Anyway. We need to think of a list of activities people would like to do. I doubt that most people will have thier 8's as it's a LONG drive from either coast!

There's Chinatown (eat)

There's a Zoo

There's that street with all the bars

There's Hogshead mcdunnas (sp) (if it's still there) Best bloody mary bar around!

There's that 50's diner place where they are rude to you.

There's the park where the Married With Children fountain was (is?)

We can go do the "Good Times" tour.. OK maybe not..

There's a 6 flags park.

Sears Tower, where I was viciously sniffed by a bunny.

93rd will want to check out the Greyhound station where this guy tried to give me a bag of pot for free.

I get the tube of WHAT?

Well, Our ShadowrunMUSH meet was in Chicago back in '95 (i think)

We had 15 people show up.. Good turnout for back then. People from as far away as Puerto Rico and NYC, I was in N.O. myself.
