So Tilman is Republican? Seems I remember him putting the Clinton’s up for a night or two back in the 90s.

Been to Cadillac Mexican food on the Island.

Yes, that is the one I have tried as well. Maybe I had to many margaritas before the meal. My take on Landry's, if it doesn't come off of a Sysco truck, well they don't have it. My first rememberance of Mexican food was when I first entered the service back in the mid 60's. San Antonio. I didn't know a taco from an enchilada. $1.25 for a dinner platter. Another quarter for a beer. TexMex. I have tried hundreds of places since. I agree, Cadillac way down on the list in Texas.

From what I remember of Mexican food as a youngster, it was all about the same. (sort of like Cadillacs)

Now days, I enjoy regular old El Paso/San Antonio type Mexican once in a while but, I lean towards Tex-Mex and New Mexican flavors. (Pesole, Green/red chile sauces, fresh salsas, Rellenos, barracho/Charro beans, etc) Must stop now, making self very hungry.

"But you do know, I’m sure, that government can now take your property and give it to a developer to garner higher property taxes from more 30 story condos."

Yep..they can. Ironically, my mom and I both face portions of our properties being used for roads (me widening, her adding). 'They say' that if they do take the property we'll be fairly compensated..... definately falls in the 'see to believe' column.
