     The deal is we made it to 2019 everybody.
     This event also tells us we're into the New Year. Houston's International Boat, Sport & Travel show moving into 50 years of presenting this exhibition. 
     It was a few years ago the promotional talk of the exhibition was attendees were greeted by live sharks.

Houston Texans vs Indianapolis Colts
Wildcard Playoff
@NRG

Saturday 12/5/2018 3:55 PM

 

With the start of the New Year we should not be surprised that Houston is in post season playoffs this weekend. The NFL club had a robust season finishing with an 11-5 record during regular season play.
     Injuries and player mishaps could have made for a better outcome say some football analysts.

Houston Texans.com reports:
     The Texans clinched their third AFC South division title in four years with a 20-3 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Houston became the first team to start the season 0-3 and finish as division champions since the 1992 San Diego Chargers.


"It means a lot," head coach Bill O'Brien said after the game. "These guys have worked hard, especially the way we started out. It's a testament to the players in that locker room. They've always hung tough, and to go from 0-3, then go 11-2 in this league, tough to do. Give credit to the players."

Shen Yun Performing Arts
Jones Hall for the Performing Arts

Playing now thru  January 16, 2019

The creators of Shen Yun have been saying for years the government of China has to put it mildly frowned on their continuing to present these performances. But this annual dance spectacle is worth an outing to see. Its this weekend (December 28, 2018) at Jones Hall downtown Houston.

Through the universal language of music and dance, Shen Yun weaves a wondrous tapestry of heavenly realms, ancient legends, and modern heroic tales, taking you on a journey through 5,000 years of Chinese culture.

 Its stunning beauty and tremendous energy leave audiences uplifted and inspired.
