As you may have heard, we bought a bank over the weekend. It's meant that I've spent an inordinate amount of time stuck in traffic on I-294 heading north of O'Hare to work at the new bank. Yippee. Have a couple of thoughts:

A) The epic inefficiency of secret police. Basically, if the police unit is a secret, how does anybody know to call them? Also, how do they find out about whatever it is they work on?

B) An interesting post on matters maritime: Why Should Captains Go Down With Their Ships?

C) This article bills itself as the real story behind the demise of the streetcar in America. General Motors contributed to it, but mostly it wasn't GM's fault.
