I agree with you about Houston. Talk about a sprawling nasty city. Worse drivers in the world and constant traffic. We won't even talk about the crime there. UGLY is definitely the word for Houston.

My clearest memory of Houston was Christmas day, years ago.

It was raining. And steam was coming off the blacktop.

I have lived in Midland now for years. Almost dried out.

I can't agree. One of the worst times I ever had on a freeway was in Maryland. I thought Texas drivers were pretty bad until I visited back east. I mean, here, people wave after they cut you off. No such courtesy exists elsewhere. :)

I don't know where you go in Houston but many areas of Houston are very pretty. Not the freeways--but when you get off.

The crime rate is down.

Traffic is getting better, as is crime, now that we have a mayor who's worth more than a bucket of warm snot.

And besides, I'm in Houston . . . that's gotta hotten it up some!
