Mr. Cub!

While out and about on this fine (19 degree!) day, Ed and I happened to run into Mr. Cub himself - Ernie Banks. He was posing for some pics in Millennium Park, in front of Cloud Gate, with some guys from Vineline and they were kind enough to let us hang around and take some shots.

I've never been much of a coffee drinker. But this summer I discovered "frappucino." More specifically, Mint Mocha Chip ($3.30 tall, $3.80 Grande, $4.30 Venti).

I can't prove it, but Starbucks is putting heroin in their drinks. How else to explain the daily urge that overcame me shortly after waking? With a program of self-discipline, meditation and methadone (Pepsi, actually) I was able to pry myself away from my crippling addiction to that minty, creamy, mocha goodness.

The saddest thing about the holidays is when they are over. There are melancholy reminders of them everywhere: smashed pumpkins, denuded Christmas trees, sagging and faded tinsel.
