More Proof Our Planet Wants Us Dead.
Aug 22nd
As if threatening to turn California into the next Atlantis isn’t enough, this fabulous planet we live on is getting tired of us and it’s apparently hitting us where it know’s it’ll get our attention. The neighborhood Sonic Drive-In.

The Cost of Good Coverage: Death
Aug 20th
What would you do for perfect cell phone reception where you live? Some of us are willing to go to any length to pull a couple extra bars from the air. At one New York City building, the landlord is putting his resident’s lives at risk, just to provide them with enough signal strength to download the latest fart app.

CTIA Sues San Francisco Over Cell Phone Radiation Law
Jul 24th
A recently-signed law in San Francisco requiring cell phone manufacturers to place radiation level labels on their products may not stick after all. If the Cellular Telephone Industries Association (CTIA) has their way, a court room battle may be in the works.
The CTIA just filed a complaint in federal district court, claiming the new law supersedes the FCC’s authority to regulate radio emissions and misleads consumers into believing some phones are safer than others. True, but maybe San Franciscans want to know exactly HOW much radiation they’re pumping into their brains. Personally, I’m just interesting in my call not getting dropped and my messages all arriving safe and sound in my inbox.
Read the full complaint here.

Chicago Police Think You’re a Gang Member
Jul 23rd
Ok, so the headline isn’t exactly true, but it got your attention, right? Right.
If you’re like me, which you probably are if you’re reading this blog, you love up-and-coming, hip artists. My personal favorite up-and-comer (personal friend and Chicago native) is Kid Sister (pictured above). Her fresh, fun lyrics about real life and fierce nails, driving beats and overall great look never get old.
She held a free concert in Chicago’s Prtizker Pavilion in Millennium Park last Monday that was fierce, as always. Concert goers, however, were greeted with a little more security than they had expected. Both Chicago Police and Millennium Park security were noticeably present and it surprised many concertgoers.
