Death to the Bee-Gee's!!

I have very much enjoyed reading about the 30th anniversary of Disco Demolition Night. For those who don't know, 30 years ago the Chicago White Sox had a legendary promotion event where they invited music fans who hated disco to bring their disco albums and they would blow them up in centerfield before the game. On paper, the idea seemed really good. Unfortunately, for Comiskey Park and the White Sox, it backfired huge. After the explosion in centerfield blowing up the albums, thousands of fans jumped onto the field and an enormous riot broke up. Dozens of people were arrested, Comiskey was trashed. Despite the pleading of police, owner Bill Veeck, and White Sox broadcaster Harry Carey trying to get everyone to get back to their seats, at the end of the day, the Chi Sox had to forfeit the game and go down in history as creating the worst, but most infamous promotional effort in the history of organized sports.

1. If true love can't last, like the kind between Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo, then is there hope for any of us?

2. I received a tough break on the teaching front. When I called the Chicago Public School district about how I become a substitute teacher. I was informed that they are not hiring any more subs this year. I can now look at private schools or out of the Chicago school district. Another thing that has caught my eye is being a teacher's aide. I don't know how one becomes a TA though...

3. Yesterday, Allie, and two of her friends and I went to the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art. Wow! This is not like most art museums. It had awesome, cool, and trippy exhibits. For instance, it had one hallway where the light is a certain color so everything and everyone appears in black and white. They had amazing kaleidoscope exhibits and other cool things. It is free on Tuesdays. I am excited to see more of Chicago's great museum scene.

4. Currently listening to "Largo al factotum" by Rossini.
