  6. Kassopedia: The cure for Verpes, Rahmifications and Karen Lewis Withdrawal Syndrome

    As I light my pipe, take up my quill pen and sheepskin and once again prepare to write another volume of The Kassopedia &mdash; the repository of the world's great knowledge &mdash; I'm reminded of a snarky reader.

  8. Vicious cycle awaits little bike people

    The Rahmfather probably won't be riding a Stingray bike with a banana seat, pulling back on his chrome ape hangers, popping wheelies down Dearborn Street on Friday with Cubs baseball cards in his spokes as all the little bike people of Chicago scream deliriously with joy.
