    Winedale Tavern on Greenville Avenue closed, to become Single Wide

    Everything changes - nothing lasts

    Another shadow lost in the midst of our possible pasts

    The faces, voices, music echoes deep

    Songs of youth now gravestones piled on the heap

    Hijinks, antics, indiscretions of yore

    Idle times, meandering conversations that bore

    The pants of youth, doomed to repeat ...

    Evermore.

    Top 9 biggest restaurant news stories in Dallas-Fort Worth in 2010

    I would like to initiate a new trend in D/FW dining, which is an old New Jersey culinary experience - <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beefsteak_%28banquet%29">beefsteak banquets</a>

    The only thing more surprising than Steve Blow's horrible attempt at humor today is that the DMN hasn't obliterated it from the InterWebs

    The problem with Steve Blow's blog post is that for one minute he thought he was Bill Maher, who writes stuff like this all the time. But it's Bill Maher's job to be tasteless in his satire, so you expect that kind of stuff from him. Steve Blow's job is to be bland not tasteless, you see. So Steve is now in so much hot water you can serve him in a bun with sauerkraut and onions and deli mustard. That's another thing, Bill Maher is a hot dog who knows a thing or two about being grilled over an open flame and Steve Blow is nuthin' but an overcooked wiener that's a little past its time.

    Favoriting contest: Alegria, Cirque du Soleil

    I wish their 3-D movie, Journey of Man would make a return engagement, that was a terrific spectacle.

    Dallas writing tickets if you park wrong way on two-way street

    Oh, I got a ticket for that very offense in 1990. cost me $45. the officer issues ticket at their own discretion. I was the only vehicle parked on July Alley on a Monday night, it was advised I pay the ticket and not fight it in court, not worth cost of losing.

    Favoriting contest: The Pogues / Justin Townes Earle at House of Blues Friday

    A million years ago at the KISS tribute show at Trees, I remember the highlight being the appearance of a Pogues tribute band, alluding to original name Pogue Mahone, as in Kiss My Ass.

    Guilty verdicts in Dallas City Hall corruption case

    Shocked - shocked - amazed - stunned - blink - blink - a crooked politician *didn't* walk ?

    There are no more first drafts in news

    You mean stick head someplace else, don't you? Probably the third option.

    Audio interview with artist Peter Max, coming to Dallas Sept. 12-13

    I want to point out Peter Max had NOTHING to do with the art direction or design in the film <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_Submarine_%28film%29">Yellow Submarine</a>, the designs and ideas were by the late great <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_Edelmann">Heinz Edelmann</a>.

    Video interview and photo gallery: White Rock Lake spillway project in Dallas

    The beavers and herons have informed me they appreciate the effort but could the guys hurry it up a bit?

    Big metal sculpture near Cowboys Stadium to be funded by Arlington professor, philanthropist

    How did I know that Prof. Allan Saxe was behind this? I remember when he received a half million dollar inheritance and had trouble giving it away. Anyway, kudos to the star of the parody of the late Michael Jackson's Thriller ,*"Clucker"*!

    Dallas Mayor Tom Leppert discreetly puts Preston Hollow home on the market

    Motivated buyer off the books, so the feds don't clip Nicky Sheets commission. Meanwhile, Leppert is preparing to dump other assets, too. Something very interesting could be going on. It'll make salacious reading I'm sure (or viewing during the sweeps). It's great fun to be a Republican, ain't it?

    Sambuca in Addison closing down on Saturday, June 27

    I do miss Calvin, he was a gentleman and one of the people that helped give Deep Ellum character. And those massive hands. We both did an episode of Walker, Texas Ranger (not same episode). Good times. Man, we need a new hit teevee show shot full time in Dallas.

    Documentary review: Before the Music Dies recognizes ‘good music’ for what it is

    Problem - most people have no idea what is or where to find good music and rely on default mode - hit radio, American Idol, MTV and even the Internet. Pandora is great, if your taste is a wide palette but what if it is Britney Spears, Ashley Simpson, Nick Lashea and Jonas Brothers?

    Mythbusters: Lock your keys in your car?

    I miss my old blue Daihatsu - it was the easiest car to break into - my bad habit was locking the keys in the car while they were in the ignition while the car was running - the dang thing was that quiet - you could break in by the butterfly window, rather quickly.

    Movie review: Up

    Right at the end - the scrapbook pictures of Russel and Carl. Did see Up on Friday at North Park and finally saw Partly Cloudy - My Fair Lady KeLaine said it was the first Pixar short she cried at - nice effort by Peter Sohn, who is certainly making quite a mark at Pixar.

    Dallas pop-up book artist to show off work at Dallas Museum of Art

    Last Thursday, my fair lady and myself wondered why there was all those pop-up books in the museum store. We'll check out the demo today.
