It’s February 29th. You only get a chance like this once every 4 years. What are you going to do with your leap day?
McDonald’s is giving a free McSkillet Burrito with purchase of a medium or large drink during breakfast hours. Nice, but at 610 calories and 36 grams of fat I can’t afford it. Perhaps at my age if it had 36 grams of fiber instead of fat…
I’ve long been a fan of superheros … Superman, Batman, Spiderman, etc. The recent Spiderman and Batman movies have been quite good. So, I’m excited about the upcoming Ironman movie (although, was Ironman technically a superhero since he didn’t really have super powers?), opening May 2. Check out the trailer. Ok, that was 2 minutes of your extra 24 hours … what’s next?
Perhaps some more later …
For the past five years, the Zarrillo family of Carpentersville has transformed their very normal-looking home in the Kimball Farm subdivision into a haunted house that they open to the public for six nights during Halloween.
This is going to be the final year of their haunted house.
Admission into the house is free with a nonperishable donation that the Zarrillo’s deliver to the F.I.S.H. Food Pantry in Carpentersville.
The Zarrillos’ Haunted House is at 5726 Breezeland Road in the Kimball Farm subdivision next to Liberty Elementary School. It will be open today through Sunday and Oct. 26, 27, and 28. Hours are 6 to 9 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 6 to 8 p.m. Sundays.
The Haunted House will not be open on Oct. 31 because the cast wants to go trick-or-treating.

Congratulations to the Chicago Cubs who just clinched the NL Central Division to go to the playoffs for the first time since 2003.
How far will they get?
The Cubs won their game today and awaited the outcome of the Padres-Brewers game, which just completed minutes ago. The Brewers lost 6 to 3.
