Chicago: The Return


Chicago is known for several things that suck: the band of the same name, the eponymous musical featuring hamster ass, and my beloved Chicago Cubs. I shall be making another visit to the city this weekend and my goal is to avoid all of these things.
Except maybe the Cubs - I am like a deer in headlights when it comes to my beloved baseball team, unable to get out of the way as yet another season heads wildly off the tracks. Sadly, the team is being unfairly forced by Major League Baseball to play its last 40 or so meaningless games. If I indeed do make the trek to Wrigley Field, there better be enough beer left in the city of Chicago to help me cope with the inevitable result.

How was Chicago? My bro was just there and loved it. Love the new look for the website, by the way.

Chicago is an awesome town, I felt like such a hick there, being amazed by a beer delivery service and constantly staring out of the window at the amazing views from the top of my friend's 44 story building, which as I understand it is kind of a small skycraper by Chicago standards.
