Yikes, what are you planning on doing where you're wet all day?

Hmmm, the last time I was there someone lit up a joint in the tunnel. I'm not sure which is worse. Although, it did make the ride a bit more trippy.

A day late and a dollar short....that's what I do best. Happy B-Day Derek! I had a Fat Tire last night in your honor. Did you expect anything less???

^^ You will submit to the tastiness that is the butter burger! ^I was thinking the same thing....poor White Castle...or any fast food venue we may invade en mass.

Elissa is on her own. It's time to hit up as many Culver's and White Castles as possible on this trip!

Great TR Derek. You just made my wife jump with glee (literally) when she saw that Sam Adams was a "country." T-minus 5 days.....

Shouldn't this be in "Random, Random, Random," as it's a Random, Random, Random TR???? Just asking....

^ I know! It's the week I'm there. I'll be rocking out in my leg warmers and parachute pants!

Awesome TR. I love a good flying buttress! The architecture is certainly impressive, what a once in a life time chance to do something like this. I'm partial to the architecture in the bottom middle of this picture. Grrrrr!

Oh no......I see where all my money flying out of my pocket already.....Sam Adams Black Lager is yummy and delicious! Eight more days!

^ Hey, it's good stuff! Not as good as Coke, but not too shabby either. It's no Pepsi Blue (which I still have a bottle of).

Holy crap Guy, I think I just peed my seat from laughing so hard!

Shea ain't that great, and was really unimpressed with Yankee Stadium as well. Turner Field is on my list of parks to get too, just not too high up.

This sounds terrible, but it's not worth the aggravation. Just take it down, unless you really want to lose your job, or face all sorts of moronic sensitivity classes. The corporate world here is full of stupidity. We have a person her who has missed over 60 days this year, do they reprimand her or fire her??? NO, in fact, she alleged that someone in our group was verbally harassing and we all had to move desks to accomodate her. She's missed over 2 months since then...sounds fair doesn't it? ^ Crispy, I'll agree that the Civil War was about more than slavery, but I think they've simplified it a bit too much.

Hotels and the like were one of the first things that came back after Katrina. It's all about tourism down there.

Elissa, Please, do you really think I doubt you? Every route into the city from the south is torn up. 90/94, 80/90, 294, the Skyway...it's a total disaster. Although, there's only one city that I hated traffic more than Chicago....LA. You guys (and gals) are nuts to put up with it.

^^ Sorry, I wasn't accusing you as being a casual Cubs fan. I meant the typical casual Cubs fan. Trust me, I've been watching in misery for 31 years. It's one of the most backwards run organizations out there, starting at the top. Dusty should get fired??? Pahleeze, this is just as much Hendry and McFail's problem too. Word here is that if A-Ram goes, they're gonna blow up the whole thing and restart....100 years of rebuilding, WOOHOO!

I really hope you aren't expecting me to argue that. You're just mad that like his usual idiot self, Hendry will sign Girardi and a bunch of mid tier free agents to give the casualt Cub fan hope......100 years and counting....

Fulton County Stadium was the worst? You should of gone to County Stadium in Milwaukee...AKA Third World Stadium, it was the pits. No bratwurst made that trip worth it. Why did the Braves have to give the division to the Mets....anyone but another NY team....

Yikes, it reminds me of my old place before I was married. The arm of a sofa is the best place for T-shirts. Why fold them up and put them away if you're just going to wear them in a few short days?!

I'm pretty sure most of us that have been to SFGAm or CP in the middle of the summer will hardly call the crowds tame. My concern is us getting into Chicago via the south end. The Dan Ryan is in a major reconstruction project and is a total disaster. It can take a couple of hours to traverse it, especially in the middle of the day.

Gotta love the Exit row!!!!! The general public scares me. We're sheep, look at all those fools standing in line, and there's signs telling them that they're the same airline!

Let's see, Owens railed Donovan Mcnabb up and down the sideline on TV, and Bonds is known to be a total a-hole in the locker room. Yes, they both sound like fine upstanding teammates. Either way, this story should not be front page news anywhere.

^ Wait, we're not getting college credit for this trip???? WTF???!!!

I stand corrected. You are right!
