It's Houston Texas. Best motherfucking
place on Earth to live.
Wadda you need to live? Air, water,
food, shelter.
Here in Houston, the air all but
invites itself int your alvaeoli. The air pressure here is standard
sea level. I've had asthma. I've had TB. I like sea level air
pressure. Keeps me alive, kinda.
Water: It's considered good enough to
brew with by about a dozen breweries locally. Slightly soft, not
high in lime.
Food. Houston has more Vietnamese
citizens than Saigon. Really. Check the stats. Now think: If
Chinese food is good, and French food is good, then Chinese French
food should be good too?
Ding! Wrong! Vietnamese food is better
than that. A humble Bahn Mi from a humble Vietnamese sammich shop has
probably had more time spent on the choice of bakery than you spent
on with or without mayo, and most make their own mayo n premises.
C'mon. I dare ya. Name an ethnic
cuisine (with the possible exception of live monkey brain from
Borneo, and I’m not sure that I couldn't find one here in town)
(and I'm NOT going to look, although I do know where to start).
For some reason the Czechs tend to BBQ,
but the Poles prefer table service. Find great ones, and they're not
throwing stones.
Shelter: If you're willing to move out
to the suburbs with the good schools and shit you can get a
swankienda at a little over $100 per square foot. That means a new
construction house of call it 3ksqft for $300k. Just try to find
that anywhere else other than perhaps Detroit where you will be paid
to knock it down. My rent is 1/20 of what it might be in NYC or SF.
(Why are y'all still allowing Woodrow Wilson to set your rents?)
I’ll admit to some problems here.
Public transit sucks, but, Lord be Praised!!! there's a new system
being posited, that loses most of the maid's routes (routes going
though colored neighborhoods on serpentine paths, but debouching at
the rich folks area. “I'll pick you up at the bus stop”).
