How does Chicago's "No Parking if snow is over 2 inches" rule work out in practice? Are the blocks of cars parked on my street (Sheridan at 7600 N) all going to be towed overnight and tomorrow morning?

Using a no-frills but decent PC, what (cheapish) sound card and what software should I buy for my father so he can record his guitar playing and singing as well as do basic mixing and editing?

Our new, ten-month old adopted male (but fixed) cat does
this (knead, get down on his haunches, and hump). Unlike the previous poster, however, he does this to our heads whenever we lay down. Is there any way to get him to stop? It's not the best way to wake up.

What kind of spider is
here, hanging out above my bed? I would guesstimate that from leg to leg the guy you see there is probably 1.5"-2". Is it the somewhat hard to identify
brown recluse (who isn't even supposed to be native to Chicago)? Will I die? How best can I kill it from a distance?
I am staying awake anxiously awaiting your answers!

Have any Chicago mefites had experience with Hunter Properties, Acorn Management, Lake Front Management, Lee Street Apartment Rentals, or Water Tower Realty? Praise is as welcome as criticism.

What wedding songs (ceremony, not reception) would music lovers here suggest to be sung by a skilled, classically trained soprano accompanied by a not as skilled, works-for-a-small-church pianist?

In making a gallery page for a website, what is the easiest way to have a scrolling area for clickable thumbnails that bring up a larger image, as well as some information about the image, in a table cell above? Specifics, examples, many self links, and my (mangled) code so far available inside.

How any have mefites in christian-atheist relationships and marriages fared? What advice do you have? What do you think about
2 Corinthians 6:14-15?
I'm atheist and my fiancée is Christian. We both feel strongly about our beliefs, our love, and respect for one another.

I'm moving to Chicago with my fiancé in August. We're looking for a two bedroom that we won't regret. Oh, and we're poor as hell. Is it even possible to find a two bedroom for less than $1,000? Inside is a list of more particular criteria.

I'm looking to do an art project that involves photographing a bunch of lights, 25-50 lights, spread throughout a small area of a pine forest. What would be the best, really cheap, way to make these "independent lights".

Under what conditions are frozen lakes safe to be on? Is any noise coming from a lake bad or just earth shattering cracks nearby?
Sorry of this seems silly

My van's transmission is very sad. It's on the verge of being considered a junker car: should I repair it or buy another crappy car?

So I'm a fan of movies. A little over a year ago I watched the top 100 of
IMDB's top 250. I enjoyed almost all of them. I've since looked through
many other lists, but I can't decide if any of them are worth working through (although I have seriously considered the writer's guild's
top 100 screenplays).
Are there any other lists out there that any of you have enjoyed? Are there any I should particularly
avoid?
