Kobe Bryant (photo. Chris Sembrot) One half of the 2008 NBA Finals picture is set: the Lakers are the Western Conference champs after knocking off the Spurs in last night’s Game 5. Bottom line, the Lakers won because they had Kobe Bryant. Any close-out game or elimination game will always come…

Obama and Status Quo Politics
Obama has a quote placed prominently on his site about the change he plans to bring. “I’m asking you to believe. Not just in my ability to bring about real change to Washington… I’m asking you to believe in yours.” He talks about change, but has he changed from the good old days in…

Stallzmoni
Hands down, the funniest person I've ever met is Scott Stallman. He is legendary. Sadly, he and his fiance Erin moved to Chicago a year or so ago; I am still mourning their departure. He writes fake, rambling, absurd letters to people (like government officials). It took me about a year of being…

Obama Had a Clear Strategy to Defeat Hillary
Critics have said Obama is not as tough as his opponents. Don’t buy that. Obama came up in the tough Chicago electoral climate and played the rules card. Obama made a habit of challenging voter petitions. The premise was if you can’t run a good petition campaign you probably could not be a…

Chicago blues scene struggles despite commercial success of Blues Festival
CHICAGO—As the 25th annual Chicago Blues Festival rolls around next week, it is time for a pulse check on the shuffling, rickety old body of the Chicago blues scene. Hundreds of thousands of Chicagoans and visitors will flood Grant Park, at Columbus and Jackson, June 5-8, to hear the likes of…

The irony is
practically no one in Chicago, not the Mayor, not City Council, cares or listens to what happens on the South Side, where there are few if any jobs and services, no groceries, no shopping malls, no corporate parks, there is a dearth of everything, including hope and justice. But no dearth of…

The Weekend of May 30th
The weekend is here and so is the month of June. I cannot believe that June is here, people. That means the year is already almost half over. How is that even possible? We have yet to have an actual spring yet here in Chicago. Still, the weather is supposed to be pretty nice here in Chicago this…

Cubs explode in the 8th inning to beat the Rockies 8-4
The Chicago Cubs score two runs in the seventh inning and then three more in the eighth inning as they came from behind to beat the Colorado Rockies 8-4. That is a great way to start a four game series against the Rockies! Good teams find ways to win and that is just what the Cubs did on…

I’m reading Chris Connelly’s new book Concrete, Bulletproof, Invisible and Fried: My Life as a Revolting Cock. (If you know who Chris Connelly is that really long title makes sense.) The book is great but it’s taking me a while to read. He writes a lot about the development and production…

Music Showcase. Good idea?
I do want to start playing with other musicians more often. I’m building a repertoire of songs. I wonder if I could put together the kind of open mic I want, with emphasis on soul/funk/r&b and with live bands. It would help me meet other musicians with similar tastes in music and build a…

Strip Clubs in Chicago and Beyond
You know strip clubs aren’t really what they used to be. In Chicago, the clubs can be a lot of fun but the city sure has made it difficult for a guy to have a cigar and have a drink. Where I’m from, you can’t buy alcohol and see nude dancers at the same time. Oh sure, you can bring…

If the Olympics mean high-speed rail in Chicago, count me in
I’m still torn on Chicago’s 2016 Olympics bid. On one hand, it would bring a once-in-a-lifetime experience to my front door. On the other, it would be an absolute clusterfuck of a circus of a freakshow. Part of the reason I live in Chicago is because it’s all the fun of a big city without…
