I think there are two independent bookstores in Kansas City, but one is specifically a children's bookstore. So there's one general purpose one. Unfortunately, it's a pretty long drive to get there.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
The junction is where the Kennedy and the Edens meet. The Hubbard Cave is downtown--it's the tunnel you go through on the Kennedy southbound on your way into the Loop before you meet up with the Dan Ryan and the Eisenhower
I still hear Hubbard Cave on the radio. Of course, I'm a bit miffed that they rarely give traffic for the tollways. Which is what I drive on everyday.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
There seem to be a bunch of indie bookstores around here, but it's a college town. Maybe they're used bookstores; I haven't been into all of them. My god, who have I become.

No, that song is awesome!

ita, it's supposed to be bullshit. By their very nature, self-evals are bullshit.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
The Edens time is usually Lake Cook to the junction; the Kennedy is usually O'Hare to the interchange (where all the highways meet downtown), so you're right, brenda, that Hubbard Cave isn't the end location in a traffic report, but they do tend to mention it when someone invariably breaks down in the middle of the Cave and slows traffic to a halt. The Eisenhower is Mannheim to the post office, and the Dan Ryan is I-80 to downtown.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Interesting the B&N is closing here, but the Borders is staying open. But the B&N hers is dark and has no depth

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You guys, I totally took off from work early for no reason. No reason other than I have no boss, and wasn't going to get any more work done! Woo hoooo. Now I have extra time to sit here on my ass and work on cleaning the DVR.
