Intriguing little tidbit from my 826CHI newsletter this morning.
THE BORING STORE'S BLAND OPENING
Friday, February 23rd
The time has come. The Boring Store - Chicago's only undercover secret agent supply store - will open on Friday, February 23rd. We have grappling hooks. We have dissolving paper. And we have heavy surveillance at the door to protect your privacy. Drop by, in a stealthily (sic) manner, any day of the week, from noon until 6 p.m. All proceeds from The Boring Store go directly toward supporting 826CHI's free writing programs.
Programs - 826chi.org - a Non-Profit Writing / Tutoring Center, Chicago, IL
