 Metromix. Movie review: 'Garfield'   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
Although "Garfield" survives as the most widely syndicated comic strip in the world (in 2,570 newspapers) and has been inducted into the Licensing Hall of Fame, it hasn't produced a genuine giggle in a decade or more.
Garfield looks good in close-ups, given the software that now manages hair movement, but too often Garfield doesn't seem to have much weight on screen or impact on his surroundings, especially when he's interacting with his flesh-and-blood (or fur-and-blood) co-stars.
In light of Garfield's curmudgeonly 26 years of service--that's more than 100 in cat years--it might be time to for him to retire with some nice family on a farm in the country.

 Garfield Park Conservatory Alliance
The dramatic new garden now taking shape next to Garfield Park Conservatory is 12 acres of undulating, free flowing plant material that challenges prevailing notions of what a major public garden is supposed to be.
Rather than a walled, single-gated horticultural museum separate from the neighborhood, the City Garden is a burst of botanical splendor in an open lacework pattern of gardens, boulevards, and green spaces that softly weave together the fabric of the community.
Standing atop the ridge, a stroller is treated to a spectacular view of the Conservatory and the Chicago skyline.

 Cook County Illinois Trails
Geologists are of the opinion that, previous to the glacial epoch, a large portion of the county lay under the waters of Lake Michigan, which was connected with the Mississippi by the Des Plaines River.
This theory is borne out by the finding of stratified beds of coal and gravel in the eastern and southern portions of the county, either under lying the prairies or assuming the form of ridges.
Drainage is afforded by the Des Plaines, Chicago and Calumet Rivers, which is now being improved by the construction of the Drainage Canal.

I've always had a soft spot for Garfield, and this may account, at least in part, for the fact that I enjoyed a lot of this movie.
When the humans have the sense to keep quiet, and the animals are doing their shtick, there's great fun to be had.
