For those with a sweet tooth, I thought I would note some bakeries & chocolatiers in the Chicago area, in no particular order.
Bleeding Heart Bakery is very neat bakery with vegan/vegetarian items as well. The baked goods tend to an ecletic approach that ends up with pleasant flavors & textures, which are handled well with the variety of single tarts. Traditional items are done...

It has been a while since I've done a restaurant review post, mainly because I have not eaten out at different local places recently. Well, I thought it was time for something a different, so I decided to make my way to "Mado" at 1647 N. Milwaukee.

I thought I might be getting close to finishing Asimov's "Foundation" series, but, after I got Prelude to Foundation from the library, the author's note states that the "Foundation" series is just the end of his novels also involving robots as well as the "Galatic Empire." So, the various series are then compounded into a 15 book story taking place over thousands & thousands of...

Is anyone up for a midnight showing of the "Rocky Horror Picture Show" at the Music Box this Saturday? It tends to be fun & crazy times!

Yesterday was World Naked Ride Chicagohttp://chicago.worldnakedbikeride.org/, which was a fun time!

A lot of people showed up, and one rather cool costume was of an individual who painted himself completely blue...

I will be on a 2+ week vacation to Hong Kong & Southern China, so I will most likely be out of contact (I will most definitely have other things to do than spend time on line). Take care and be free!
Have fun & do well!!

oh hey, happy birthday!
I have just read an extravagantly beautiful passage, and I have no idea of what to do next! It was so beautiful that I was blissfully smilingly & weeping at the same time.

Good to see SGC out tonight, but I must admit it was smaller than I was anticipating. Good, bad; I'll never know.
