Got a case of the seaweed blues?

Here's what else there is to do in Galveston.
<p>It's the summer of seaweed in Galveston, and though it's perfectly safe (and still pretty fun) to brave the mountains of beachside weed for a dip in the Gulf, now may be the perfect time to try out all the other things Galveston has to offer.</p>

Our planet is often a beautiful place.

These satellite images taken by NASA showcase a world filled with an array of vegetation and geographical types that we, the earth's inhabitants, just don't have the elevation or perspective to see.

Wow! That's fucked up I wish Manziel would've actually replace brees because all these years the saints been having brees and all he does was getting sacked a lot and he can't even throw the damn ball to one of the players for god sake I mean like come on! Is there another way that the saints can replace that pathetic quarterback on the team?

Show up for free chicken and fries, and then suddenly a party breaks out ...
<p>Despite whatever national furor the chicken chain may have caused with its owner's public comments on same-sex marriage, new Chick-Fil-A store openings are kind of a big deal in Texas. C<span style="font-size: 13px;">hick-Fil-A on Thursday opens its newest location in Richmond, Texas - about 30 miles southwest of downtown Houston - with the company's not signature First 100 celebration.</span></p>

This weekend, Galveston hosted its official welcome to summer: the Galveston Island Beach Revue. Check out all the photos from this weekend's event, including the ladies of the hotly-contested "Bathing Beauties" vintage swimsuit contest.

How many people live in Houston?  

Some interesting perspective and weird facts - http://bit.ly/RH9WhV  
<p>To put it in more ridiculous terms, if an NFL Draft were held to draft Houstonians, it would take 24,660 years' worth of picks before every man, woman and child were assigned to a team (and people would still be upset the Texans didn't pick Johnny Manziel).</p>
