    Q: My father is a native Chicagoan. Someone once asked me where, exactly, he grew up. I asked Dad and he replied, "Tell them I grew up on the corner of Kostner and Van Buren...and then watch them recoil in horror."

  4. A first mentor, seriously

    Sometimes, if you're lucky, you get your mentors early. Bernard "Bernie" Sahlins was my first.

On Saturday he is to deliver the commencement address for the DePaul University School of Music which is awarding him an honorary doctorate.

  11. How can AC affect mpg?

    <strong>Q: My friend and I have this bet regarding the impact of air conditioner use on fuel consumption.
