OK... sunset.. creating long shadows over my front lawn...
Does NOT make the situation more... ummm... "palatable"
As my memory seems to have been going haywire over the past months, it's nice to find things that jog the memory.
I was reading this post I wrote back toward the end of 2005 that referenced a list (and VOLUMINOUS comments) at Eric Zorn's blog at the Tribune of stores, shops, buildings, institutions that have left the Chicago landscape. (I think this was in reaction to MARSHAL FIELD'S leaving the landscape, a move that I STILL think is WRONG... but... I digress...)
I was SHOCKED to find out that people are STILL commenting on that blog entry for things that they remember that are no longer around...
But what a GREAT way to reminisce about ... "the old days"...
... and, are you old if you talk about "the old days"?
