Coming into San Antonio airport joke of the day:
Yesterday, as I was going thru TSA & the X-ray machine area, two women TSA agents were there. One pointed at my sweatshirt w/hoodie and said remove it. I did and both of them blushed.
I wryly said to the one who said remove it, 'Well , aren't you glad I wore a t-shirt underneath?"
One said yes, the other said no.
Hmmmm......all well - at least I batted 500.
A few hours earlier in the day, I boogied on over to the Hard Rock Café -
and had a Burger & fries that just couldn't be beat -
their apple cobbler was pretty dang good as well -
YUM!!

ANYWHO -
Gots lots 2 say about the topic of How the city of San Antonio is trying to reimagine the Alamo area. IMHO, Martin & Chris (two very nice people who help run this exhibit) have a gem of an exhibit on their hands as I feel the people who run the Alamo need to listen to this organization in seeing how one puts history out for display for all to see.
I mean, look at Independence Hall area in the city of Brotherly love.......
Look at how the Smithsonian area has been done up quite well in Washington , Dc.
Yet - here we are as a State......
history scattered everywhere in the Alamo city in regards to this siege.
and I agree, its about time the shops and such just right in front of the Alamo have been told they have to vacate in one year.
In short, do all of you remember Walt Disney's attitude about all the shops, hotels and such that butted up right against his creation called
Disneyland??
Well, same here in regards to the Alamo area. the city needs to do a much better job of presenting history here that means so much to a lot of us Texans.
All right -
I feel I have been respectful of what I posted about this topic since I know there r others locally here in San Antonio who are reading this but from what I can tell, there seems to be quite a difference of opinions on this topic shall we say and I hope the City and San Antonio gets its act together on this topic and do us Texans justice and make us feel proud.
