Summer’s coming. You can just feel that warm buzz in the air. Suddenly hippie guys are roaming the valleys and neighborhoods, looking for that ‘odd job’ to get them through summer vacation. Some yard work maybe or going door to door even, and offering guitar lessons — or some crazy shit like that. Your parents are out of town and your brother’s home alone. Doorbell rings and then he, uh oh, invites the big bearded hippie bear in. A bowl is smoked. Some strings plucked. A shoulder rub…and then…Watch it all now!

File Under:Must Haves

Is it our imagination or did Christopher Lowell get operated on not to remove wrinkles but to remove gayface? Girl, you look like a man! Either that or this recent publicity still from his website has broken some poor Photoshop pro’s software into a heap.

Bonus points if you can tell us which episode of Maude featured Bea Arthur wearing the exact same Nehru jacket/burgundy blouse ensemble as Mr. Lowell.

But we’re just playing the mean bitch role. Given that our appreciation for Christopher’s craft remains as steadfast as ever, it’s time to announce that Mr. Lowell has a new book slated for publication. You’ll want to pre-order your copy early. Christopher Lowell’s One-of-a-Kind Decorating Projects will be released in early April.
