“This video is at Monroe and Michigan where the marches were coming together. Pretty glad I was at the right place and right time to catch all of it.
“I was taking photos at Cloud Gate today and happened to hear a big ruckus coming down Michigan Ave. It turned out to be one arm of the Take Back Chicago march (Homes). There had been police choppers over the city the entire day, so I knew something was up.”

5. From “Lie to Me,” the seventh episode of the second season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer:
Cordelia: I just don’t see why everyone’s always picking on Marie Antoinette. I can so relate to her. She worked really hard to look that good, and people just don’t appreciate that kind of effort. And I know the peasants were all depressed . . .
Xander: I think you mean oppressed.
Cordelia: Whatever. They were cranky. So they’re like, “Let’s lose some heads.” Uh! That’s fair. And Marie-Antoinette cared about them. She was gonna let them have cake!
