Several friends' wives in Tanglewood were freaking out over helicopter / manhunt last night.  Was at one of my law partner's house in that neighborhood for dinner and that shit was popping off for about an hour.  Cops and K9 were all over it, looking for a black male in a black hoodie.  Not sure if they caught who they were looking for.  But some excitement for a normally boring part of town.

Stunning discoveries reveal Houston Housing Authority’s lavish spending

 

https://www.click2houston.com/news/local/2025/01/13/stunning-discoveries-reveal-houston-housing-authoritys-lavish-spending-habits/

“Thousands of people in Houston struggle to pay rent and keep a roof over their heads. The Houston Housing Authority’s mission is to provide housing for these families. However, ten months ago, the housing authority announced it was out of money to provide families with vouchers to help pay monthly rent. Davis wondered where the money went, considering the federal tax dollars involved.”

Im shocked, well maybe not shocked.gif

Just got the blue alert sitting in my office downtown...still not sure what the point of blue alerts is and have no idea what I'm supposed to do with this information. Am I supposed to call off work the rest of the day and go look for this guy?

Ok they got him.  He apparently didn’t run far and hid in a dumpster.  K-9 dog found him and he shot the dog.  Cops filled him with lead.  It’s over for him - but not for the families

I believe the deputy was part of a special unit that serves warrants to violent offenders. I hope there’s hazard pay for those guys. Jesus what a dangerous job. 
 

If this piece of shit was out on a cashless bond, I gonna puke.

The news this morning is saying the suspect was found 5 hours after the shooting in a dumpster in the same parking lot where the shooting happened?  Good police work there.

It happens more than it should.  I know of two incidents in Tanglewood over the last few years where friends or parents of friends were attacked on their property upon returning home.  I live between Briargrove and Tanglewood on Potomac and last year a guy opened my gate and was hanging out in my “yard” around my patio home.  My yard is about 4 feet of rocks/artificial turf around two sides of my patio home.  Absolutely no reason for anyone to be there.  Freaked my wife out pretty good.  After she called the cops the guy finally left.

Beryl was very unique. The eye going over Katy has to be the first time.

Yeah but in 10 years, you probably won’t think it’s as rare

Also motion to not claim anything that happens in The Woodlands in the WTF is wrong with Houston thread... 

Motion denied.  Every major city has its embarrassing burbs full of mouth-breathing morons.  That particular one is full of aggies. Sorry, but they're Houston's and no one else's.

PF Changs was invented for people who live in the Woodlands.

Spring was where I used to tell people I was from when I didn't know them well enough to figure if they would judge me from being from "The Woodlands" or not lol. Technically not a lie since if you put Spring as the city for my parent's address the mail still gets to them...
