Your 11 Favorite Lifestyle Stories in 2018
Is it just us, or did 2018 feel about as long as an entire decade? With the never-ending barrage of news alerts, it was especially imperative for our collective sanity to take a break from the more troubling stuff from time to time in favor of something, well, lighter.
It's Been a While, But Markus Zusak is Back with 'Bridge of Clay'
Before he wrote The Book Thief, Australian author Markus Zusak was working on another idea—an idea that scared him. For more than two decades, the idea grew and changed, transforming into something that has come to represent much more than the resulting book. Last week, Bridge of Clay made its debut. Zusak’s first novel in 13 years is a stunningly ambitious family epic focused on the lives of five brothers.
Milwaukee - Baseball Prospectus
For better or worse, one of the most popular narratives surrounding the Brewers over the last few months has been this: Milwaukee needs to add another starting pitcher. It’s an easy thing to understand: The ragtag crew of hurlers preventing runs in the Brewers’ rotation lacks a brand-name “ace,” and most of that group has been knocked around a bit lately.

'Stro Style: Reflecting on 53 Years of Uniforms
Look, we know this is silly. Baseball uniforms are baseball uniforms, and they will never not resemble pajamas on some level. That being said, few major league teams can rival the legacy of sartorial innovation exhibited over the years by our Houston Astros. Astros jerseys have been a lot of things, but they’ve rarely been boring. In a landscape crammed with dull road grays and countless pinstripes, that’s saying something.
18|8 Fine Men’s Salons Opens Champion Forest Location
Life in Champion Forest quietly became a little more coiffed last month with the opening of a new 18|8 Fine Men’s Salon at 5508 FM 1960 West. It’s the latest addition to the 18|8 family, which now numbers nearly 100 nationwide—and yet another sign of the booming barbershop resurgence sweeping the land. Step into the new 1,600 square-foot space and it’s not difficult to understand the trend.
You've Got Mail: One Houston Couple's Love Story
My wife and I had a less-than-typical first date. To start, we were surrounded by dozens of dead bodies—plastinated, naked, and doing strange things like playing soccer. It was also about the third time we’d ever spoken in person. Everything up until then was housed in letters, tens of thousands of words floating around in the dozens of emails we’d spilled ourselves into over the previous several months. If I’m being honest, we weren’t even sure that it was a date.
Q Clothier and Rye 51 Arrive at Heights Mercantile
The newest tenants of Heights Mercantile, Q Clothier and Rye 51, announced their presence last Thursday night with an upbeat grand opening in support of the Houston Fire Department. Hip and stylish with a classic, easygoing vibe, the upscale menswear brands are everything you already love about the Heights. That’s reflected in their new retail space, which mixes austere, industrial design with warm, masculine touches like wood shelving and a cowhide rug.
Remembering David Bowie, Starman of Style
David Bowie died two years ago today. He left behind a vacuum in music, fashion, and art that none can fill. When you hear or read about Bowie’s style, one phrase is omnipresent: gender-bending. The rock icon was exploring the gender binary as early as 1970, when the cover of The Man Who Sold the World featured a long-haired Bowie reclining on a chaise longue in a satin dress and knee-high leather boots.
Milwaukee - Baseball Prospectus
Outside my apartment is a deep and endless sea of orange. I live in Houston, where the Astros just dispatched the Yankees en route to their first American League pennant. While it’s hard not to get caught up in the city’s infectious enthusiasm, mostly I wonder when Milwaukee will experience a similar moment. I grew up in Wisconsin, where my summers were soundtracked by Bob Uecker and the highlight of my year was a trip to County Stadium. My favorite baseball player was, hands down, Jose Valentin.
