Missed Connections is a plethora of behavioral and grammatical car accidents. But, who are we to say that folks should not be seeking out some sexual chocolate, a man whore or other shimmering holes. Whatever. Everybody's gotta be somewhere. By the way, come to the crawfish boil if you're looking for guys and gals from Volcano. Dick...

Each week Houstonist checks out the Missed Connections on Craiglist. We used to be baffled by your inability to express yourselves to your MCs but readiness to express yourselves to the world via an international Internet site - your words, not ours. Speaking of "your words," many of you seem to have steamer trunks full of flowing prose. Examples of MC novellas follow our MC crafted from your words. Crazy Sexy Cool Hello, Cougar,......

The infamous Texas Crawfish and Music Festival is scheduled to take place in Spring this Saturday. What goes better with crawfish than an ice cold beer?

The last time Houstonist offered up a drink recipe, we were hailing the coming of a new and warmer season. If you're like many longtime Houstonians, you've been enjoying this recent mild weather and spending as much time in the great outdoors as possible before the dreaded heat and humidity that is Summer comes rearing its ugly head around the corner. Alas, all good things must come to an end, but not like you......

It's baseball season. Looks like the Houston area MCs are off to a better start than the Astros as pitchers and catchers reported for duty. Speaking of balls, bowlers seemed to be striking out with the pins and each other. Perhaps they needed some hot Luby?

Last week marked the start of the Spring season. It's time to put away the winter coats, boots, gloves, and scarves. Wait, we're in Houston, right?

Break out the cargo shorts, polo shirts, sun dresses,......

Houstonist learned a lot this week on Craigslist's Missed Connections. Did you know the following?

Just hook up with the grocery sacker instead. your birthday is 5-17-79 - w4m - 22 my exhusband, i left you four years ago......

There's a first time for everything on Missed Connections like lap dances and ABS encounters. There's also the run of the mill rendezvouses being sought. A chicken lover wants to cluck.

Looking for Brainy Smurf... - m4m - 35 Saw you last night at JR's and......

As a public service announcement, don't forget that tomorrow night marks the beginning of Daylight Saving Time. At 2:00am on Sunday morning (late Saturday night for us party-going types), we will all be forced to set our clocks ahead by one full hour.

It's the most wonderful time of the year Sure, when Andy Williams first uttered those words he may have been praising the birth of Jesus Christ.

After feverishly consuming the first box in a single sitting, we implemented......

Maybe you're like us and just a wee bit distressed about the prospect of having no one to share chocolate-covered strawberries with this evening?
