First of all Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone...there are so many things going on today so have fun but drink responsibly. 1. Where your favorite green and head to the Alden Houston Hotel-1117 Prairie-the fun starts at 11am and goes til mid-night. 2.Great coversation with friends-The Tasteing Room in Uptown. 3. Seen or be Seen-Mo's Steak House on Post Oak-it's way more than great steaks. 4. Live Music-Baker's Street/Sherlock's Pub any location. 5. Great Food-Ruggles on the Green with Chef Bruce...yum yum. With all the recent sad, depressing and shocking news on the air I think it's time to get out explore and enjoy our town and each other! My favorite picks this week are: Hey everyone, I know that Houstonisimo is about entertainment but I think it's important to reach out when our help is needed. As you have heard in the news about 37 yr. old Susana DeJesus from Pearland is missing and has been since Feb. 2nd when she was abducted by a coward at gun piont. I was out with the Laura Recovery Center yesterday searching for anything that may lead to her recovery alive or not. There is a 15,000.00 dollar reward so if anyone has any info. call the police. We will be out again today so if you have some time to help a nieghbor please come out to The Bass Pro Shop on Beltway 8 and 288. We are meeting at 9 a.m. but show up anytime. Please contact The Laura Recovery Center at 281-482-5723 or Crime Stoppers 800-460-2222 Hope to see you there...wear jeans and a top or jacket with zippered pockets...the family could use your help. Thank you, Nellie Last night I was lucky enough to see A Bronx Tale at the Hobby Center starring Chazz Palmintery that runs through Sunday February 8, 2009. Get your tickets now! What an amazing 1 man act. I laughed, cringed and cried listening to this amazing tale that is set in New York City in the 60's on the corner of E. 187th and Beltone. A tale of one boy and two fathers Loenzo the bus driver and Sonny the mob boss. The characters like Tony Toupee, Frankie the Coffeecake, Jo Jo the Whale and the scary Eddie the mush who actually plays himself in the Film version that was directed 1993 by the great Robert De Niro all come alive with his passion and truth when Palmintery recalls and tells of childhood memories like when he witnessed a murder and covers for the Mafia Boss Sony. At that moment the stage has been set for what turns out to be an outstanding journal of his truth. Palmintery wrote this when he was at a low piont in his life and just been fired as bouncer at a club in Los Angeles maybe the words of his father Lorenzo echoed in his mind "The saddest thing in life is wasted talent" and so began his ten month journey that would change his life. Mayor Bill White Proclaimed February 3, 2009 Houstonisimo Day in Houston in appreciation to our commitment to the Latino community in showcasing all the great events, arts, music, celebrities, food, athletes, politicains and so much more that we cover. The Houston community is diverse and it has been a wonderful expeirence to be able to highlight the best of our community. We are still on hold here at KHOU but not matter what happens always know that with the strength and support of not only the Latino community but the entire Houston community this show or others like it will rise to the top:) Hey guy's it's my pleasure to announce that we were nominated and won an Emmy for the show.
