Rockwall is close to Dallas.

"My grandpa used to tell creepy stories of ghosts he saw around the San Antonio area (of course, they might have been tequila-inspired)."


There are many, many ghosts in and around SA. I may have a tle or two... ;-)

The Aggies may be fixin' to lose. Iowa State just scored again.

Late to the thread but here's my contribution...

Several years ago my mother woke up in the middle of the night and saw a bright light at the bedroom door. The light stayed for a few seconds and then faded away. She woke my dad up but he told her to go back to sleep. The next morning he went to check on my grandmother (his mom) who lived next door. She had passed away during the night.

I've seen the Cadillacs buried tail-up, and I've been in the creepy Oakwood Cemetery

Just south of Saint Jo, up in Montague County, there is another example of automotive art in a field. Somebody has painted eight VW bugs orange, with black spots, and placed them in a field...as if they were ladybug decoys.

The Devil's Backbone near Wimberly is reportedly one of the most haunted areas in Texas.

The Aggies took a dirt nap today but it was no surprise. Carl Torbush is about a lousy defensive coordinator as I've ever seen and despite all the hype, Franchione is mediocre at best. (Just as a side note, he also looks very much like Howard Dean. Too bad he doesn't have some of Dean's energy and enthusiasm.)

That's a neat story. I'll bet your mother took real comfort in that.

Even though I'm an Aggie, I've been cheering for Texas this season since they have a good chance to play for the national championship. Sure it would be nice for A&M to beat them but since it is highly unlikely, might as well lose to a team that will be playing in the Rose Bowl.

My father was murdered in Houston in 1992. His mother, who was near 90 and had dementia, was in a nursing home in Brookshire and had no clue what day it was nor who anyone but my dad was. Dad visited at least twice a week. We instructed the staff not to tell her as she would not remember the next day in any case. Two days after he died she went the the nurses station near midnight and said " what's going on here? My son just came to see me and said he was OK but wouldn't be able to visit anymore, and I want to know what is happening?"
