If done right, this is a big opportunity to right size Rice Stadium and get rid of the gigantic parking lots on the west side of their campus.

I saw two of the plans about a year ago. If they are sticking to either of those plans, this is going to be a massive change. Considering the substantial amount of improvements and additions this year to the campus, I think they might finally get rid of it.

And we wonder why Texas home insurance premiums are so fucking high. Every Texan is subsidizing and enabling these fuckheads and their bought whore officials to make hundreds of millions. Socialize the losses, privatize the profits. That should be Texas state motto. But yes, let's keep voting for the same assholes because unisex restrooms are the most important issue of all.

The allure of Houston is relative cheap housing. Well yea, it's fucking built on a flood plain.

There’s conflicting information whether this is fake news or not. There was a multi car accident on 59 yesterday.

A random check stop in the middle of a freeway will probably do that.

A real turf war brewing out in the rough and tumble neighborhood of (checks notes)....Memorial?!?!

Quote

 

A high school rivalry between Memorial and Stratford has taken a dangerous turn, with six students arrested for allegedly shooting paintball guns at homes and setting off fireworks in front yards. Harris County Precinct 5 constables said some of the incidents occurred near Pebblebrook Drive and Perthshire in the Wilchester West neighborhood of Harris County.

Neighbors tell KPRC 2 News Reporter Corley Peel the trouble began Monday night, but when the teens returned the following night, they were caught. All six students face felony charges of criminal mischief.

KPRC 2 News obtained surveillance footage showing the teens firing paintball guns in the street, targeting homes, and launching fireworks in yards. Another video captured a student seriously injured after colliding with an SUV during the chaos.

Fort Bend County Judge KP George has escalated his legal and political war with District Attorney Brian Middleton, filing a new motion that accuses the county’s top prosecutor of using encrypted messaging apps, hiding evidence and privately threatening to “knock him the f--- out” during conversations with George’s former aide Taral Patel.

Prosecutors have alleged that George committed money laundering in 2019, accusing him of underreporting tens of thousands of dollars in campaign funds, transferring the money into personal accounts and using it to pay his property taxes and help purchase a home.

George’s filing, paid for through his re-election campaign, mirrors earlier motions submitted in his felony cases and adds additional messages and audio clips his legal team says support disqualifying Middleton and dismissing the charges.

Middleton’s office responded sharply Wednesday, framing the latest motion as a recycled attempt to smear prosecutors. Both men are running for re-election to their respective posts in November 2026.

“These are essentially the same motions they filed last week,” the office said in a statement. “This is yet another desperate attempt, in a long line of attempts, to smear anyone — especially the Fort Bend County District Attorney — through allegations that are baseless and inaccurate. There is no retaliation, no misconduct, and no evidence was destroyed or withheld.”

The office said additional responses will be filed later this week and that prosecutors “look forward to challenging these assertions in the courtroom” while preparing for “the upcoming trials of KP George for the criminal conduct he is charged with.”

George has pleaded not guilty.

What George alleges in his latest filing

The motion argues that newly obtained recordings and text messages show a pattern of misconduct by Middleton and his senior staff.

In the filing, George’s attorneys cite secretly recorded phone calls and screenshots from Patel’s phone that they say capture personal animosity and threatening language from Middleton toward George — including statements such as “This is war,” “I am up on all ten toes ready to knock him the f--- out,” and a message referring to George as a “conceited motherf-----.”

 

George’s team also says Middleton and his assistants used encrypted messaging platforms such as Signal and WhatsApp for political and case-related conversations. They argue the apps’ disappearing-message features may have resulted in the loss of evidence relevant to George’s cases.

The motion also renews earlier claims that several minutes are missing from Patel’s three-hour proffer interview, asserting that the gap occurred while Patel was discussing which Fort Bend County officials were aware of his fake-account activities.

The filing asks the court to remove Middleton’s office from the case, appoint a special prosecutor, bar the use of encrypted apps for official business and order the production of all Signal and WhatsApp messages.

Patel communications at center of dispute

Patel, a former county staffer and Democratic candidate for commissioner, pleaded guilty earlier this year to two misdemeanor charges after investigators accused him of creating fake social media profiles and using them to solicit donations.

 

In a plea deal with the district attorney’s office on April 15, Patel also admitted to online misrepresentation connected to George’s 2022 re-election bid. Patel acknowledged committing one offense “along with” George and agreed to cooperate with prosecutors.

Prosecutors fire back

In two filings submitted Nov. 10, the District Attorney’s Office said George’s motions distort facts, misapply the law and seek remedies outside any court’s authority.

Prosecutors say they turned over all communications George cites as part of discovery in the separate misrepresentation-of-identity case, and that George has not identified any message that was withheld, favorable to his defense or material to the money laundering charges. They describe the texts and screenshots as “cherry-picked” from hundreds of thousands of messages pulled from Patel’s phone.

Corrupted proffer video was duplicated on a second recording

Addressing George’s claim that prosecutors destroyed part of Patel’s proffer, Middleton’s office says the interview was recorded on two devices.

 

A brief portion on one camera was corrupted by a technical failure, they say, but the same segment was captured in full by a second camera. Both recordings were turned over to the defense, along with an explanation from the county’s digital evidence lab. Prosecutors say that because the disputed portion still exists, there is no Brady violation.

Signal use does not amount to evidence destruction, state says

The district attorney’s office argues that the Signal messages George highlights are political or personal, not case-related. They say George has not shown the communications involved official business or that anything was deleted in bad faith. Even if some messages auto-deleted, prosecutors say George has not demonstrated that any material had clear exculpatory value before deletion — a requirement for a due-process claim.

State argues George has not met the bar to remove an elected DA

Prosecutors say Texas law gives judges limited authority to remove an elected district attorney and that personal animosity, political disagreement or harsh language does not meet the legal threshold for disqualification. They argue the court also lacks authority to order many of the remedies George seeks, including forcing Middleton to surrender his phone or creating message logs that do not exist.

 

Patel’s role remains central

Patel’s phone, plea and cooperation agreement continue to anchor both sides’ arguments. George’s attorneys say Patel, not George, operated the fake accounts and coordinated social media strategies with multiple elected officials — possibly including Middleton.

Prosecutors say Patel’s plea reflects the facts and that the fake-account case is separate from George’s money laundering charges.

What happens next

Middleton’s office said it plans to file responses to George’s newest motions this week. George’s attorneys are seeking an evidentiary hearing where Middleton and Patel would testify under oath about their communications, the alleged missing evidence and Patel’s cooperation.

I just found out they have issued an arrest warrant for Limmer's murderer.

Nice that he was out on bond, has a criminal history a mile long, and was literally indicted for aggravated assault the day before he murdered Jeff.  This is just devastating. 

A jury on Wednesday found a Houston man guilty of killing a lawyer during a 2024 shooting at a McDonald's restaurant. 

Jurors took 20 minutes to reach their verdict in the murder case against Anthony Landry, who was accused of killing Jeffrey Limmer, a 46-year-old lawyer who intervened in Landry's dispute with fast food workers over a botched double Filet-O-Fish order.

Landry shouted profanities at workers over a missing patty, witnesses said, prompting Limmer to ask him to leave.

RIP Jeff

Glad to see this over quickly.  Hopefully no appeals stick.

Not related to Bayou deaths....

Anyone know what the large construction project is NE of downtown?  Its east of 59 and and north of I-10, maybe even north of 610.  There's a really big building being built.

The first rule of Houston McDonald’s is never leave your car. 

So they are just downsizing Rice Stadium - friend was talking about it tonight.  Thank the Gods, that was where Kennedy gave his moon speech and where I had an interesting time with a 30-something mother-of-three during a Pink Floyd concert 30 years ago.

Are you thinking of the LBJ Hospital expansion?

If that's the thing that looks like it will be 10 or more stories?  Its visible from 59 when driving.
