My chair began to rock me...UPDATE!
...a few minutes before 1 PM (CDT), first gently, then a pause, and then the rocking was a bit more substantial for about 30 seconds.
Perhaps it's due to the less than 5 magnitude quake in Virginia?
For more info, go to http://www.usgs.gov/
UPDATE: 5.9 earthquake in Va, Felt in NYC

Just how accurate is weather radar?
As of 9:30 AM (CDT), this map shows all of Chicago having somewhere between light and heavy rain.
But...it is not raining here, at 9:49 AM (CDT).
Oh, yes, the rains will come...soon...but what does this graphic say for the accuracy of http://www.accuweather.com/us/il/chicago/60610/forecast-current-conditions.asp?
Just for fun...
...so you can begin Tuesday with a grin! (You know you won't get THAT from Bluff Daddy Obama!).
Of course, they COULD have gone around the fence, butt...that sheeple for ya, ain't it?

Great News for those with ALS!
Major ALS Breakthrough
Researchers discover common cause of all forms of ALS
Read more here.
*********
I am soooo happy re: this discovery!
Back in January, 1982, my dear mother passed away, after struggling with the ravages of ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) for a little over two and a half years.
Thank you, Dr. Siddique, for your determination and years of research! So many can finally see some light!

Stylizing Marilyn
J. Seward Johnson, the octagenarian sculptor, recently had his huge sculpture of Marilyn Monroe erected in Pioneer Court here in downtown Chicago.
This is a still from the scene between Marilyn and Tom Ewell in the film "The Seven Year Itch". The following are a few shots of what I prefer to call "J. Seward's Folly".
It's obvious I do not care for this thing. It entices all, men especially, to stand below the crotch area and have photos taken looking or reaching up. Do small children really need to see Daddy looking up a skirt?
What interested me more was the lack of 'quality control' in the assembly of this monstrosity. Just look at the lumpy arm below.

Pretty poorly done, wouldn't you say?
I ended my Mag Mile sojourn simply by rotating 180 degrees in order to view much more impressive 'sculpture'!

My take...
You know, I really don't care sometimes.
If you voted for Obama, as did several of my no-longer-friends, I hope you're doing well...but as I saw one of these former friends, rushing off the bus to get to the train today, I had to smirk...NO...stifle a giggle. He, the balding girly-man, wanted to make certain he did not have any contact with me.
His business is five floors below me; his car is parked in the lot right outside my window. He knows me.
Which is why he rushed to get out of the bus and get up the escalators to the train at the Howard stop, here in Chicago.
He wanted to avoid meeting me.
He is one of the three (it seems) complicit people trying to 'take me down'.
He is a well-known gay, and tries very hard to use the 'gayness' to attract other gays to his technology-oriented business, five floors below me.
He told me several years ago that I was his friend, then balked after I had scanned and transferred 70 hours of his family's film, which I had to wash, hang to straighten, and Photoshop (TM) to make a reasonable presentation. I asked for $400, I got $300.
This girly-man was my friend...and I did not fault him for being soooooo girly. He WAS my friend...but no longer. Neither he, Kris Luck, nor his buddy Bill Morton, who owes me over $1,400, plus another $1,000+ vis a vis my monies invested to incorporate and promote the failing Rogers Park Chamber of Commerce, are 'business persons' I would ever deal with again...and I caution all of you to be wary of these men.
Grifters...it's the word that comes to mind, especially concerning the Rogers Park Chamber of Commerce Director/Interim Treasurer, self-proclaimed Bishop James Alan Wilkowski, who works for David Orr. Need I say more?
These are liars, and cheats, and thieves...and oh, yes, OH MY!
