So while I'm waiting for yet another CI build to run, I'm making note of these:
- Who's dumber than the XPOTUS? His lawyers.
- The city of Chicago has released plans to build a tunnel connecting the existing Bloomingdale Trail with the other side of I-90/94 and the Union Pacific tracks, but they don't expect it to open for about 3 years.
- Developers turned a parking garage into apartments in my old neighborhood, hiding the remaining bits of the garage from the street. I approve!
- Because of Illinois and Chicago taxes, (legal) cannabis in Chicago costs more than just about everywhere else in the country.
Finally, WBEZ made me a shopping list of locally-produced hot sauces. First up: Cajun Queen—apparently available about a kilometer away.
