Every time I'm in Schaumburg I remind myself that it's ok to be bored. Just go the mall. Shop at Ikea. Shopping is simple, it's easy, mostly doesn't end poorly.

I might be tempted to perform elaborate stunts, but at what cost?

We should remember that we're human during these strange economic times.



I don't think it's specific to Schaumburg. You wouldn't caught me dead 4 meters above ground in mobile temporary contraption anywhere. However you have very decent chance to find me on the couch in the closest Ikea. Not even buying. Just enjoying being alive.


Even in this age of LED-everything their lighting section is still stellar

You love to see it


What does shopping offer to people who want to remember they're human? Go for a hike.


Also good advice.


gravity is not related to the macroeconomic environment


And gravitas is not related to gravity.

You can make an impact without having to make an impact.


no, but a chain's structural integrity is. you know, the lowest bidder and all that stuff
