CHANGES!

Decided to update the left side of the blog today.

Illinigirl has gone on a hiatus to concentrate on her grad studies on top of her full-time job, new home, and other things. As a former grad student I can certainly empathize and hope that she returns soon filled with some of that collegiate liberal zeal!

I also added Mark Tupper from the Decatur Herald and Review. He provides an interesting look at sports and a good perspective on my Illini!
