COMMENT OF THE DAY: COLD CASE, RICE VILLAGE “Seems to me a little backwards math could figure this one out.

Quick, do a CSI-like database search of all the freezer owners in Houston. :/ It’s a good thing those blocks of ice contain trace amounts of doucheterium that can only be found in a few Sub-Zero IQ freezers sold in the Houston area.
The Randalls on Weslayan used to sell blocks of ice – I believe they were 5-pound? But that was back in ’96 when I lived up the street. What about Spec’s?
Anyway, reading the doucheterium comment alone was worth the site visit.
the original read as if the block-tossing location was on/in the parking garage… I would assume all residents of the high rise would have equal access?

Dang funny.
Just condemn the condo’s as a public nuisance and make a parking lot for Hans’
