Houston Heights

People are born to have talents that can be ambivalent at times, and it is no surprise that more and more full-pledged singers have jumped on having some acting stints, too, which delivered quite an impressive result. We all can remember Whitney Houston as she starred in the 90s movie The Bodyguard alongside Kevin Costner, or Jennifer Hudson as Effie White in the hit musical The Dream Girls, but are we going to ever forget how superstar pop diva Beyonce tipped her toes to the cinematic world…

Portable…

It is here where he would dramatically shape the direction of the United States’ efforts. His speech would mark the beginning of an era filled with exploration and innovation in outer space.

Hi, I'm Logan and I'm sharing myself. My changes are from the things I do and no one can change me. I'm different from everyone, and I like that. I strive to finish even if I'm nowhere near the end. Everyone changes, there height, there appearance, and everything. I'm going to be sharing about me and what I like and think. My personality is different than lots of people. I really don’t like to consider myself funny because lots of people disagree, and some people don't find the same things…

plans were rejected for a minor issue, resulting in the plans having to be adjusted to meet a missed code.

If there is one thing I have learned over the past few years of hosting a political radio show, it's that Republicans love conspiracy theories. And I am not just talking run of the mill, fun to think about conspiracies, like Aliens built the Pyramids or that Elvis is alive and well and playing shuffleboard with the ghost of Colonel Sanders in some Florida retirement community. No, I'm talking over the top nonsensical bullsh*t straight out of the annals of Alex Jones' sock drawer. You can…
