As far as what Rodeo said about going to the right church, school, etc. I think that applies moreso to the white establishment in Dallas i.e. your SMU-going, Highland Park-living snobs. I don't think this attitude is as prevalent in the black community even though we got our own Snooty McSnoots. The thing that kills me about Dallas is that compared to Austin and Houston, these muthafuckas are seriously nouveau riche. I went to Stephen F. Austin high school, one of the oldest schools in the state with kids descended from the original 300 settlers and they were cooler than a fan and down to Earth. But these Plano soccer mom bitches wanna put on airs cuz they drivin' a Benz.  Bitch, please. Dallas, is definitely home of the $30,000 millionaire.  But you're right tho.
You are right about that. I agree that the majority of black people in Dallas aren't like that. However, you do have some that do. I know people that go to certain churches (Good Street, St. Luke, Pilgrim's Rest, Friendship West, The Potters House, etc.) because the church has clout. I know one girl that goes to the Potters House just so she can say Jakes is her pastor. I have also found that the black community in Dallas is divided up. If you live in one of the northern suburbs (Allen, Plano, Frisco, etc), people tend to be really into the size of house they live in and the type of car they drive. When people live in the southern suburbs (Cedar Hill, Duncanville, etc.), they tend to be thought of as "hood" or "ghetto". It's crazy. What gets me is how no matter where they live, if they are trying to put on a front, they ALL tend to live beyond their means. That's crazy. My $100,000 house is just as nice as your $300,000 house. At least I'm debt free and u aren't.  Shut up fool! I live in Allen in a big ass house  But I've lived here for 10 years and started with a small house and worked my way up. I really don't buy into that status BS and neither do the people in my circle. I've been friends with most of the people in my clique for over 15 years. So we've been cool since when everybody was broke and struggling.
As for the church shit, I know lots of folks that flock to Potters House and the other ones you mentioned and keep their pastors pimped out but he won't marry or bury them when the time comes.  No thanks.  | |

The celebrities that live in the Dallas area don't do that. They want everyone to know what their house is worth. Some of them do though cuz if you know their address and look it up by address you'll find that the house is a trust or company's name. Troy Aikman and Mark Cuban's is done that way. | |

You guys have said alot that I wanted to say. There are alot of misconceptions about our big metropolitain city. ANd one big is that yes we don't have that many rednecks and New York and CHicago have alot worse of a racism problem and it's infact growing. Houston is the 2nd Fortune 500 city in the country. Texas is the number 1 500 state beating New York. It's so liberal and well off in some places some partts of The Midwest look more Southern than Texas. I hear that in places like Michigan and Indiana there are more trailer parks nand more COnfederate flags than some parts of The South. Even Chicago isn't as thumping and metropolitain as Houston I hear. We are more like what you think they are and they are more like what you think we are.
SP lets start of buy saying Texas has the 5th largest city and metropolitain area. Houston the nation's 4th largest city, Dallas the 4th largest metro area. They've both got about 6 million people in their metropolitain areas. Dallas is bigger than Philadelpjia and Houston is bigger than DC.Miami,Boston,Detroit,and Toronto. San Fransisco may be a little bigger than Dallas. It's huge diverse, and we are the 3rd most gay town in teh country. Some say it's more gay than San Fransisco. The queers aren't as out in Los ANgeles. Urban,diverityy.....queers? SO yes we have a big club scene. Up until about 10 years ago the club and Rave scene were hott. Texas has alotof ravers, punks,b-boys, and goths. WOuldn't believe but some artists who come here say we make more noise than New York at concerts. We love music and like to party hard. Depeche Mode and Nine Inch Nails are some of our very favourite bands. It's also a big arts and engineering city. Lots of museums, theaters and galleries. Texas is the 2nd state for Science, Engineering, and Technology after California. AUstin is Technology, Dallas is Telecommunications, and Houston is Engineering and Science. Rice, and University Of Houston are 2 scientifically renound schools in Housotn as well as UT(Austin), Texas A&M,and Prarie VIew University. The many oil companies are the main hirers if engineers. THe refineries,ships, and pipeplines require engineeers to design them. Also lots of electronics and physicists monitor the flow of oils through pipeplines. They also work at NASA-John SPace Center. Besides oil Houstonis known for Mission Cpntrol. Houston was the first word said from The Maoon. We are known for 2 phrases. "Houston tranquility Base here, The Eagle has landed." and "Houston we have a problem.". The Texas Medical Center has lots of Biomedical Research. labs working on curing Cancer,world class surgeons and the development of The Artificial Heart.Compaq used to be based here. Dell,ID, Nortel,, and Texas Instruments are a few well known brands here and T.I. has a plant here. I mentioned money. We have the nation's strongest economy as of now. Our housing industry is still megabooming even with the national trend of foreclosure. Having a 2story suburban house is so common here that my folks from Ohklahoma said they'd never seen so many black people live outside the inner-city before. We also have the nation's second biggest port which makes us a factory-werehouse hub. We have tons of 18 wheelers on the road and or a key distribution point for drugs. Yes our money is plentiful and our prices are far lower than New York,Chicago, or LA> You can get a BIG 2 story home fully loaded for under $200,000 You have to be pretty well off or spendy to spend over $500,000 for a house. New ones come as cheap as $100,000. We've also got 2 major airports. SOme people misunderstand our enviroment. Texas is far more than desert which I think is the most beautiful. West Texas is desert, mountains, and plateaus. Central Texas is prairies., and East Texas is forests,hills,and swamps. INfact Texas is home to one of the biggest national foresests The Big Thicket. We also sit of The Gulf of Mexico so we have a 700 mile coast. We have great beaches that many people don't realize. Texas is also like 1,000 miles wide. SO not only is it like several states, it has several enviromental regions, and it goes through 2 time zones. We're the 2nd largest state in land mass and 3rd in population.We sit right inbetween 3 regionsof the country and another country. People think of Texas as The South or Southwest. Both are true, Texas is so big it sits in 2 regions.The Eastern part is lilike The SOuth bordering LOuisiana and Arkansas. The western part is SOuthwest bordering New Mexico and almost COlorado.. The Norther part is semi-Midwestern bordering Ohklahoma and almost Kansas. ANd South Texas which is called The Rio Grande Valley borders Mexico so there's ALOT of mexicans and mexican culture. Texas is so big and part of so many regions they have to make one specifically for us. Called The SouthCentral United States it's a region shared with Ohklahoma and Kansas. There is more distance from HOuston to Dallas than from Washington to New York. ANd it's so far from the East Edge to The West Edge it's alot more distance than from New York to Chicago. Infact, El Paso which is on The Western Edge is close to LA than the other side of the state!! Texas is spread with several hundred miles inbetween cities. That and our cities are spread. They are flat with tons of people in the suburbs. There is no really good mass transist so liek our sister city LA you have to have a car. People live almost 30 miles out in some areas. Infact the suburbs ar ethe most diverse areas. The Ft.Bend County suburbs make the county the 2nd most diverse in the nation. HOustonis home to huge hispanic,black,asian,nigerian,and East-Indian populations. Infact Houston is the top city for vietnemese and indians. [Edited 2/12/09 13:29pm] Working up a purple sweat. | |

No thanks. I'm not dissing you or others in Allen and Plano. My best friend lives in Plano and I have a couple of friends and relatives that live in Allen. They were like you, moved there in the early 90s when it was still a small and upcoming town. They don't buy into that church stuff either. I know some that do, though.  **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

But there was NOTHING in Allen when I moved here. Only a couple of stoplights and McDonalds. Now, it's ridiculous but still lovely. At least I can see where my tax dollars go. They have lots of great public facilities, swim centers, skate parks, etc. None of which I use of course but it's nice to know they're there.  | |

They have taken polls about how "Safe" you feel and ask if you see any police officers in your community. I can appreciate that. At least he's trying to attract people. Not like Laura Miller...run everyone and everything to the suburbs. Hell, she didn't even want to participate in the gay pride parade.

Did you go to NT? I was at TWU from '91-'94. Fool, do I know you for real???  I remember when 75 used to go down to 2 lanes when you hit Allen and it was pitch black at night cuz it was nothing but farmland. Things have certainly changed and this whole area is the fastest growing in the WHOLE country last I heard.
And fuck Laura Miller she's the one that screwed Dallas outta the new stadium and was giving her husband's company all kinds of city contracts.  | |

In the larger parts of Texas, you don't see it as much as you do in the small towns.  And this is true EVERYWHERE not just in Texas OR the South, ask any black person outside of Texas if they've experienced some form of racism they'll tell you "yes" so it's not like Texas owns the patent on that shit. | |

SCNDLS said: daPrettyman said: They definitely fit into what you were saying about be whatever you want to be. These guys have gone on to make LOTS of money and are true business men. I also agree with you about Dallas (in certain parts for sure). Fort Worth is TOTALLY DIFFERENT, but a lot of Dallas people tend to do the "in" crowd thing. I know this girl that owns a beautiful house in a suburb and decided rent her home out and move in the Uptown area because she thought it was the cool thing to do. [Edited 2/12/09 12:36pm] I think there are climbers and posers where ever you go in the world. As far as what Rodeo said about going to the right church, school, etc. I think that applies moreso to the white establishment in Dallas i.e. your SMU-going, Highland Park-living snobs. I don't think this attitude is as prevalent in the black community even though we got our own Snooty McSnoots. The thing that kills me about Dallas is that compared to Austin and Houston, these muthafuckas are seriously nouveau riche. I went to Stephen F. Austin high school, one of the oldest schools in the state with kids descended from the original 300 settlers and they were cooler than a fan and down to Earth. But these Plano soccer mom bitches wanna put on airs cuz they drivin' a Benz. Bitch, please. Dallas, is definitely home of the $30,000 millionaire. LMAO, both Threadcula and I went to SMU. | |

daPrettyman said: RodeoSchro said: Beyonce is from Houston. She has a house not far from mine, and allegedly Prince owns the one next door. If my parents were still alive, Prince and them would live four houses apart. I've never seen Prince around here, and whenever I drive by his alleged house, the vehicles in the driveway are very un-Prince-like. Pick-up trucks. But I know for a fact which house Beyonce owns, and I also know she owns a condo in the building next to ours in Galveston. Prince does not own a house in Harris County. I did a records search and cannot find a residence for Beyonce, Matthew or Tina. There is a CELESTINE Knowles that owns a house worth $2,144,918. That maybe her house, but I don't know. Try Galveston County. What is the address for Celestine Knowles? Is it in Twin Oaks Blvd? If so, that's it. | |

I see it all the time on 360. No, but that's funny though! What part of 360? Nearer I-20 or I-30? I live more near 360 and I-20.
We are totally jacking this tread.
 Sorry fluid!! | |

So have you spent any time in Texas? [Edited 2/12/09 14:24pm] No, but I've spent some time in Arkansas, and that was an eye opener for sure. Tell me how Texas is different than Arkansas. | |

Tell me how Texas is different than Arkansas. So why make assumptions and generalizations when you ain't even been here? Just cuz Arkansas is next to Texas don't mean nothing. That's like saying, I've been to New Jersey so I know what New York is like. Texas IS a massive state in size with tons of different people, climates, environments. The cities like Houston, Dallas, and Austin are extremely diverse and are centers for international trade and commerce in a variety of industries. It is NOTHING like Arkansas, but even Arkansas has it's exceptions. Bill Clinton came outta there from a single parent home and went on to be a Rhodes scholar and president. So I'm sure there a lot of people that don't fit your narrow view of Arkansas. [Edited 2/12/09 19:23pm] | |
