Dallas mayor’s church of choice causing flap in LGBT circles
Sorry Colleen, that's not much of a substantial argument. You're still a lobbyist- trying to sway a politician to lean your way for political reasons.

Colleen- I'm not a fan of the guy by any means, but what gives you or 'the lgbt folks' the right to tell anyone where they should or should not go to church?
I agree all church-is politics, but does anyone tell you where to go?

Those of you who have been friends of Pearl for a while might remember a phenomenal local player that performed at our grand opening! Kirby Kelley was just crowned Guitar Center's "2009 King of the Blues" !! Congratulations Kirby!!
Damn, we'll never be able to afford to book him again now! :-)

Lane closures on Woodall Rodgers Freeway continue for Deck Park construction
DC- the problem with another park is that it will do nothing for retail business in downtown Dallas. You know, that 'revitalizing' thing they like to talk about.
In the long run parks won't do anything for downtown but give the street-folk a nice place to stay.
With a population that is so spread out over many sq miles, parks won't attract people to the area- shopping, clubs, and restaurants will. People don't spend bucks in Uptown because of the parks in the area.
A much better use of the money spent on this park or the one on Main St. might have been tax breaks or other incentives to enable small retail businesses to set up shop downtown.
But what do I know? -

I'm all for equality across the board, but c'mon. How far is the rest of the world expected to bend over to accept gays in society? Yes, I meant to say it that way.
It would seem to me that just being gay might be stressful enough in this up-tight society, but to try to be religious too? Talk about a pain in the ass!

Religion is politics with even worse consequences for choosing the wrong side.

Live music events in Dallas-Fort Worth, November 5-8
For a city the size of Dallas, you've gotten rather short and selective in your inclusions of "Live music events in Dallas-Fort Worth, November 5-8"?

20 things that would make Downtown Dallas better
Dallas loves to shop! Bring more retail downtown and keep more revenue downtown.
Free meter parking on the weekends would help considering the unethical business practices of many commercial lots.
Many of the article's suggestions are taken from European spots. Sorry- this is Dallas. Dallas will never be Paris. Walking hand-in-hand with your date on any downtown Dallas street is not romantic.

Pro Sports- what would we do without it? Maybe get some things done? Maybe raise the IQ a notch or two?

Some people don't want their kids to hear a live message from the president of our country, encouraging them to do well in school. "They don't want their children to be indoctrinated"..... wtf!!!! The idiocracy has begun!!
This is too funny- I might have kept my kids from listening to G.W., but that would be because I would want them to learn proper English.

Inaugural Taste of Greenville Avenue event coming to Greenville Avenue on October 24
"Toga, toga, toga!" Yeah, it's a fortunate acronym op, but it's the party attitude that has been the catalyst for the death of lower Greenville Avenue. Weird that way!

Texas Slim and the Love Machine
Slim played Sunday at Pearl for the KNON Chile Party. What an exceptional player he is and what energy he brings to the stage! Texas Slim is for my money, one of the very best blues acts anywhere. Catch him if you can.

New Texas law says kids up to age 8 must ride in car seats
Hey, if you bounce out of the bed of your dad's pick up, it's not like he's just lost his best pit bull. You deal with the loss and move on.

Keller man shoots neighbor in fight over dog, bullet also hits man's wife
It's the same little soap-opera stories folks have been living out for centuries. Desperately trying to prove to ourselves that we actually can live among our own kind.

Yeah, if my neighbor shot me over my dog barking (although that can be irritating) I would hope that my neighbor's neighborhood would change to a prison.
I'm tellin' ya, sports fanaticism is way out of control in this country. -
