Dave Eggers and the *826 organization, who run a pirate supply shop in San Francisco and a superhero supply shop in NYC (I’ve only been to the former), are now opening a Chicago location: The Boring Store. The Boring Store is a purveyor of “openings, aperatures, punctures, perforations, pits, cavities, ditches, craters, crevices and just plan hollows.” It is not a secret agent supply store. (via kottke)
