I believe it has something to do with the way Illinois reports sex crimes. I don't really know what the difference is, but it apparently makes comparison impossible. ...

If I'm not mistaken, Chicago (or any Illinois city) never appears on this list because Illinois keeps crime statistics differently than the rest of the country. Take that, suckas!...

I've never read a Sara Paretsky book, but she did give the speech at a graduation I attended. It went for like 45 minutes, and she had this habit of sounding like she was about done, but then launchin...

Yes, God forbid we engage in any sort of human interaction whatsoever. Also, on the Red Line circa 8:45 on a weekday, I can't even move my arms enough to surf the internet anyway....

On November 12, 2010 9:09 AM in "Pig Virus," Laski Out At WGN, they said:

Well, he was Pig Vomit in the movie, but Pig Virus in real life. As for Laski, I dunno. He was mildly interesting on occasion, and also wasn't too far right or too far left, which is sorta rare on th...

I second the need for more delis. I mean, there's plenty of delis here, but for some reason something is always a little off about them. ...

Yes! They are to die for, by which I mean eating them as much as I do will hasten my death, but I don't care....

On November 3, 2010 4:35 PM in Say Adios To Four Loko?, they said:

I've never tried one of these things, but I have had a few Red Bulls and vodka in my time. I don't think it made me drunker faster than beer. This smacks of a problem that doesn't need fixing, quite f...

I can only assume the Tribune will soon be publishing the Kass column that says the choice of these weak candidates is the work of Obama/Daley to benefit, or should I say, coronate, Rahm....

Man, I'm from Ohio and I forgot all these. But yeah, Shawshank and A Christmas Story were both shot in Ohio, but not set in Ohio. ...

Nope, Fargo takes place almost exclusively in Minnesota. I don't think any of it is even set in Fargo, I think it just gets mentioned. For Ohio, I second Major League. Also, Tommy Boy....

I went back and read what Weis said, and I misspoke that he had already said they were guilty. I still don't think these two cops have much of a case, though....

On October 27, 2010 10:03 AM in Two Cops Sue Weis For Defamation, they said:

Actually I see this more as two cops trying to stick it to Weis. I don't think this will go anywhere, though. Also, I know Weis is cracking down on police misconduct, which I wholeheartedly applaud. ...
