Only anarchists are pretty...

Yes, it's true, we've decided to discontinue Boystowners after a 2+ year run. It got to the point where it was too broad (covering poltics, local stories, events, you name it) and too narrow (focusing mostly on Boystown and Chicago stories), and became too difficult to keep up (and those who were reading regularly know that I did my damnedest to keep it up, sometimes to the point of being the only poster for weeks on end). It was a good experience and I enjoyed it, and I don't rule out the idea of working on another group blog in the future (probably something lefty political or similar), but the time came to shut it down.

You all know, of course, that this hardly means my days of political ranting are over. I'll still go off here on all sorts of issues, of that you can be sure.

And hopefully someday I'll have a link to post to my archived articles, because there were a few of them I must say I quite liked.

In the meantime, adieu, Boystowners. It's been real.

Check out the newly-restyled Boystowners. The new design launched over the weekend, and we're quite pleased with it.
