We are smack-dab in the middle of silly season......
Dear Beyonce, please save HER Ordinance. Despite the fact that you are a New Yorker, and have few remaining ties to Houston, pretty please?

Six places to avoid in Houston if you value your sanity. If you are still an "undecided" voter, knowing what we know about Houston and its current condition.......
And finally.....
Hard Knocks on HBO premiers tonight. Which I will be watching and so should you if you can.
