Hey ya'll. Sorry about the lack of links (there aren't going to be any today either), but I am a busy-ass person, so some things fall by the wayside. I'll try to pick it back up in the future (hell, if a get drunk and inspired tonight, I may come back and do it). But that is beside the point. Kentucky went AWESOME, for those of you who are curious. The dude I tazed (recreationally, of course) last year was there, we hung out and drank some beer (RealTree camoed Busch, to be exact) while his buddies started their camp fire with road flairs. I love Kentucky. But this is also beside the point. ART, that's the point, right? It's still Chicago Artist Month, for whatever that's worth (not a lot in my book, just seems like a excuse to trot out lame dog and pony shows without a lot of actual benefit to the art community, but why do I got to be a hater?), so there is still a glut of stuff going on. Here's your list, my friends. If you see me out this weekend and I yell something obscene at you, don't worry, it's just Kentucky wearing off. Did I mention I love Kentucky?

Hey there all ya'll out in TV land. Sorry I haven't said much to ya in a while, I've been busy. So, supposedly it's "Chicago Artist Month." Now in a city that prides itself on the sheer number of "festivals" it can cram into a year (no matter how mind-numbingly trite), this kind of feels like National Chili Month, or National Ergonomics Month (which, I'll have you know, October is as well). But whatever, don't look a cheesy gift festival in the mouth, right? There is a lot of art going on. Quite a line up for the weekend. Check out Packer Schopf on Sunday if you want to see some staples of the Chi Art community trotting out there wares (I mean this is the best way possible). Unfortunately (well, ok, fortunately, I'm really excited), I am making my annual pilgrimage to the Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot this weekend, so I won't be around for the fun. Drink a plastic cup of cheap wine for me, and remember kids, DON'T SPILL BOOZE ON THE ART!
