Cubs tied for 1st
Cubs tied for first.
Who'da thunk it ?
No need to watch it on the teli - we will live blog from the game.
This is pretty exciting. We won these at auction at a fundraiser for Edison School. 4 Dugout seats. I mean... really.

Rachel:
Your tickets for Thursday's game will be at XXX XXXX XX. Mark told me to leave them under the name XXXX XXXXX. Is this correct? Window XXXX is located at the corner of Clark and Addison.
As you know, Thursday, August 2 is Build A Bear Day at Wrigley Field. The promotion is for the first 6000 children, 14 and under. People will be lined up well before the gates open to ensure that they get the bear. You DO NOT need to do the same. If, after you pick up your tickets, you are unable to get a bear at the gate, please contact me on Monday, August 6, and I will mail them out to you.
In addition to this, we will be providing you with a photo of the Wrigley Field Marquee with the game date. Please tell me what you would like put up there. i.e. The Johnson Family, or John Doe and Mary Sue. I will be sending the photo out sometime next week. Normally, I like to do it ahead of time, but the printer that prints our 8 x 10 photo has been in need of repair.
Lastly, please pay attention to the Message Board under the center field Score Board during the middle of the 5th inning. We will put a CUBS WELCOME message to your group. Once again, what would you like put up there?
If you could, please reply as soon as possible with what you would like put on the Marquee Photo and Scoreboard Message.

The Seventh book
We spent Friday night at the B&N at Old Orchard shopping center. They closed the store to prevent fire safety violations to any more people entering at about 11PM. WE were all ready in there, and we got our copy. I just wanted the kids to participate in the social phenomenon of a book, closing a bookstore.
Leah finished it off at about 2PM Saturday. I'm about half through at this point. One interesting aspect is the "green" publishing put into effect around the Harry potter series.
"Production of the book spurred the development of 32 new ecological papers, six for Potter exclusively, and prompted 300 publishers to adopt new environmental policies, according to Markets Initiative, a Vancouver-based environmental group.
Publishers in 16 countries -- including the U.S., U.K., and Canada -- are printing the book on "Ancient Forest Friendly or eco-friendly papers," whereas only one did so back in 2003.
Publishing the English-language editions of the latest book alone on eco-friendlier paper have resulted in a savings of 197,685 trees -- an area about 2.5 times the size of Central Park -- and reduced greenhouse-gas emissions by 7.9 million kilograms, Markets Initiative reports."
