Summer finally has come to Chicago! Deliciously hot, muggy, and rainy. Sat on the front screened porch and read the newspaper and my current book, a novel by the Swedish author, Henning Mankell, while waiting for the storm to blow in. Great summer smells. Heaven.

I'm iffy about Squid and the Whale. So painful. Answer a stupid question, here: what is the viewer supposed to take away from that movie?All I could think of was how easy it is to mess up your kids. Re: another dysfunctional family in a movie, Little Miss Sunshine..Hilarious and ultimately touching I thought. Maybe i'm just a weenie.
