We just pissed away, oh, an hour perusing the Chicago Postcard Museum. Howdy, The City Beautiful, Hi, Hi There Toots and the Aragon are our faves.

Wait....Hydrox cookies are gone?! Not awesome. Not awesome at all. [via]

Hey, it's the cutest Mad Men Christmas card in the whole world.

Turns out tourists like Chicago in the winter. Hotels are cheap, attractions are empty, etc.

More than 1,800 Chicago high school students are going to be student election judges.

"Martial arts for beer drinkers." AKA, our new and dangerous hobby.

I read on the Chicago Postcard Museum website that they Just opened November 1, 2007 and they had only abour 15% of their collection online.

Chuskman's Collections are just images he found on the web. That's why they are all different size images.

ChicagoPostcardMuseum.org is a welcome change from "archive" type sites.

Well worth your time.

I agree; in fact at least one of his images is stolen from me. Still, his would be very useful if flickrized, since you could map them and such.
