Halloween III: Silver Shamrock Shake

My Fiero caught fire... truck

People will talk about aesthetic trends all day, but an ad for the iPod shuffle on a 1980s train, amid a backdrop of pending global recession, is the realest evidence I've seen of a 2000s revival

Everything everywhere being a prolonged existential crisis or combination dumpster/tire fire is fucking exhausting.

Thanks to Chicago journalist AJ LaTrace for the heads-up. 1 They’re keeping the Thompson Center name. 2 They’ve launched a new website. 3 They’re still restricting what we can see to the same four renderings they released over a year ago www.thompsoncenterchi.com

Wow, well, here's some new Thompson Center news... It appears that Google has decided to keep the Thompson Center name and has launched a new website with some more details and images of the building. thompsoncenterchi.com

On Monday, I suddenly recognized the subject of a photo in a 1967 newspaper. A huge metal sign, promising that “the world’s largest food center” would open the following year, was familiar to me. Now decrepit, it sits among trees and marshy plants next a freeway access road near my home. Thread:

AB InBev took over the Pabst Brewing contract. Production of their boomer brews has been shifting to St. Louis for a while, with City Brewery in LaCrosse taking on Old Style and a few others. Now it appears ABI is culling the portfolio -- in addition to Stag kegs I've heard bad rumors about Schlitz.
