 | | | | | | | | | | Dear Joe, Lots of neat houses coming up so stay tuned... San Antonio's own Rachel Laven is in the final 20 of thousands entered in the BBC's competition to identify "The Next Big Thing." Me? I'm content to go see Rachel and the Laven's every Friday for happy hour at The Cove (see you in an hour and a half!). Ok... I admit it. I voted for the hometown girl twice! if you care to, view Rachel's entry here and vote for her here. Check out Crusty McSweetheart's blog entry about Rachel and the competition. Wow. Prince Valiant took an unexpected turn this past Sunday. Not only did he move to page 6, but Makeda returned. It may be 4 weeks behind, but you can start to follow the saga here. It's clean,
