Frp... the "...see the above Alcalas boots reference...." was a reference to my own comments. But perhaps you might want to check into Alcalas so you can have some boots to quake in Tower18, you have a great fashion voice! Are you gonna start the Chicagoist Style Section? Perhaps like Vice Magzine's "Do's" and "Don'ts section!

Tower: I stand corrected.

Matilda, no one in the hippest neighborhoods in Brooklyn is stylishly dressed. Ironically disheveled might be the term you're looking for.

peteypants don't worry, you know I'm all up and down with mexican Austin Texas" solidarity thing, word. Because ya boy Spook not only rooks the coldest*( from my collection) western boots from Alcalas but is down with the whole Zapatistas struggle, kid! So I'll turn my head on the britney spears thing, I guess we all have our "thangs". Viva SubComandante Marcos! Frp, word on the streets is that you've been spending most of your summer indoors. What good is a Chicagoist T shirt if you can't wear it with out fear? Mail it back to Chicagist and you can breath again! Krill-Tilda Unfortunately, I haven't pulled the revolution off enough where I can be stylishly dressed at ALL times, but I am a lot of the time,- pleas see the above Alcalas boots reference ;-)

@frp: My grandmother used to say So what? Sew buttons. And hip that lady was not.

Yeah, I said, "Oh snap." So what? Sew buttons on your underwear.

@matilda -- Oh snap!

We get it Spook. You are not only brilliant and wise, but stylishly dressed at all times, as though you were living in the hippest part of Brooklyn instead of the Midwest. I am amazed you are not yet a rock star. Or a famous intellectual with frequent readings in Paris. Or have attracted a large following on MySpace and landed your own reality show. What are you waiting for? Certainly, you have not allowed THE MAN to keep you down, have you, son?

Main difference between me and Aaaaahndrea: I would *never* use a non-mechanical pencil. Yeeesh.

spook, i was agreeing with the post. i wouldn't use the red eye to wipe my ass. and i happen to be a mexican from texas, bad dresser, shaggy-haired, and underpaid in the non-profit field...but i adore britney spears so you got that part right.

don't worry this aint no rapprochement, just temporary armistice so I can say Great story Lyons! And some how I suspect that Peteypants is one of those tan cotton docker wearing prefect square hair cut having, well scrubbed pink midwest mindset captivated persons who I see every work day morning. Just bopping along towards the el station, clueless (as the World burns around us) making a pit stop to that bright "Free" Red Stupid Eye box to get their "news source" so they can start off the day as yet another "well informed" Dullmerican on all that is important to them, the Cubs, Bears, reality tv, what Britney Spears and Tom Cruise are up to, etc, etc, bla bla bland, bla bla bland now back to the hostilities!

Wow! The resemblance between Margaret Lyons and Andrea Zuckerman is uncanny. I love whenever Chicagoist starts on the Red Eye hating. It never ceases to amuse me.

...should eclipse the Red Eye in terms of quality and worthwhileness almost immediately. I thought this was the Red Eye.
