Why is driving to Bloomington a rite of passage for people in the city whose name is not allowed to be mentioned on this thread?
Did you ever think you were sooooo cool driving to Bloomington with your buddies back when you were 16? I thought so. It’s the exact same thing, only with twice as many nerdy white collar upper middle class IT workers, flatter, uglier, and a helluva lot more boring.

Seems the strip mall on Knoxville just north of Rte 6 has stalled. It’s been sitting with a footing and foundation, and some curbing for the parking lot, for a couple months now. I can’t imagine what’s going there. but it’s sure odd nobody is lined up and eager to open shop.
Any word out there?

I’m not talking about you being a slacker blogger, but what’s the over/under on you actually showing up at the blogger bash this time?
Oh, that and . . .
(1) I would rather stick needles in my eyes than see Bush
(2) diminished murders, yes . . . but still murders

(9) The storm was cool - I didn’t lose any branches
(10) Isn’t everything suffering from a lack of funding these days? (PLAY IT AGAIN PEORIA)
(11) I love hoodlums
(12) Who would want to talk about snow removal. It’s July, for crying outside!
(13) Generally, Peoria is a city of almost . . . .

PH,
Very clever. How’s that working out for you?

Why was I not invited to the block party?

Don’t look at me, I wasn’t in charge. You could have crashed it, and I’m sure Mrs. PI would have shared some of her firebreathing tequilas with you!

Rewind for a second. Isn’t there some kind of unspoken rule on the internet about comparing someone or something to Hitler or National Socialism? I think I remember hearing something about that.
