Mundane and pointless but a GQ all the same - anyone know where I can get a reader in Oak Park, IL?  
The box near me house is gone after some construction work.

Try the public library. Or any place that advertises in the Reader.

For Past Tense: The Reader is the Chicago area free newspaper that carries the Straight Dope column.

I bet Book Table has them too.

My wife and I are going out for dinner in a bit (LaBella), then to the Lake Theater, and if I have a few minutes I’ll check.
