To all the lovely people who ask us “YO VICE? WHERE IT AT?” and other, less intelligible questions, your beloved ADMIN of this here QUIMBLOG is here to inform you that we have the new issue of Vice Magazine available in our venerable “free shit” area, fresh off the dump truck. It looks like this is the short story issue, featuring folks like William T. Vollman, Mary Gaitskill, Tao Lin, Nick Tosches and others, so Terry Richardson wannabes may want to give this new issue a pass. With photos and illustrations by former(?) Chicagoan Vincent Dermody and Brian’s favorite assnozzle, Johnny Ryan, plus more usual Vice shit from “the ususal gang of idiots”.

An article in Friday’s Chicago Tribune calls Quimby’s one of of Chicago’s 10 best bookstores, but please folks, don’t hold it against us. Kidding. I kid! Between Greg Kot, Metromix and the Red Eye, the Chicago Tribune is a regular wild and crazy guy. Anyway, it’s a nice piece that focuses on independently-owned, neighborhood bookstores, such as Quimby’s, Women and Children First, Seminary Co-op and others. Link (bound to expire.)
In other news, New City’s biannual “Lit 50″ list of Chicago’s literary pimps and players puts Quimby’s very own Col. McCormick, Eric Kirsammer, at number 40. It’s a full two spot improvement from their 2005 list! Lookout, Oprah!
