I caught a guy on the Brown line trying to pick a woman's wallet from her bag about this time last year. It was a crowded morning commute and he pretended he was trying to get from one end of the trai...

I love the air and water show. My dad took me when I was a kid and there's something about the roar of supersonic jets that still transforms me into a giddy schoolboy. But the days start to perceptib...

Cho Sun Ok is the best. My worst dinner there was better than the only one I had San Soo Gab San....

My wife and I got one of these bum stickers. It has no working adhesive whatsoever. The adhesive is there, but it's completely dry. I'm a genius, so I even licked the back thinking they'd made a switc...

You're right. Not so secret anymore, I suppose. I should have posted that a year or two ago....

I hate to see the secret get out, but yes, Ten Cat is great. The regulars who play pool there really give the place personality (although the bizarre house rules can be a bit confounding). Nearby Long...

Goodbye, BlueFairlane. I'll miss you....

I'm not a soccer fan (yet), but I live in the neighborhood and recommend that anyone intent on watching World Cup at The Globe arrive there early, as by game time there will be a line of 15 to 20 peop...

I'll add that Forbes will twist itself into knots to find any metric that reflects poorly on Chicago. I don't know if they have a disgruntled editor who got dumped and moved away or what, but they've ...

The much narrower Nichols Bridgeway (which also has a much better view of Michigan Avenue) was open just 100 yards away. Everything else in the park and surrounding area was open to pedestrian traffic...

Cubs are gonna lose a lot of heartbreakers this season unless they can strike some gold digging in the minors. Marmol, as much as I love the guy, is not closer material. I was hoping Guzman could be t...

This should win some kind of mugshot award. So subtle and perfect....

Is smoking in government buildings legal in D.C.? I thought members of congress had their indoor smoking privileges revoked a few years back. Obama shouldn't be above the law. I'm just sayin....

Great work, Kevin....
