Christmas shopping at The Galleria, incessant caroling and a just a touch of holiday-induced agoraphobia have Houstonist feeling a bit out of sorts today. Our feathers and lackadoogles are more than slightly ruffled. Unfortunately, we can do nothing buscept press on with our holiday chores and hole up inside the HQ once said tasks are complete. That's when we're planning to throw back a cocktail or six like a Ruffled Rooster. more ›

"Summertime and the livins easy" until you mow the lawn and sweat your ass off in the process. Why not relax and let the kid down the street mow your yard? They could use the money to pay for their iPhone service plan and you could use the break. Wouldn't it be satisfying to sit in the shade sippin' a cold beverage while s/he sweats to death? All you need is the perfect drink.... more ›

It's now up to Milstein what to do with the body — Smith's mother, Virgie Arthur, wanted her buried in Texas, but her boyfriend, Howard K. Stern, said she should be buried with her son in the Bahamas. (Smith apparently told Arthur several years ago that she wanted to be buried near Marilyn Monroe, who is entombed in Los Angeles.) No one's sure yet what Milstein will do with Smith's body, but Seidlin gave his opinion of what should happen: "I want her to be buried with her son in the Bahamas," he said. "I want them to be together." more ›

Houstonist loves fried chicken and breakfast — but we've never really thought about combining the two, outside the occasional order of chicken and waffles at The Breakfast Klub. We suspect we're not alone, and apparently Chick-fil-A feels the same way: The company is rolling out an unusual set of new billboards to encourage people to have chicken for breakfast. more ›
