tommyrot, I think they're just being assholes.
Yeah, but they could at least be assholes in a way that
makes sense.
Is that too much to ask? Apparantly it is (for an asshole).
It's on the West side of the Metra bridge on Foster (eta: between Damen and Ashland), btw. They have another sign on the East side of the bridge. It's just a straightforward "buy our fur" type sign, and it appears to have been paint-bombed.
Exit 9 on Ave A has a ton of funny/kitchy/etc
Cool, maybe I can stop by this weekend. I'd rather do something funny than food-related.

Our liberal meda in action, watching out for the wimmins.
For reasons that don't matter at all at this point, we have a shitload of Barbies floating around my office. For no good reason, these Barbies irk me. So we're having a toy drive in the building, and I'm totally giving the Barbies away!! OK, not all of them, but the lame ones for sure.

It's around 4th Street. You live on the F, right? Pretty convenient, then.
I have a great and weird fondness for the Abbott & Costello
Babes in Toyland
which has so many great-to-me bits in it, including the world's smallest barrage-by-blimp, and of course, a disastrous mistake in the size of wooden soldiers, long before
Spinal Tap
was ordering a Stonehenge replica for their stage show.
Anyone know much about the very early history of the Bible? Is the stuff here pretty much accepted by Bible history scholars?
It doesn't sound that far out. Its commonly accepted that three of the gospels are based on one another and the fourth is not. I don't know if the assertion of contentiousness is widespread but I imagine the view exists in various forms.
And I can't speak off the top of my head, but different officials behaved and were regarded differently in different eras and by different people -- but I don't know how much of that is a "battleground". One guys battleground is another's healthy debate.

Yeah. My mom had enormous issues with the insurance company when she opted for tubal litigation. My brother was 9 and I was 13, and she was sure she didn't want any more children at that point. But she was 30, and got the same bullshit from insurance. Fortunately, my mom's doctor fought with them on it, but it seemed a demeaning process.
tommyrot, the only thing I can come close to coming up with is that a lot of fake fur is synthetic and therefore petroleum products. I don't know. I'm grasping here.
You know, if I saw my doctor's name on that article, I'd be finding a new doctor.
