Brent Billock's Tumblr

I'm Brent. I do Internet marketing and run a stock picking community website. My job and heart are still in Chicago, but I'm telecommuting from Cincinnati. I do a little longform blogging at billock.net and I tweet as @BrentBillock.
I really like motorcycles, guitars, and good design.

Public Transit

In Chicago for work, and riding the bus.

The two ladies sitting next to me have never met, but one of them was reading the Film Festival schedule. So now they’ve been talking for 15 minutes about the films they’ve seen, the plot twists and character development, and the emotions they invoked.

I really hate living in the suburbs.

Happy St. Patty’s!
It’s a shame they can’t dye it blue the rest of the year.

After being born in Chicago and living there his whole life, Rahm Emanuel is ruled by an appellate court not to be a resident, because he rented out his house while off running Obama’s administration as Chief of Staff.

OK, I don’t usually tumbl so much profanity, but this is absolutely gold!

Wow, that was an ugly game last night. Better to win ugly than lose gracefully, I suppose.
But the Packers gave up 150 yards in penalties.
And Devin Hester ran back a punt return all the way.
And the Bears still eked out a win by only 3 points.
On paper, 3-0 is still a great way to start the season. Go Bears!

I love Buckingham Fountain. I used to walk many blocks out of my way to stare at it when I lived in Chicago.
