Retro Plano

Doing some pre-move cleaning and came across this. We are guessing that the picture is from Spring 1991 based on the area where the land is being cleared for the Tollway extension to Headquarters that opened in ‘94. Also thinking that the complex that would be featured on the postcard would have been the EDS complex had it been open (1993). But… the back of the card mentions the EDS computer complex which wouldn’t be in operation if it was in ‘91.

What say ye Plano historians?

Does anyone have experience with SunRun VPP?

I'm considering the virtual power plant thing that they talked to me about yesterday. I read through the documents and it looks like it works as they say, paying $0.11/kwh to them but not owning the panels or battery. Is anyone participating already? How has your experience been?

Looking for a D&D 5.5e Player in North Plano! (Possibly Temporary)

We’re a friendly group playing Dungeons & Dragons 5.5e every Sunday from Noon to 9 PM [Yes, nine hours!]. Our games are hosted in a clean, smoke/child/distraction-free home with cats. We're all in our 20s–30s, working professionals, and take the game seriously while keeping it fun and laid-back.

We have an opening for roughly half of November and all of December. Depending on the other players’ schedules, this could turn into a permanent position that replaces one of the others. Alternatively, we're open to having a backup player who joins us when available. Backup players can expect fairly frequent opportunities to play, though the schedule will be irregular.

Our hope is to find someone who shares our passion for gaming, whether they're totally new to the system or have years of experience. Ideal candidates would be:

  1. Sociable and mature. Someone who fits well with our group dynamic. Not everyone does, and that's fine.
  2. Engaged and attentive. Willing to pay attention, learn and keep up with the system and documented homebrew rules.
  3. Consistent. Able to make sessions reliably when scheduled to play.

If this sounds like a good fit for you, reach out! Candidates will be contacted individually for a casual public interview.

Does anyone remember this Plano neighborhood story from the 80s?

This is a very random old Plano memory that I’m hoping someone who lived here in the 70s or 80s might remember.

I grew up in Plano, and sometime in the early/mid-1980s my mom told me about a house on Roundrock Trail, just south of Parker Road. I believe it was on the west side of Roundrock and one of the first few houses south of Parker. I remember driving past it as a kid and thinking it was a cute, somewhat distinctive two-story house.

The story my mom had heard from a friend was that more than one family who had lived in the house had lost a baby or very young son. I vaguely remember hearing SIDS and/or an accidental fall mentioned. Supposedly several different families had experienced tragedies involving young boys, and the house developed a reputation that made it difficult to sell.

I was a child at the time, so after 40+ years some of those details could absolutely be wrong or have gotten mixed up. I’m also deliberately not posting a specific house number because I don’t want to associate a current homeowner’s property with an old rumor unless there’s actually evidence for it.

Does anyone who lived in west/central Plano around 1975–1986 remember hearing this story? Or remember a house on Roundrock near Parker that had this reputation?

I’m mostly curious whether this was a real piece of old Plano neighborhood lore that other people remember, and whether there was any truth behind it.

The most obvious panhandling scam. Plano,TX

Spring Creek and DNT (south bound). This guy is on this block at the end or beginning of every month just about.

Don’t give your money to him. There is nothing in that suitcase. He is impeding on an actual homeless man’s usual spot. If he is not a cop he is really lazy. Instead of standing outside he could go gig work like door dash or ride share. Under $200 is an easy payday loan.

Sorry guys but this just makes me angry every time I see him standing there. If this is real getting evicted every month he has to do a lifestyle change. I have multiple jobs to make ends meet and so can you.

4 months: No Registration Sticker

I bought a used Nissan almost 4 months ago from Gulliver Auto in Plano.

The car is decent but I still do not have a registration sticker almost 4 months since sale.

The car came with a license plate that has a 07/2027 expiration date but there is no sticker yet.

I checked txt dps where is my sticker tool and there it shows no details/transaction.

Gulliver has been pushing me around for last two months without clarity on the sticker. What can I do?

Also is my car illegal right now.

Anyone know what happened to this machine that was at Plano Market Square Mall?

Yeah this is a long shot of an ask given that the place was torn down 4 years ago. But for those who remember Market Square Mall (previously Outlet Malls of America), does anyone remember this Print Club 2 machine and know what happened to it? I'm going to assume it was either sold off or destroyed with the mall. I know probably none of you know the answer to this or may think its a dumb thing to ask but I was thinking about this thing recently. I remember going to the mall a few times around 2019 and I never saw it working.
