Annise Parker makes history as Houston's new mayor →

Annise Parker became Houston’s mayor Saturday night beating Gene Locke with 53 percent of the vote in the hotly contested mayoral runoff.
Parker’s win makes Houston the largest U.S. city ever to have an openly gay mayor.

Ali’s company trucked in snow for their holiday party last night.
They build a giant slide for kids to go down in a tube. Frosty was there this morning to greet all the workers.
You won’t last the weekend in Houston, buddy.

Yelp

Since I just got an iPhone I will be using Yelp a lot for resturants and such in and around Houston.

You Houston people should add me as a friend. http://mjrastiello.yelp.com/

I was on a photowalk on Saturday and as I walked behind City Hall I found the parks department putting Houston’s Christmas tree up.
