The Bluths Are Back! Maybe.
I know they’ve been playing with our emotions for the last five years, but word has it Mitch Hurwitz is writing the script for the Arrested Development movie. Yes! Please let this be true. Please let this mean that Michael Cera has realized that his shelf life as the nerdy poster boy is quickly waning and is on board.

Hurwitz, if you are reading, can you please bring back Scott Baio as Bob Loblaw, only because that is my favorite character name ever. More.
That's Hot
A Hoosier teenager is teasing all the freezing Chicagoans with his “death ray.”
Eric Jacqmain took a satellite dish, covered it 5,800 mirror tiles and created something that he says is as hot as 5,000 suns.
He has a video of his death ray’s victims – 2X4s, dirt, paint lids. Sounds like this kid is just a really extreme pyromaniac.
As much as I want Jacqmain to come to Chicago and melt all this snow that I sense will be here until May, the ray is no more. It was destroyed in a garage fire. More.
Quick story! When I was nine I used my very thick glasses as a magnifying glass to light a piece of paper on fire. Naturally, I wanted to see how hot it was so I tested it on my hand. Ask to see the scar on my knuckle sometime. Yeah.
Egypt Update
A reporter for the state-run newspaper was shot and killed today. Also, Al Jazeera’s Cairo office was stormed and set fire, continuing the current regime’s attempt to stifle news coming out of the troubled country. More.
If You Dig It, It's Yours
Parking sucks in Chicago. It really sucks when it snows, so when people clear out a spot they own it. And they guard it with trash cans and lawn chairs and grocery carts and maybe even their wives’ bloomers. Who knows? Anyway, it makes for interesting street scenery. The city is cool with it. More.

Despite the horrendous commute on public transit the last few days, I am glad I don’t own a car in this city.
Super Bowl Stuff
The Super Bowl is this weekend. I’ve been pretty split about who I want to win. (And by split, I mean apathetic.) The Green Bay Packers or the Pittsburgh Steelers? It was a tough call until Lil' Wayne (if you are old enough to be my parent, don’t click that. For real.) got involved. Go Packers! More. Now to perfect my dougie to that song.

Also: At least it is ice outside and not that behemoth screen inside. Don’t you dare call it a jumbotron, either.
