Looptopia....kinda lame.

So I checked out Looptopia last friday. The concept seemed cool, and I was pretty excited about it. So I got downtown around midnightish, and there was nothing really going on. Except a bunch of drunk college kids being fairly entertaining at millennium park. There may have been stuff going on, but the organization was such that I had no idea what it was. So, not too impressed. Got a cool picture of the bean out of it anyway...

Busy Day

It was a good day today. I went to the art institute this morning to see a new exhibit , The Earth As It Was. They had a lot of really good prints including some by Ansel Adams and William Clift.

After, I got some lunch at Melrose Diner and discovered in The Reader that there was a Sci-Fi film fest going on at The Music Box. Hopped over there, and saw three really good films, including "The Day the Earth Stood Still". I had never seen it before and really enjoyed it. One of the stars of the movie, Patricia Neal, was there. She was super funny in an old hollywood film star kinda way.

Anyway, the last two photos are from the music box, and the others are from around the town.
