This American Life Live tickets are for sale now. It's not live-and-in-person, though; it's a live broadcast to a bunch of movie theaters. Weird! [link]

Click on #4. Happy heart attack!

Do you take the Edens? Oh, you do? Sucks. Enjoy that traffic jam for the next six months. [Trib]

The bloxes are flucking awesome, although if I'm gonna spend a thousand bucks for a fort (like the one they're selling), I'd want it to be fire proof, or at least water proof.

Speaking of, isn't $60 rather steep for twenty pieces of cardboard?

I'd like to thank the aptly named IDOT for not putting up signs well in advance notifying drivers that traffic would be fucked starting today for the foreseeable future. I had absolutely no idea until this morning.

I look forward to reliving my salad days of enduring the Schlitz s**ts. Almost as much fun as the Labatts splats and the Icehouse brown trout. So many memories...
