In an effort to add some discipline to my easily distracted mind, I am creating this blog to practice writing and photography on a somewhat regular basis. The title comes from a story about my Irish Grandfather. When I was a baby anytime my mother would ask him if he wanted to hold me, he would say "Does he still shit in his pants?" It sounds like something I would say about a baby and it makes me laugh every time I think about it. BTW, YOU CAN CLICK ON ANY PICTURE TO SEE IT FULL SIZE.

August 28 Chicago's Two Seasons
There is an old joke here in Chitown about our seasons. Chicago has 2 seasons, winter and construction. Like most jokes, there is some truth to it. The toll road has been under construction for the better part of the past 5 years, now they decided to add another lane. And since Obama started handing out TARP money like Pacman Jones at a strip club, most of the local roads are also under construction. Today I got stuck on the northbound I-294 toll road between 159th St and 127th St, approximately 6 miles, for 75 minutes. Welcome to construction season and when it's over we get winter.
