The vixen wants to take seduction up a notch, but she wants to do it in style. She’s comfortable with herself and isn’t afraid of a little leather or something a little daring, so we’ve chosen these luxurious pieces to compliment her sassy attitude. Guys, be warned: don’t buy these picks unless you’re absolutely certain she’s a vixen!

Discovering some interesting things about my genetics:
Blondes to “die out” in 200 years, (although Snopes seems to think this one’s a fake).

The Never-Ending Past

Travel often brings about feelings of inadequacy. You feel that you’re doing the same ol’ thing as everyone else, experiencing the same things, following a predetermined path set out by the gods of Lonely Planet, and so on. And you meet people half your age doing the same things and having identical reactions to their surroundings. Or people twice your age. Travel is sort of ageless that way. The 19-year-olds are indistinguishable from the 45-year-olds. All your life experiences and wisdom, all those years of paying your dues in the real world, don’t seem to matter very much.

…It seems that many of the Korean-owned businesses aim at Spanish-speakers more than Anglos. (Someone should open a restaurant out here called Jose Cho’s TaKorea.)
John Lomax and David Beebe explore Houston’s Long Point neighborhood. I’m not missing kimchi or gamjatang enough yet.

The solid gold turd

Part of me understands why people say ‘Fuck Houston’ in their heads, and move to New York or LA. Houston can be ugly, unromantic, and like Seth said, make “every other place seem exotic.” But the bigger part of me, the part of me strapped to rap music and the Orange Show, says fuck you for not giving Houston respect for what it is. Houston may be a city wrapped in cold urban banality and hot shitty weather, but the culture and artists that exist in this town are not irrelevant or deserving of marginalization. This city is like a solid gold turd at the bottom of an outhouse — you may feel awkward or disgusting picking it up out of the pot, but you’re an asshole if you let it just sit there. — Gene Morgan on art, hometowns and Wes Anderson

To add to my obsession with the dark side of fame, I was extremely fascinated by this list of famous people who’ve considered suicide.
