Houston Misc Info
Posted 01-01-2009 at 08:46 AM by nativehoustonian1
This blog is about miscellaneous information that native Houstonians know that outsiders may not.
For example:
People who live in Houston are called [B][I][U][COLOR=blue]Houstonians[/COLOR][/U][/I][/B]. [COLOR=red][B][U]NOT[/U][/B][/COLOR][COLOR=blue] Houston-ites, Houston-ers, etc.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=black]Street names are also frequently mis-pronounced by non-natives.[/COLOR]
Kuykendahl Road is pronounced "kirk-in-doll"
Can you think of anything like these that really bugs you? I'd like to hear from you.:ok:
