Is that this weekend? Drat. I was just in Chicago last week. (I went to the Great Lakes Naval Station for my niece's graduation.)
I also went to Milwaukee where I met 4zack. Interesting experience.

As soon as I come to a breaking point, I'll tell you a little about zack. We hooked up for a drink in spite of the fact he asked me to meet him at a bar that no longer exists.
True-to-form zack, I guess.

Although technically, I think we want to hear about zack's father, not zack.

Just got home after a long day because the taste of chicago & tattoo expo which is going on at Navy pier and sooo much traffic to deal with so this isn't going to be long.
Didn't have a chance to get find members booths yet because of every thing going on. But premier night was a blast & have to give credit were it's due & that's to wizard staff.. We get to the show and the computer shows that we canceled a VIP package (which never happened) BUT wizard staff contacted the main person in New York and they fixed everything for us hassle free..HUGE KUDOS TO THE WIZARDF STAFF & REGAN MOLONEY..:D#banana2#:D
Get to the parking garage and every thing is done by computers now:mad:
park and get inside where the air condition is going and poor saps with regular tickets have to stand out side in the heat (I felt bad for them)
we got in line and about 40 people infront of us by time we were let in about 150 or more behind us #woohoo#
the deals & cool stuff that was going on was unbelievable CGC hooked me up with the number of book I submitted and can pick them up tomorrow after the show.
My camera batteries ran out (what a surprise) so the pictures I have a few but I did get some & a better report after tomorrows show.

Looks like you will be having some fun at Chi-town this weekend. Chicago is a great place to visit and travel. My wife went up there last fall and she's amazed by the vast buildings Chicago has to offer.
Great pics, Razor. Keep us posted!

Cool. Now that I know Chicago like the back of my hand from spending one day at the Navy Pier, could you tell me where the convention is? The south side of Chicago, the baddest part of town? On State Street, that great street? The Union Stockyards?
We wandered up and down Lakeshore Drive, and I really wish we'd have more time to explore the city in depth. It looks like my kind of... city.
"Congratulations to your niece."
Thank you. She was only the second shortest person in her class, although at 103 pounds, I'm sure she was the lightest. She looked so cool in her dress white. She was telling us about how weird it was the first day there when she was showering with 40 naked girls under two showerheads. I wanted to hear more, but my sister and cousin kept poking me.
My cousin said, "She's your niece!" And I replied, "Yes, but 39 of them aren't!"

I think Rosemont is the area where my wife stayed at a hotel. She didn't like the area, is it that the one close by Midway airport?
