What spurned this thought of a ”>UTEP Research Park? I was reading the wacotrib this morning and on the front page was an article about a new collaborative between local colleges/surrounding city governments in the Waco area to develop technology/research park at the now vacated General Tire Plant. While I am excited for my Alma Mater [...]
I was looking for El Paso videos on YouTube and came across this one from someone whose username is irimbaud. I really enjoyed the short video and loved his description even more. What you read next is his description and after that is the video he made. “video about El Paso that I put together. If [...]
Morgan’s Wonderland is a park designed specifically for special needs children. Being built in San Antonio, this park is not for just children in the city but for special needs kids all around the world. The reason I wanted to share this with El Paso was to let those with children/adults with special needs who [...]
Articles in El Paso Inc. and the EP Times have stated that we could see the Farah project in full swing by 2010. With this in mind, I wonder what kind of retailers they have been speaking with. Could we see a project like ABQ Uptown? Not sure…but did you know that ABQ Uptown was [...]
Just got an e-mail from TicketMaster saying that Anjelah Johnson’s performance at the Plaza this Saturday has been cancelled due to a scheduling conflict. I had my tickets for over a month! Oh well, guess I will have her YouTube videos.
John Wesley Hardin: Gunfighter, Outlaw, Gambler, Gentleman? This is a person who I look forwardto learning more about as time goes by.

In my opinion, one of the wonders of the human world is music. Music has the ability to make us laugh, cry, reflect, inspire, create, calm etc. I really enjoy instrumentals and when I find a good one, I like to share with others. Adam Young, who heads up Owl City, has some other side [...]
One of my friends pointed me to an article in InTouchWeeklythat had a photo of El Paso DJ Esteban Carrasco with Estelle while spinning at a party in Vegas at the Palazzo. Always nice to see El Pasoan’s making waves nationally.

I happened to be driving on Artcraft yesterday and I got the sudden urge to drive to the War Eagles Museum in Santa Teresa. For $5, I got to see aircraft I had only read about or watched television shows about. When you walk into the large hangar, you are greeted by music from the 30’s [...]
I love the big sky in El Paso and when I heard about the Perseids meteor shower, I knew what I would be doing at 11 p.m. No, I don’t have a telescope or binoculars…yet…but that didn’t stop me. Although there was light pollution, I was able to adjust pretty well after a few minutes [...]
Need a weekend movie? My first suggestion would be to head to the Plaza Theatre and catch one of the festival movies. However, if you would rather stay at home, then I would suggest renting Second Hand Lions. It doesn’t matter how my day is going, this movie puts a smile on my face.
I was watching the History Channel yesterday and a program came on about new energy technologies. One that caught my eye was a new type of system that helps air conditioners become more energy efficient. With the hot temperatures that El Paso has experienced this Summer, I thought Ice Energy could be a nice product [...]
Wouldn’t you love to have a street car line running from UTEP to downtown…I would. My mom sent me an article from the San Antonio Express News and they are now seriously looking at getting streetcars up and running there in the next 2-3 years. The project has all the major political and private big [...]
