We've had a few cream puffs this week at State Fair, but that hasn't diminished our desire to tell you about cool stuff that caught our eye. We start with some good seats at the ol' ballpark and follow up with notes about a Michael Jackson book, a decadent East Side dish, a fun backyard toy, a great loaf of local bread and a cool place to find cheap (and sometimes reliable) merchandise.

Wonder salutes Jackson at Amphitheater gig
It was no surprise that four days after the world learned of the death of Michael Jackson, that news was fresh in the mind of Stevie Wonder, who headlined the Marcus Amphitheater on the first Sunday of Summerfest 2009.

The King Of Dents
Tuesday July 7th, 2009 - Lake Villa, IL   It’s a good thing I don’t own a handgun or I would have pulled an Elvis and blasted out my TV screen during coverage of the Michael Jackson funeral today. Enough already. He was a fantastic entertainer. Got it. I was a fan. My heart ...

Universal Access Has Ruined the Internet
I've been "online" since 1993, when 9,600bps was fast and a 17" CRT was considered the big time.  The idea of a text-driven BBS being hip was vanquisted forever with the advent of Mosaic, the first real web browser.  It changed the business world as much as any invention ...
