The blog name is also intended as a good-humored gesture of admiration for distinguished Chicago boys including those pictured above.

Needless, is it, to remind anyone of the wrath, ultimately, to be suffered. Tattlers take the top of the hill. The import of the information and the weight of the offense are seldom configured in the mind of a child. A mere subconscious point system is feathered, mostly. Such are the trials and tribulations of growing up in a competitive environment. Hence, the modern Press. Much the same, to my perception. A news urchin runs to his or her editor (read mother) with something to be said, something to be seen. There's an alleged "offender" to be outed or a damning blasphemy to be published. Again, never mind the gravity and the import of what's to be told. No matter the immeasurable damage to be done.
