Two weeks ago, I got a tour of the new office. We’ll be occupying a whole floor of a lovely building on the Chicago River. At the end of today, movers will begin taking our stuff over to the new space. My new desk is next to a window. I believe I will have a view of the guest rooms at the Hotel Monaco. If I see any nudity, I will totally let you know contact the authorities before donning a...

we need to have a video podcast

absurdlakefront replied to your post: high fashion on the 36 bus Every week is fashion week on the 36. Wherein we ride the 36 bus from end to end, offering commentary on passengers as they board. It would be so major.

The New Standard, New York Bikes Have Arrived

standardhotels: Last year, when someone finally told me that I didn’t need a driver’s license to ride a bike, I moved “Learn To Ride Bike” to the top of my Teux Deux list! And just in time too! Remember last year’s bikes? Being that I live my life season by season as opposed to year by year, I needed a new to bike to complement my Fall Winter designer fashions, and my Stan D’elovelies at...

I Was Hit By A Car This Morning: Purpose →

hitbyacarthismorning: I wanted to say once again that the injuries I sustained were extremely minor. I have friends who were involved in much more serious hit and run bike accidents. Mine pales in comparison. The reason I’m doing this isn’t to be compensated, but to make sure this person is punished and maybe even…

My Friend Carly Was Hit By A Car This Morning →

You guys. My friend Carly was hit by a car this morning while biking to work. She’s fine but it was a hit and run so she needs to find the driver. I think the police would like to find him or her, too. If you were biking near Milwaukee and Ogden this morning around 7:11 AM, and saw a silver Nissan 350z, or a car that looks like it, please let Carly know, okay?
