Sorry for the long break, but it's been a busy four days! Chicago was absolutely alive with BluesFest, Printer's Row Book Fair, and a major game of Capture the Flag in Oak Park (Ignatian-run).
I will write later about all that, but for now, I will simply post the coolest animal scientific name ever:
Alligator mississippiensis, the American Alligator.
