St. Pat's Queen

This news article is just too funny. The national color of Ireland is Kelly Green. Kelly Green is also the name of the 2006 Chicago St. Patrick's Day Queen. Kelly won over 100 other contestants. While the name is very appropriate, the contestants are only introduced by first name in order to prevent possible bias. A Queen only has to be partially Irish, a queen in the past actually had an Italian last name.

There was a pretty good coyote picture in the Sun-Times recently. Mainly because there have been many area coyote sightings and a toy poodle attacked in Oak Park recently. A recent study said that Chicago has the largest urban coyote population in the nation with about 2000 living in the Chicagoland area.
