Open Letter
Dear Macy's:
As an atheist, I see no reason to put up with ubiquitous Christianity all year long and then skip the only good part, Christmas. Accordingly, my children have been taught, like all good Chicagoans, that the real Santa sees kids at the State Street Field's. Only such inflexible dogma could get my husband and I to blow about fifty bucks each year on a sorry Walnut Room breakfast before visiting Santa.Posted on February 27, 2007

"Traffic," Mr. Cool sighed just as I wondered if it was getting hot in there or if it was just me and my car sickness.Posted on February 17, 2007

I've never known if van cabs were strictly for airport use or large parties; I confess, in my embarrassed ignorance, I've stood on cold corners and let van cabs go by with nary a wave. Not this time. Yet, the mystery continues.Posted on February 17, 2007
