Last week, Too Shy to Stop writer Ariela Rose got to meet Danny Bonaduce at Philadelphia’s Restaurant Week.  You will be able to read about the full experience on Monday.  Look how happy they are to see each other!

We welcomed new columnist Brian Triplett; he will be writing a weekly column called “Why We Want Change.”  Every week, he will profile someone asking for change on the streets of Chicago.  Here’s an excerpt from Friday’s installment:

Most of what he told me was neither shocking nor fathomable. He didn’t seem fake but, at the same time, he didn’t seem real. Yes, of course people sleep under bridges. I know that. But my dinner guest didn’t really have a sleeping bag prepared for slumber beneath Wacker Drive on this negative-degree night, right?

Anthony’s friends had gotten an apartment, which is why he had recently showered and shaved. He even had the latest NBA insight. “Shaq can’t run up and down the court anymore like you and me,” he commented. I couldn’t help but picture the image of us moving at a snail’s pace down the street due to his mysterious limp.

Are you unsure about Valentine’s Day? Grab your virtual pet, sit down at your computer, and read Angie’s pieces about SAD, which will actually make you happy.
