Working in downtown Dallas for the past 7+ years, I’ve grown quite familiar with the city’s underground tunnel network. Until recently, I felt like this was Dallas’ best kept secret. We need to make this place more walkable, but everyone knows that can be a bitch during the summer months. The tunnels and skybridges …

Tonight, my office hosted a summer picnic of sorts at the Dallas Arboretum, which included passes to the “Chihuly Nights” exhibit. As someone not familiar with the work of Dale Chihuly, I had very low expectations for the exhibit, but came away, as I often do at the arboretum, very impressed. Below are just a …

At first glance, you might not think my hometown–the tiny East Texas hamlet of Atlanta (pop. 5,745)–and my adopted hometown, the affluent Dallas enclave University Park, would have much in common, but believe it or not, living in the Park Cities affords residents many of the treats of small-town living. I lived in the heart …

If you asked me to pick one drawback to living in Texas, the only thing I could point to is our extreme weather. Ironically, “extreme weather” is # 12,634 on my “Million Reasons I Love Texas” as well, because you just haven’t lived until you’ve experienced a summer like the Summer of 2011. Of course, …

I love the Rangers, but hate to drive. Since I live in University Park, just north of downtown Dallas, this means I attend very few Rangers games at the Ballpark in Arlington, 25 miles away. To me, the reward (see my Texas Rangers play in person) is not worth headaches associated with driving (i.e. traffic, …

The calendar reads November 1, 2011, which means tonight I should be heading down to the American Airlines Center for opening night of Mavs basketball. While Opening Night in the NBA may not carry the same cachet as Opening Day in Major League Baseball, it’s still a special time on the sports calendar, so much …

Sounds like the start of a great joke doesn’t it? For those of us living in reality, the answer is rather obvious–two hucksters who were masters at brainwashing a gullible section of the population. Today, most normal people look at those suckered by Hubbard and shake their head. How could anyone actually believe that crap? …

As someone who has had the opportunity to attend baseball games in some of the most historic parks (Wrigley, Fenway, and the old Yankee Stadium just to name a few), I’ve always dreamed of the day Dallas gets their downtown park and the excitement that comes along with it. Imagine being able to sneak out …

If you followed my advice in the previous post, you have booked your flight to Love Field and a room at a hotel in the downtown/Uptown area. Even if you chose to fly into D/FW, let’s hope you heeded my advice on the hotels and are staying in Dallas proper, as opposed to some far …

On March 19, it was sunny and 71 in Dallas. On March 20, 2010, we received 1.3 inches of snow. Yes, that’s right, the first day of Spring brought SNOW to Dallas. This brings the total snowfall for this season to 17.3 inches and barely misses breaking the all-time seasonal record for the Dallas/Fort Worth …
