A Fortune In Feelings


A quick vacation stop in Chicago yielded only one karaoke jaunt, but it was a doozy: Carol's is a five-star dive bar, the kind of place where they order you another pitcher when you're only at the half-way point, and where at least a few patrons look as though they lit their first cigarettes off the flame-licks of the Great Chicago Fire. Foreigner's "Cold As Ice" was boldy re-interepted as a two-person state-of-the-relationship summit, while one renowned mystery scribe hit new lows (in a good way) with her vocal take on Cameo's "Word Up."
