Merry Christmas from Zilker Park

Pictures never do the Zilker Tree justice. I found this video made by some local austinites. I hope you enjoy it.

Video? You trying to show me up? Looks like I've got some research to do tomorrow. That tree is awesome, btw.

I like the new flag picture. And I voted for red. It's 10:30 and I'm praying how I'm feeling is just a result of too little sleep and too much food: surely I would have gotten sick by now, right?

Tex said...

flag picture?? you mean the Green Monster section signs? I took that while doing a tour at Fenway.

yes video. heh heh :)

Tex said...

and I havent decided on which color...im trying out each one. I like the red but not sure which one is most easy on the eyes

Tex, thanks for the shout-out yesterday! It truly was a memorable year for all of us, but I think we're in for some more excitement in 2008. Who knows? I might voluntarily set foot in Texas...something I don't think I EVER would have considered before.

::fingers crossed::

Hope you have a wonderful rest-of-the-holiday season! Rest up, only 49 days till P&C's report!!

Tex said...

thanks Becks. I really cannot put into words what this past year has meant to me. Meeting all of you especially a few of you has touched my life tremendously. I hope you and Bob can get here. I promise you will leave Texas with a different view. and I havent forgotten my list of things to send you. PVs for 2008.

Tex, I voted for blue mainly because I find the white font very hard to read against a red background in Firefox. The font itself looks fine in IE but is a bitch to read in Firefox, so it may not have a Firefox equivalent. It's a lot thinner with a lot less contrast in Firefox. :(

Tex, will you tell Kelly to speak English?

She's making my head hurt.

muse said...

Why don't you use a white background and use red and blue frames and fonts? It's worth a try.

I liked the blue better than the red a couple of days ago.

Tree video was cool...the music? Well...no wonder Ted is a little sickly.

Nice new pic of the row of monster seats with the Boston skyline.

As for your poll, I can't vote for something other than red or blue? These colors are driving my eyes batty!

Tex said...

Man talk about abunch of whiny babies!!! I dont like white backgrounds. and if i wanted ya to have other choices...JEEEeeeez. ya are tooooooooo much.

red and blue are the colors of Texas flag..no other color will go. I think ill take the poll down. I wasn't asking for constructive criticism...just vote red or blue. :p

Tex said...

lets try grey?

Ted D said...

I like the grey, Tex. For the record, I didn't complain: I voted for red.

Then Kelly made my head explode and I don't remember anything after that.

Redbeard76 said...

Sorry for complaining. The gray is definitely easier on these astigmatic eyes! It is appreciated.

Redbeard76 said...

Hee! You listed me twice in your last post! An extra Merry Christmas to me from Tex!

Tex said...

i did?! well i guess i think of you in two places: SG and IANO :)

Redbeard76 said...

Tex said...
