For all those times you've come home from work with a throbbing headache, and the walls close in too fast, here's an iPhone app to Tarzan-in and keep you from dying. Or at least crying. It's called Happy Hours, and it's powered by Go Time and Village Voice Media.

It's chock full of the good stuff: you can view menus, comments and, of course, happy-hour specials all around town. Here's the best part: When you shake the phone, it makes an ice-in-glass sound and picks up your favorite bar or restaurant.

Oh, and it's available in 35 cities around the country, including, of course, Dallas. Click through and see Happy Hour details like menus, location and comments.

Download it here, or search for "Happy Hours" in the apps store.
