Dec 10th, 2008 | By Scott | Category: Movies

Bolt is a story about a Dog (named Bolt!) who is the star of a hit TV show. In the TV show Bolt has super powers and saves the world time and time again, with his trusty sidekick (and owner) Penny. To keep the show ‘real’ the producers create elaborate ways to keep Bolt ignorant […]



Album Review: ‘Chinese Democracy’ by Guns N’ Roses

Nov 20th, 2008 | By Scott | Category: Reviews

Ok. I will admit. I expected to hate this record. When you hear that a musician spent $13 million dollars to record, fired every single member of several incarnations of the band, and the record takes 13 years to finish, the chances it will live up to the hype is slim to none. Welcome to […]

Olympic Snag

Oct 25th, 2008 | By Scott | Category: Lead Story

Would you be willing to give up use of a prized lane on the Kennedy Expressway and South Lake Shore Drive for two weeks to help Chicago win the 2016 Olympics? How about if, in so doing, Chicago could increase its odds of getting billions of federal dollars for new and improved Chicago Transit […]

Cubs Blow Season

Oct 3rd, 2008 | By Scott | Category: Lead Story
