I have been in love with Chi's for a while now but have never take the plunge to own one myself.
WELP - I'm buying one. It is a night and day difference in how my hair looks and feels NOT TO MENTION I stepped on my former flat iron.
Amazon sells them for round about $87 and I know you can get them cheaper if you have a friend with a hair license. I don't feel like hunting someone down and then dragging them to wherever you buy them, so I'm just going to go online.
Does anyone know of any sites that sell them cheaper than amazon? and no ebay please, something is always a miss when I get things off of that site.
My hair and I appreciate any info you might have :)

| I know i've talked about this place but DANG it's such a good story! |

The List Mansion
Seabrook, TX
Author Unknown
The former Toddville Mansion has recently been torn down, and the property turned into apartments or condos. There are reports of a strange creature roaming the grounds, noises, feelings of being watched, and shadowy figures.
Actually this mansion is was the List Mansion. The story of this place was well known to the people of Seabrook who lived there at the time. I lived near the List Mansion for many years. Several acres of land were bought by a Houston business owner in the late 70's early 80's right on Galveston Bay near the intersection of Toddville Road and East Meyer Road. Bill List was his name and for the most part at first no one knew who he was, only that their was a major construction project going up near the Bay.
Bill List owned a trailer manufacturing business and with the success of his business came great wealth. The mansion was a massive undertaking; built up on several feet of soil, the three-story brick structure dwarfed the modest homes surrounding the property. The brick foundry where Bill was buying the bricks for his mansion was unable to keep up production. Bill just bought the brick foundry so all the bricks made could go into his construction project.
Month by month the mansion began to take shape. The stark brick structure was three stories tall, four if you count the massive garage on the ground level. All the windows on every floor featured wrought iron bars. It was divided into two separate sections with a large glassed-in garden and pool. Catwalks on the second floor crossed from the front of the house to the back part. The rooms were arranged into separate apartments with kitchens, bathrooms and living areas. A brick wall from Toddville Road surrounded the entire property. The List Mansion (as it was called) resembled a prison, which was not far from true.
When construction was completed, some friends and I were in the Kroger's parking lot in Seabrook when two guys a little older than us invited us to a "big party to celebrate the opening of the List Mansion." We talked to them for a few minutes and they left. We did not go to the party.
For years after that you rarely saw anyone coming or going from the mansion, even though several families could live there at the same time and never see each other. The guys we saw at Kroger's that day never showed up anywhere in town. Then one day Bill List was dead, murdered, and the whole story came out in the Daily Citizen, the Bay Area News Paper.
The List Mansion was built like a prison, not to keep people out but to keep people in. As it turns out Bill List had a preference for younger men and would cruise the alleyways and parts of Houston where runaways would frequent. He would offer them a place to stay and drugs in return for his indulgences for the young men.
Bill would keep them drugged and locked in the mansion, providing everything for them but freedom. Some would stay and others would eventually be let go but it was the final group of guys who figured it all out. They decided that Bill List must die, so one day they got a hold of a shotgun and waited for Bill to come home from work. Bill never made it up the stairs from the garage before he was shot and killed. The guys who killed him ransacked the mansion, stole Bills credit cards and car and left. Some were picked up on their way to Canada; others were caught in the Houston area.
For years after the death of Bill List, the mansion was up for sale and yet no one would buy it. Caretakers were brought in to maintain the property and eventually a bunch of people who had a rock and roll band rented it for a while. I moved from Seabrook in the early 90's. Eventually, a real estate land developer bought the List Mansion and he tore down the mansion. In its place he built stucco condos with clay tile roofs. There is nothing left of the list mansion except the sorted stories of the long time residents of Seabrook.

today sara referenced a human giant skit we saw one time that was AMAZING. I couldn't find it on youtube but did stumble upon some equally hilarious human giant skits. I laughed so hard when I watched them I cried. I love laughing that hard because it sticks with you and makes everything after that funny.

And you were raising money to fight global warming. I patiently listened to your pitch, while noticing that your lips were moist and full, your eyes dilated, and my pants super tight. But then some old Polish lady came along and began to question me before I got to get into the details of what I was trying to accomplish. Well, what I'm trying to accomplish here is to bring an end to anti-hipster hate crimes. I've had it with being insulted (and worse) by strangers while walking down the street. I'll bet you are too. I mean, so what if I like drinking PBR, does that give anyone the right to throw me to the curb and pour it onto my bleeding head? We need to make it a lot less cool to make fun of us, just as it no longer is cool to make fun of Gays or women or black people. Anyway, that's what I'm up to, and I've started a new group (or I'm trying to) that I'm thinking of calling the Hipster Anti-Ignorant Defamation Society (HAIDS), or maybe Hipsters Against Stupid, Ignorant Defamation (HASID). I want to make the streets of New York safe for hipsters. If you are interested, let's get together at Verb to plot our next move or maybe swap stories. The first PBR is on me.
