and yes I'm getting old also. Things change so much. I grew up in Willow Meadows, Houston; we had this incredible shopping center located south of us on Belfort known as Westbury Square (it is briefly mentioned here in Westbury, Houston) that looked like a small village in Europe.[2]. I found these images the other day...I miss this place! Postoak (talk) 02:28, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

In the Houston freeways document link you gave me, there is a great pic of Buffalo Stadium. Postoak (talk) 03:11, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Yep, fast and furious, but appears to have quieted down. Did you have a worm in your bottle? Postoak (talk) 06:21, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

ugh, that's appetizing. remind me not to order tacos, please. :) Postoak (talk) 06:34, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Well, it looks good if you were to stand several feet away from it, or were moderately inebriated. Is it dangerous to eat it? Postoak (talk) 06:54, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Texas Oil Boom

Hey, I have a draft of Texas Oil Boom done. There are some areas that I wanted to address more but I was having trouble finding good sources for some of these things.

Anyway, if you are interested I was curious to get feedback on how it stands at the moment. I went ahead and put out a Peer Review. I will probably continue to enhance as I do more reading ...

Not sure if you have seen this...but I thought the photos were interesting. --Nsaum75 (talk) 08:24, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Cool. Wish we could use the photos. --Mcorazao (talk) 14:42, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
