Wide-Eyed Travel: The Death-Defying Chicago Air and Water Show
July 22, 2008 at 10:05 AM | 0 Comments
It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's many planes over Lake Michigan in this year's Chicago Air and Water Show, August 15-17. And the annual spectacle will have a special star, one who must not be as afraid of heights as he was of the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man.
That's right, Bill Murray will make a special jump on Friday, the first day of the festival, with the Golden Knights parachute team. (They've handled George H.W. Bush, so maybe they're in the geriatric-jump business?)
Free boat-jumping exhibitions and the ever-present Blue Angels will swoop and dive for the thousands of spectators along the lake, and Gary Sinise's band is playing. Don't forget the fireworks all three nights!

Missed Connections: Cruising in Stockholm
August 24, 2007 at 11:20 AM | 2 Comments
Yesterday, Bill Murray was pulled over for allegedly driving a golf cart under the influence in Sweden's biggest city. Maybe he just decided it was "Suntory time," but we'd like to think he was chasing the woman of his dreams--and the cart was just the first thing at hand.
We don't endorse carting while intoxicated, but maybe you can lose your head when you meet that special someone at these Stockholm singles magnets:
The Bar at the Hotel Rival -- This boutique hotel hosts a glam bar where visitors and locals alike sip complex cocktails. Mariatorget 3
Mosebacke -- A classic outdoor jazz venue, kicking back here could net you some company, if you know your Miles Davis from your Louis Armstrong. Mosebacketorg 3
sturecompagniet -- This huge bar contains several different themed rooms, whether you'd like to meet a suited executive or a nightclub-bound student. Stureplan 2
