SICK AND SAD

For several years I lived in the small South Texas town of Alvin. It is a nice little community in which to raise kids. So I was sickened and saddened this week as a story unfolded about a little boy whose body was found dumped on Galveston Island. The investigation led to the police believing that the boy's dad had killed and discarded the four month old. Today we found out that the way the child was killed was by having his father stomp his head four times, till he felt the skull crush.

Unbelieveable!

Binoculars in Stephenville

For the past couple of weeks, there have been no binoculars or telescopes left for sale in Stephenville, Texas. That is because of the report by about three dozen citizens of the town, just south of Fort Worth, of an unidentified flying object. The population is now seeking out web sites like Astromart.com for the listings of used binoculars for sale in their classified section. Fortunately there is a wide selection available, many top brands and price ranges are represented. Everyone wants to be ready for the next visit, they want to get a better view than they got with the naked eye!

Texas ATV

My wife and I raised three girls. Now we are in the process of raising two of our grandsons. They are 7 and 8 years old. We have discovered that boys are different from girls. For one thing the toys of boys and girls are generally different. The boys want guns and noise and swords and soldiers. The next thing you know they want an All Terrain Vehicle.

Our boys recently got to ride with a cousin on his, now they are wanting one of their own. It won't be long till I need to go to Texas ATV.com to learn all I can about ATVs, events and forums that the boys will want to know!

Austin

The University of Texas is a huge school in the central Texas area, The city of Austin is also the seat of the state government, so there is always a high demand for apartments in Austin TX .

When my nephew chose to attend the university, he had to find accommodations. He did not know anyone in the city, and he did not want to drive around the city trying to find a suitable apartment that he could afford. That is where Simple Search Apartments.com came in to save the day. They helped find the right place, and saved him money.
