As many of you know, Nick Nummerdor has started his own nonprofit organization along with a few other people. I'm helping consult for the Chicago Youth Skateboard Project and they need some assistance. We're looking for a lawyer and/or accountant to do some pro bono work. A lawyer for some advice about waivers and possible issues with mixing children with skateboards. An accountant to review the 1023 tax forms for the 501 (c) 3 status of CYSP. So, if you or someone you know is interested, please feel free to contact me or Nick Nummerdor:

Bubba/Brandon is in the group The Evidence. They are really good and you should see them. This is the group that opened for them, The Lumberkings, and they are hilarious as well. Here's their info:
The Lumberkings look to explore how man is affected by society and vice versa through a series of two-person improvised scenes that are far less pretentious than this description would have you believe.

Here's Bubba as Ed Harris at a cafeteria.
"Are You Ed Harris?" What a jerk...
There's nothing quite like a pervert going through the underwear at Gap...
So, here's the world's famous Leaning Tower of Niles, Illinois. Here's some information about it:
Leaning Tower of Niles, Illinois @ Roadside America
Fine Italian inspired architecture surrounded by the fine American urban planning of strip malls and car lots.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATIE, SME, & TENNESSEE! You will be a great off-Broadway show one day!
Here's B-day girl Katie
B-day girl SME
Finally, b-day boy Tennessee
Tennessee loves his new apartment. There's a yard to play in and kids love to play with him. There were about eight kids screaming "TENNESSEE! TENNESSEE!" during the night. Cliff and SME's place is really nice too.
A couple more of the neighborhood kids. It seems the neighbor kids love to party with us these days.
Mike, Frances, and Noah on the patio
Frances, Noah, Karli, and Katie lighting the cake. Where's the cupkarli's?
Hector (?), Cliff, and Megan
The cake was real good. It was marbled and huge.
Nick making sure Tennessee gets in on his b-day action. Also, who is that in the background? IT'S MALI!!! She came in and visited us from New York.
"Sausage is a religion in Chicago." -Judge from Top Chef: Chicago. Here's proof
HAPPY BRATDAY!!!
Admiral Karli Nelson on her latest CD release
Here's Admiral Nelson's rum. He looks like Conan O'Brien in weird pants with two capes. Also, is he standing on huge coconuts or is he really small? I love these kinds of logos
Noah, Amanda, and Hector
Bring the party to the livingroom
Megan and I decided to head over to the LP Zoo for the Green Apple Festival and found this. This is the 2nd Bears van I've found in a week. It may be my new summer hobby.
You know her by now.
Making newspaper boxes interesting.
Green Apple Festival at LP Zoo to promote Earth Day.
KYLE ORTON!!! He's one of my favorite football players. For you who don't know him, he's best known for being the 3rd string quarterback for the Chicago Bears in 2006 when the others were injured. He got them to the playoffs by no turning the ball over and letting the defense score touchdowns. For real...
Lady lion sunbathing
Lion looking at all the people he could eat at the Green Apple Festival
Mmmmm.... Delicious lion food....
I really liked these guys for some reason. They're Wild African Dogs and were pretty active. The hippie music was probably bothering them.
Another Wild African Dog
A Sunbear. I really like having bears as neighbors.
If I illegally owned any exotic animal, it'd be a bear and he'd ride a bicycle.
POLAR BEAR!
Here he is scratching or dry humping a log
The bear found something good to lick on the bottom of that rock...
A Black Rhino
A mobile juice stand!
Epic pic of Megan biking along Lakeshore Drive near Irving Park
Finally, here's the first thing the hippies at LP Zoo gave me. A postcard for the Rothbury Festival. I grew up near Rothbury and it's weird to think of anyone going there on purpose. It's the same weekend as Summer Celebration and the Muskegon Air Fair. I hope they are all a success. But, it seems with how many months there are that people in Muskegon say "This place is so boring" they could spread them out a little bit. But, what would Muskegon be if it weren't self-destructive?
That's all from the beautiful hamlet of Chicago. Until next time.
xoxo,
Mike
