Well, Alexi did have a beer with Kirk. So that means all is forgiven and he'd, of course, be able to get Republican crossover votes now. *gag*...

I, too, grew up downstate and have heard the "Chicago stranglehold" argument my whole life. I was pleasantly surprised when my parents told me how many folks were interested in Obama last year (not su...

This was the most ridiculous, choreographed piece of bullshit I've ever seen -- a crap cherry on the shit sundae that was the 2010 Illinois Senate election. I was there with the media buzzing around ...

They already did that on My Name is Earl, when Joy wrestled her black half-sister who was trying out for BLOW (Black Ladies of Wrestling) in character as her racist arch nemesis the Klanimal. I think...

I don't agree with Reinsdorf on much of anything 100% but on this we are totally on the same page. Also, "pissant" is such a great, underused insult. Too many names that I find myself wanting to use...

This is no joking matter, but the fact that I can't even enjoy the fact that Mariotti might be fired (because of how it happens) just proves how unfair the world can be sometime. I really hope that h...

I'd like to think you were right, Ward Up. I think the adults in the Republican party know this is a dead issue for all but the members of their base who are going to probably vote for them anyway and...

Yeah, I had plenty to say about how gross this whole exchange is, but (a) that's all been covered better by my fellow commenters and (b) this is the only comment that now matters....

Which, is, by the way totally a reason why I live in Illinois. I'll never be skinny, but around here I won't qualify as fat either....

As someone who has lived in Illinois for nearly all of my 35 years, I feel this headline, though true and fitting of the story, falls in the "In other news, water is wet" category....

Not to be a totally shallow homosexual here (though it was Pride this weekend, the closest I got to the parade was the Chicagoist pictures) but for the older ladiers, I'm disappointed with the May-boy...

To be clear, I didn't find the post or linked articles to be of questionable quality -- just that the lifestyle described was something I found morally objectionable :) But seriously, the 'healthy op...

Eating right at the Taste of Chicago = Doing it wrong...

You know the only think I like better than being able to search for information I want on the Internet is having somebody else do it for me. Thanks....
