Wednesday, January 14, 2009. When They Used to call it Christmas. Carson's Main Isle (Notions Dept.) 1958. Marshall Field's Main Isle 1941. Marshall Field's Toy Department 1949 Candy Cane Lane. Remember when the Christmas season used to be called the CHRISTMAS SEASON? Not the "holidays", semester break, winter break, blah, blah, blah. Come see the Macy's holiday tree!

Tuesday, February 17, 2009. Now they are willing to be cooperative and bipartisan since THEIR guy is in the White House. It is no great effort to be so when your side holds the keys.

Vintage Chicago: MCHS/BLHS
http://vintagechicago.blogspot.com/2009/10/i-have-been-back-in-high-school-since.html
Thursday, October 22, 2009. It causes me to often rethink my own high school experience. What would it be like to be able to do it all over with the experience and wisdom{? Of my current self?

Thursday, September 25, 2008. Who in their right minds would bother to take the time to reconnect with their elementary school classmates you ask? More than half of a class of 57, that's who! Crazy teachers, classroom high jinx, first crushes, slumber parties remembered, playground torments regretted. Acknowledgement that apologies were due to kids not treated terribly well.
