Houston Galleria
Opened in 1970, Houston's Galleria is the original, in the sense that it was the first mall in the U.S. to fuse a mall with hotels and office towers, not to mention an ice skating rink bigger than Rockefeller Center. The mixed-use concept has been used in other malls since then, but this was the first, and therefore important in the evolution of malls. Modeled after the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele in Milan, Italy. Currently about 375 stores and 50 restaurants.

Frylock
Smoldering, intelligent, hovering anthropomorphic red box of french fries. One third of the Aqua Teen Hunger Force on adult swim. Only one of the three having destructive super powers - a heat blast from the eyes. Has a dark gray goatee and what appears to be a lightening bolt scar under his left eye. Wears dental braces which are seen only when he smiles, which is rare. Has a peculiar large blue jewel attached to his back, perhaps the energy source of the heat ray and/or his levitation ability. Has limited use of the fries as appendages. Frylock is usually the most rational member of the team, the comedic "straight man." A picture of Frylock with a young Dr. Weird (an ATHF nemesis) on Frylock's bookshelf, and an anatomy chart of Frylock on his bedroom wall, suggest early ties with Dr. Weird.
Frylock: Shake this is an important scientific tool, I mean - surgery, space exploration, can't you just see the applications?
Shake: Yes... make my johnson bigger!
Frylock: It's NOT a toy, Shake.
Shake: We're doing my johnson first, and lemme find some chicks and upgrade their butts! 'Cause baby likes back.

apocatastasis
A restoration to the original condition. A name given to the theological belief that a time will come when all free creatures will share in the grace of salvation, even the devils and lost souls. According to this dogma, the reason hell exists is to separate good from evil in the soul. It is therefore not an eternal punishment, but an amelioration. A time will come when all evil shall cease to be, since it has no existence of its own apart from the free will.

Houston
First word heard from the moon. The nation's fourth largest city and home to the Texas Medical Center (the world's largest) and NASA's Johnson Space Center.
Few cities in the world can match H-Town as a source for blues and rap talent. Home of ZZ Top and Beyoncé.
One of the best places to live, work, play, eat, play music, hear music, do art, see art, get sick, get well, work out, hang out, and make a decent living doing whatever your heart says you were put on earth to do.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force
Arguably the most unique, creative and insanely funny animated cartoon concept since the introduction of The Simpsons.
The ATHF team consists of three anthropomorphic fast food characters Master Shake, Frylock and Meatwad, their jerky Joisey neighbor Carl and his swimming pool, and various comrades and nemeses.
The most popular villians are the Mooninites, two BS-spewing, Atari 2600 sprites who threaten dominance over earthlings but are actually about 28 years behind in development.
ATHF had its origins as a concept for an episode of Space Ghost Coast to Coast where Space Ghost goes to a fast food joint, orders a bunch of food, but is unable to pay for it. The restaurant arranges for their mascots to appear as guests on his talk show and the mascots hijack the show.
The episode was never made, but the characters were pitched to Cartoon Network by their writer/creators Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro and they got their own show.

The ATHF characters live in New Jesey, but the show is produced in Atlanta. Its creators are originally from Pensacola, FL, and Conyers, GA.
