hmmm. what about a bigger eagle and smaller "Mean Green"? Reverse the sizes?

Could you try something. Could you do a 2nd redesign also as option A, but flip it so the words are on the left and below the eagle instead of on the right and above the eagle? I played around with it in Paint (hey, it's all I have) and I think it is a more pleasing look to have the eagle above and to the right of the words.

I was thinking of an emblem for the back of a car, about the size of 1 - 1.5 inches tall by 3-4 inches wide. 9.5" wide by 5.5" tall seems a little on the large size (or is it just me?)

I was just watching TV when Channel 4 news had a quick report on this subject. They said a Houston company was buying up property on Fry street for an 8 story building, but Nobody at the company would make any comments other than a nationwide pharmacy has commited to one of the spots.

Most CHL courses do not teach people how to shoot. They go over basic shooting techiques, teach the laws that are a CHL needs to know, and have a (VERY) basic shooting test. The classes assume that the person taking the class knows the basics. If someone wants to protect themselves and have never picked up a pistol, they really should go to either a gun shop, gun range, or TSRA or NRA website to find classes that will teach proper safety and handling techniques, loading, fireing and cleaning your weapon, as well as what to do when you have a misfire or jam. Many times these classes will have a one on one firing range sessions where someone will assist the shooter with proper stance, holding, and firing - this is something that the CHL class is not required to do. I like Hydrashocks and Gold Dot for carrying. My home defense is less potent for fear of over penetration or missing the target. As for carrying, I usually carry my KelTec 380. It is small enough to fit in a pocket so I am more likely to carry it vs my 9mm Springfield which required a IWB holster. Pistol is only good if you have it on you. As for stopping power, your right, there have been people hit by .380 and 9mm and not known it. But on the flip side, many people have had harder time with multi shots from the higher caliber due to excessive recoil. I'll take accuracy over power.

You know, SMU used to have the best professional team in college football.

Acutally, you don't need a CHL for home protection in Texas. You can open carry on your own property. (imagine some guy mowing his yard with a Desert Eagle strapped to his side) Of couse living in an apartment, I don't think that you would have rights in the common areas (ie. anywhere but inside your dwelling). The CHL is good in that it allows you to protect yourself by carring a firearm away from home. Though on a college campus having a CHL is pretty much useless since the law does not allow you to carry into any college building or sporting event. Of couse anyone who lives in apartments, I highly recommend a smaller caliber handgun and specialized bullets that are made to not go through drywall. They are bb and resin filled hollow points with less powerful gunpowder. Reports say that about 80-90% of shots usually miss the target, you want to decrease your chance of hitting an innocent bystander. (again, imagine missing with a Desert Eagle - bullet would probably fly through 3 or 4 walls before it stops!) Burl

$5 for chrome? excellent Option B would be my choice. I'll take 4. where do I mail the check?

If you can make them, let me know how much. I'll buy two or three. Burl

That is pretty sweet, but I really like the design Rick used. If it isn't possible to get that one, the NTExes might be a nice option! Burl

Hey Rick, I was just thinking. What is the possibility of making a smaller version of the chrome Mean Green hitch cover that could be doubletaped to cars (like you with with UT and aTm). My wife commented that should would like something like that for her car. So far I've had several people ask me where I purchased my Hitch cover! It is an excellent product! Burl

Did a search on dentoncad.com on Loveless and came up with the following: LOVELESS FAMILY LTD P/S 101-111 WELCH $571,055 LOVELESS FAMILY LTP 1217 W OAK $134,583 LOVELESS FAMILY LTP 1120 W HICKORY $156,530 LOVELESS FAMILY LTP 1225 W OAK $35,200 LOVELESS FAMILY LTP 1211 W OAK $21,606 LOVELESS FAMILY LTP 1204 W HICKORY $38,932 That is all I could find under Loveless. I did a search on Fry St and didn't see any loveless or multiple properties with the same owner. Of course this is just info that is posted. There could always be stuff in the works.

I like the charm of Fry Street, but frankly, it needs to be cleaned up. Heck, go into the Flying Tomato (er, Tomato now). and I bet that some of the pizza crumbs (and beer) that I dropped on the floor in that place are still around. Love the atmosphere of the Tomanto, but that place needs some major industrial cleaning! It is just another bio lab for the university. Burl

Just for the record, I became sick due to a sinus infection (and Im still down and out. Doc won't let me go back to work until Wednesday thank goodness). Also, In the past, we've had excellent food from Willey G's. I got the house special one time that had shrimp so big, I thought it was small lobsters! Also, for lunch time, I love the fish club sandwich at Fish Tales. If you work in Forth Worth, might I suggest Theresa's Dixie House cafe on Belknap St. Daily specials are excellent.

Thanks... I look at it this way. At least it was a 3 day vacation that got messed up (only lost one night hotel fees, so I don't feel too bad). and I we didn't have any wrecks or any speeding tickets. So it could have been worse.... Thanks Rick. I'd still like to have one if anybody ever decides to make one. I really am impressed with the chrome mean green. I went out and looked at it again this morning (bought a lock, know it won't last if I don't have a lock on there) and really am impressed with the quality. If you ever do another order, I may have to buy one for Rich and ship it to him up there in Seattle. (or give it to him as a Christmas present)

I left Thursday night to take the family on a 3 day vacation in Galveston. I became extremely sick, the food at Willey G's was bad, the weather sucked, kid was whining that all he wanted to do was go home, oh and my wife hurt her back (about the only good thing was the traffic and no tickets). We pulled up to the front of the house and there was a box on the front porch. My Mean Green hitch came in! Looks really really sweet on my Tundra (Chrome is the way to go!). If only I could have had it on the truck for the trip. Im sure It would have been noticed. Way too many aTm and UT emblems and not enough NT. Rick, you ough to show these to the University, I would be that they'd sell. (It is kinda of neat to have something hardly anybody has!). Again, thanks for having something nice on my doorstep at the end of a Hellish vacation. Burl

Coppell High School Class of 86. Home of the rednecks and spoiled rotten rich kids. (I don't think there are any rednecks left in Coppell)

Any chrome ones that don't have a home yet?

Very unsportsman like. IMHO, it looks bad on a college when it's alum or students wear or post messages that are vulgar towards another team.

What do the hitches look like? got a pic?

I will take two pairs of sock if they will fit a size 14 foot. If you have them my size, just let me know where to go and who to pay. Burleigh

I wouldn't buy the jesery. I don't think Im keen on the way the front looks. Maybe if the "North Texas" wasn't just plastered across the front. Actually, I might buy the design on the white jersey pic, but the green jersey just looks too amaturish. Burl

I have an xbox360 with xbox live. What game are you talking about where you can play college teams?

Shouldn't this be in the Job Posting Thread???????

You could contact UNT. I remember they have(had?) a job placement department that helped grads find jobs and careers. Burleigh
