So you wanna find an apartment in Chicago?
If regular violence and gang crossfire don't bother you, we recommend The South Side of Chicago (which is divided up into smaller towns). These apartments are almost guaranteed to be cheap, if you don't mind trading safety for cost. If you are a relatively normal person, however, skip that area of town. Rents are not nearly as high as the medical bills. If you need a hint, how about this: this is where Bad Bad Leroy Brown lived.

My official stance on the Ten Commandments judge (Moore):
I don't particularly care if he gets put back as chief justice (it would be crappy but I wouldn't cry about it cause I'll never live there again). However, if he did something lame like get elected Governor... I will retroactively change my state residence so I will in no way be affiliated with Alabama.

Flamingo Suncatcher
This looks like something my mom might like for christmas... but does the second flamingo look like he has some bad intentions for the first flamingo? I need feedback.

Lame. A Jethro Tull band member's comments got the group booted from a classic rock station's play list (this I couldn't care less about). But I completely agree with him. And the extreme reaction the comment got (listeners requested the ban) seems to be solid proof that he's right. Okay, okay, here's the quote:
"I hate to see the American flag hanging out of every bloody station wagon, out of every SUV, every little Midwestern house in some residential area," Ian Anderson was quoted as saying in an interview published Sunday in the Asbury Park Press. "It's easy to confuse patriotism with nationalism. Flag waving ain't gonna do it."

From an article on a live cheap, look rich lifestyle.
"Get married, but don’t have kids. According to Andrew Oswald, an economist at the University of Warwick in England and something of an expert on the intersection of money and happiness, getting married adds a happiness factor that’s equivalent to having $100,000 added to your household income. This is not true of having children, Oswald says. His surveys have found that adding kids to your life (or not having them at all) didn’t seem to change people’s happiness one way or the other. Which is good. Kids are expensive, and since most rich people just send theirs away to boarding school anyway, you could argue that the best thing for your Live Cheap, Look Rich lifestyle is not to have the little monsters in the first place."
They make it sound a little callous, but I have to agree on the no-kids idea.

Rich guy Robert Durst acquited of murder charges.
" After the killing in late September 2001, Durst was a fugitive for six weeks until he was caught in Pennsylvania when he tried to shoplift a $5 sandwich even though he had $500 in his pocket."
I don't think it takes a degree in psychology to realize... this guy has more going on than murderous tendencies. He posed as a mute woman for some time? He lived in a low rent apartment? I would love to hear this guy in therapy (probably at the free mental health clinic).

I'm going to celebrate Discardia tonight. I'm getting rid of some clothes. Probably not the ones you think I should get rid of... These are even worse and you have never seen them or blocked the memory.
