We Live in a Big City

The two big running stories since the weekend...

_ Something fell off a plane during the airshow on Saturday and landed in the lake between Division and North Ave. Ominous, particularly for us, since that's the view from our front window (16 blocks away).

_ The "Cloud Gate" sculpture _ the giant metallic bean _ is less than a week away from a re-unveiling following many months of buff work... and criticism it was constructed incorrectly.

There have been stories on both topics on multiple channels since Saturday. I'm hoping they can make it through the whole week _ just to see if they can do it. A pending Air Force investigation has breathed new life into MissleRailGate (page 1 Sun-Times today).

LET'S GO FOR FOUR. FRIDAY OR BUST!
