1:52 this ham egg and cheese croissant is

1:54 legit this thing is so good down this

1:57 access road we will connect with another

2:00 street that in the

2:02 1970s was very Infamous the name of the

2:05 road is Calder once you pass these

2:08 trailers and a few homes you get into an

2:11 area where there really isn't a whole

2:13 heck of a lot starting right in here is

2:16 what is commonly referred to

2:19 as the Killing Fields up to 30 bodies

2:22 have been found on the stretch of

2:26 road right

2:28 inside that

2:30 brush since that time frame and almost

2:34 all of

2:35 them Unsolved Mysteries it's been the

2:38 subject of many different documentaries

2:41 and opinions and even a feature film

2:44 there's not a whole heck of a lot to see

2:46 and I don't want to focus on the subject

2:48 matter too terribly intensely do your

2:51 own Columbo likee reseearch skills if

2:53 you want to figure it out in fact maybe

2:56 Columbo should have been on the case and

2:59 they wouldn't be

3:00 unsolved so crazy that it was right

3:04 there change of subject now this place

3:07 has some really cool old classic cars

3:10 and

3:17 trucks check out this

3:17 ambulance old school ambulance there

3:20 that's the second or third one I've seen

3:21 of those around these parts in a week

3:24 I've noticed more and more of these

3:25 Goodwills calling themselves a select

3:28 store not just a Goodwill store but now

3:31 Goodwill select here's a movie I haven't

3:33 thought about in a very long time The

3:35 Man from Snowy River I used to watch

3:37 this a lot as a kid it's funny I was

3:40 just talking about this movie yesterday

3:42 and they have it on DVD the black hole

3:44 I'm kind of surprised to see this Fritz

3:47 the Cat this is an adult oriented

3:50 cartoon more obscenity and violence than

3:52 Disney ever dreamed of I didn't buy

3:55 anything I was just doing some window

3:56 shopping I always like to look for new

3:59 CDs

4:00 every once in a while the thrift store

4:02 new cruising tunes no luck now the city

4:05 of Alvin it's more like a town really

4:08 but you will be excited to know if

4:09 you're a baseball fan like I am that

4:12 this was the stomping grounds of the one

4:13 and only Nolan Ryan his family moved

4:16 here when he was just an infant and he

4:18 lived here up until 2003 so that means

4:21 his entire Hall of Fame baseball career

4:24 he resided in this town at one point

4:26 they used to have a museum dedicated to

4:29 him called the Nolan Ryan Center but it

4:32 has since closed and don't quote me on

4:35 this but I think the museum moved to his

4:37 new town that he resides in but right

4:39 there is where his statue used to stand

4:42 in front of those flag poles it's almost

4:44 as if it was set up like he was pitching

4:46 towards the door he definitely would

4:47 have broke that window because he had

4:49 one heck of a fast

4:58 ball there's the High School home of the

4:58 Yellow Jacket

5:00 and while attending here playing

5:02 baseball he was scouted for the major

5:05 leagues it was said it even at this age

5:08 level that catchers did not want to

5:10 catch for him cuz they were afraid they

5:12 would break their hand and some hitters

5:15 chickened out and didn't even want to

5:17 step up to the

5:18 plate when he was on the mound not only

5:21 is he in the category of best baseball

5:23 pitchers but also best baseball brawls

5:26 back in 1993 he threw a first pitch hit

5:29 Rob Ventura Robin did not like that too

5:31 much stormed the mound and Nolan handled

5:35 it like a boss you can look the clip up

5:38 it's pretty entertaining it's a

5:40 lighthouse except there's no water

5:42 around the guy on 35 Hot

5:44 Tamales I had no idea that the Tim

5:48 tracker was franchising in the

5:51 neighborhood for a very long time I

5:53 always thought this was a madeup word

5:56 that my childhood friends would use for

5:59 bug

6:00 that hung out in Moss and obviously

6:04 creeks in Texas amongst the electrical

6:07 towers and power lines is that huge

6:11 cross I think there's three or four of

6:13 them around the Greater Houston area

6:15 that one 170 ft tall I believe there she

6:19 is over there

6:22 Houston Houston Texas I am now at the

6:25 memorial Oaks Cemetery this next subject

6:29 is very

6:31 fascinating but also

6:33 very very

6:36 sad I'm standing here in the area called

6:40 baby land and next to the sound of the

6:44 interstate are the final resting places

6:48 of hundreds of children I've never

6:51 experienced losing a child but I can

6:53 only imagine the

6:55 Heartbreak must be completely unbearable

6:58 I want to focus on one

7:00 couple and their son you may remember an

7:03 Entertainer by the name of Tiny Tim in

7:05 1968 had a very popular song by the name

7:08 of Tiptoe Through the Tulips and for

7:11 horror fans current horror fans you also

7:14 might remember that song he was used in

7:16 the movie Insidious about a year after

7:19 the success of that song Johnny Carson

7:23 had a proposition for him to get married

7:26 on The Tonight Show which Tiny Tim did

7:30 to his wife Vicky after they were

7:33 married 3 or 4 months later she became

7:37 pregnant and she gave birth to a son but

7:40 evidently there were some serious

7:42 complications and the boy did not live

7:45 after childbirth making him a

7:49 stillborn and the Very peculiar thing

7:53 is they named

7:56 him

7:58 it he was never given a real

8:03 name

8:05 just

8:17 it I'm not really sure

8:17 why but they just called him it I'm sure

8:21 they had their

8:22 Reasons I'm guessing grief had a big

8:25 part of that

8:27 decision when you're under that kind of

8:29 you know stress and

8:32 sadness your mind isn't always working

8:35 right I don't know what their mentality

8:39 was for not giving their child a

8:45 nevertheless it is a very interesting

8:49 part of History he was a very

8:52 interesting man to say the least you

8:55 should look him up if you've never

8:57 listened to his music or seen his

8:58 interviews

9:05 I just can't get over the fact that they

9:05 did not give their son a

9:22 name there's been some very nasty

9:22 weather in this area the last few

9:25 days Houston got some major flooding

9:28 issues

9:29 luckily I haven't been stuck in any of

9:34 that but the weather could definitely be

9:36 a little bit drier that's for

9:53 slowly enjoying the

9:53 rain here comes the rain again falling

9:58 on large Marg like a

10:01 mystery I'll see you guys tomorrow so

10:04 don't get in

10:17 Linux not really

10:17 Vlog over
