Guess early and often

Eric Zorn wants to know: Are you a Real Chicagoan? (Don't worry if you don't score as well as you hoped. Zorn's lived here 24 years and still doesn't know all the answers.)

Help computer!

If you haven't already seen the GI Joe PSA's by Eric Fensler, run, dash, or sprint over there and check them out. There are new ones! And doesn't he look charming in his Cubs uniform? "Give him the stick, don't give him the stick!"

Lincoln Park Rapist

Ladies, make sure your doors and windows are locked at night: Police are warning of a serial rapist in the Lincoln Park neighborhood. This is apparently the second Lincoln Park rapist to be identified -- each has a different M.O. The newly identified attacker has also been linked to rapes in Lisle and Kenosha.

The SNL machine's gears turn...

...and once again, another Second City performer is plucked from a promising career on stage to move to New York and work on "Saturday Night Live" as a writer and, eventually, performer. This time, it's 26-year-old Liz Cackowski, who debuted on the Second City mainstage only last December. Thursday night is Liz's last appearance on the stage, in Second City's revue "Doors Open on the Right;" stop by and wish her well.
