Gently falling flakes
Icicles form in my hair

“stranded on LSD”
this is probably the most iconic picture from the storm that just blasted our wonderful midwestern metropolis. it’s so perfect a shot that it almost seems staged.

This was the craizest picture I saw come out of the storm.

Chicago snow? Ain’t no stoppin’ us!
One of the Chair-Free Zone signs posted over the weekend.
What kind of reactions has Chair Free Chicago received?
The initial reaction has been positive, with anecdotal responses ranging from
“That’s a great idea” to “The aldermen’s offices should carry these.” Only a couple people have ordered signs so far, but signs can also be printed for free on the website, so there’s no way of knowing how many signs are in use already.Last year, city officials were more vocal about eliminating “dibs.” Have you spoken with any city officials about this project?
If there’s one thing we’ve learned from city officials, it’s that they really love surprises. Can’t get enough of them, really. So we didn’t speak to them beforehand. And really, it’s not about us making a statement - it’s about giving people a forum and a system to make their own statement.
People can use the site’s signs or fliers to communicate with neighbors
(here). Or use the website’s form to contact their alderman directly (here).(submitted by fitbomb)
Down with dibs!
despite winter being cold and bleak… these beautiful scenes make it worth while to endure
