Just a few of the many credentials I collected in 2010, but they're also some of my favorites.
Today I’m using bullet points as the format du jour in honor of a my first paintball experience this past weekend. Despite several welts of varied grossness (photos available if you ask nicely via Twitter or Facebook), it was great time! Chicago was the location, and a friend’s impending nuptials were the reason for celebration. One recommendation for everyone: Habana Libre at Chicago Ave. and Noble (near Ashland). Order anything on the menu, just make sure you start with a couple of their spinach or guava and cheese empanadas.
That’s more meta than you probably wanted, so let’s get back to business. You know, this job I’m seeking with the Detroit Red Wings.

- Due to my unfamiliarity with the policies of the Red Wings organization, I’ve been trying to figure out whether or not they grant credentials to bloggers who write exclusively (or almost exclusively) about the team. If you’re a Red Wings blogger and know the answer to this question, please let me know. I didn’t go as far as contacting the organization (since I’m applying for a job, I don’t want to stick my nose somewhere it doesn’t belong), but I did try to find some answers on the Red Wings official website. Unfortunately, when I clicked links for both a “Frequently Asked Questions” section and a “Public Relations” section, I was taken to the front page of the NHL’s website. That was a little surprising… and disappointing.
