    Best obit ever, huge celebrity hack and toaster chicken

    Best obit ever, huge celebrity hack and toaster chicken
    play icon

    Editor's note: There's so much that's beautiful, funny, smart and informative on the Internet. Problem is, there's also a bunch of garbage. Here's the best of the web right now:

    1. Hackers reportedly infiltrate financial information of more than a dozen celebs. Michelle Obama, Kim Kardashian, Ashton Kutcher, Beyonce and Mel Gibson are among the victims of a hack first reported by TMZ and later picked up by Politico.

    2. Justin Timberlake shows off his sweet dance moves. Joining the Five-Timers Club wasn't enough for venerable SNL host JT. He also performed his new hit single "Suit and Tie" featuring Jay-Z, who performed sans tie. When you're Jay-Z, you wear what you want, lyrics be damned.

    3. The best obituary ever. To wit: "Harry Weathersby Stamps, ladies' man, foodie, natty dresser, and accomplished traveler, died on Saturday, March 9, 2013." Since then, his obit has been plastered all over the Internet. The Dallas Morning News found a local connection on all the hubbub, namely that Stamps' daughter and obit writer, Amanda Lewis, is an Irving attorney.

    4. Five new products that prove humanity is doomed. Suffice it to say that if you are so lazy that you need toaster-ready chicken, there is no hope for you. Or America.

    5. This dog looks exactly like Samuel L. Jackson. The hat and glasses help, but the mug on this pug is unreal.

    Chickens were not made to go in toasters.

    Editor's note: In the top Dallas news of the week, Big D shines in two new reports. Plus, two hot restaurant openings and a gleaming Texas glamping experience. Get the details on our most popular Dallas stories below, then visit this event guide to make some weekend plans.

    3. Dallas surpasses Austin in new ranking of America's best cities. A just-released national report ranking the best cities in America has declared Dallas is the 14th best U.S. city in 2025. Dallas climbed up two spots from its No. 16 rank in 2024, and in the process eclipsed Austin. So sorry, Austin.

    4. Crazy mirrored glamping houses near Austin reflect back the trees. Just in time for unbearable temperatures across Texas, the Lower Colorado River Authority has debuted a cool glamping solution. The Ööd Mirror Houses are LCRA Parks' newest accommodations at Lake Bastrop South Shore Park, about 40 minutes outside of Austin.

    5. Savvy chef team to open Elia Greek Tavern in Dallas' Bishop Arts. A new restaurant is coming to a revered Oak Cliff location. Called Elia Greek Tavern, it will open this summer in Bishop Arts at 205 N. Bishop Ave., better known as the former home of Nora Restaurant and Bar.
