Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Oh, and some Universal Studios film is shooting in the North Loop. I'm not sure what movie it is, but they had a rainmaker and a van all decked out with cameras, platforms, and a tow rig.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Wasn't this some movie about a bat-guy?

I think that they've started filming The Time Traveler's Wife here, as well.

It could be Batman. Roommate has a gig as an extra coming up next weekend.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Batman is Warner.

Art Crawl!!!

They must be filming three movies in Chicago -- apparently, Morgan Freeman is in the Batman movie and another one that isn't the Time Traveler's Wife.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Kristin and Trudy, you are both fired.

And, for the record, we caught the bucket of water on fire too. Apparently Plei, Jilli and I are the Flammable Trinity.

So... by "fired" you mean something involving actual fire ?

How do you set water on fire?

That is talent.

I keep seeing crane-mounted cameras and scissor lifts all over downtown. Haven't bumped into anyone famous at Starbucks, although that's just as well, because this week I'd probably say, "That'll give you bees."
