I don’t know about you, but I trust Patrick Chan.

WBEZ 20: Steve Edwards jumps in the lake for us
This is another video in a series of public radio commercials. It features Kate and WBEZ host Steve Edwards. He’s funny.
Memo to Runners:
I don’t care.
Let me be more specific. I am talking directly to my co-workers. Hey – I’m all excited for you. I think it’s wonderful that you have taken it upon yourselves to run mass distances and try to beat imaginary times. I have respect for people that train for hours [...]
The “Economy” is Getting a Bad Rap
At what point do we stop blaming the “Economy” for shitty places closing? If Ed Debevic’s were to close tomorrow, or, in reality, Mr. Beef on Orleans, it is now being considered a casualty of these “tough times” and not one of poor service, shitty food or bad management.

Todd Voorhies would be jealous. Mukesh Ambani, one of the richest men in the world, has just completed the world’s first billion dollar home in India. This ridiculously absurd skyscraper has in-house car maintenance, 600 full-time staff, and a helipad. Now, this guy’s worth about 70 billion. He wants to build [...]

When he comes knocking, he introduces himself as “The City of Chicago.” Please let him in. He will sit down with your boss, and ask him some friendly questions. He will ask him what your company does. DO NOT use big words like, “Interactive Agency” [...]
Rent Our Office/Rehearsal Space, Loser!
We are trying to wife-beater approach to getting you to rent our office space. If we tell you that you suck, maybe you’ll do what we say? Is that how it works. Awful Schadenfreude, awful. We have an awesome rehearsal space in Ravenswood and we love it so much that we want to [...]
