My first guest blogger is Doug, who took his baby for her first trip to the Art Institute, and "she's glad to be born in the year of the second Cubs/White Sox World Series." Also, "She's doing everything she can to overturn the Bush coup."

UPDATE: Other than Doug, the rods up these peoples' butts have rods up their butts. Things like this would never happen in L.A. First of all, they'd know what a blog is. Second, they'd actually come over and guest blog.

I'm going to make a quick trip to Mother Hubbard's at 5 W. Hubbard St., then I'm out of here.

UPDATE 2: I'm in Indiana, see the next entry.
