Thanks for volunteering to help Kari. We all wanted to see you in a bikini and since I know you will be wearing a wetsuit when I meet you in California that isn't the same thing at all. :D

I'm gonna crash, can I crash? Or is asking permission totally counter-intuitive to the act of crashing? Dammit, I think I messed it up. Lemme start over. Can I crash? :D

You need to add Rush Street to your list of things to do and if I go to chicago, sometime that weekend I am going out to the suburbs to bob chinn's crab house in wheeling. The one downtown is not the same.

Even more people... Yeah!
The fat suit? Uh I don't think you would want to be washing cars in Chicago wearing a fat suit. I don't know why don't we leave it up to concensus... should we start a poll? :D

I'm not a fan of Rush Street, Wrigleyville and Southport/Milwaukee are much better in my opinion.

Not Milwaukee, WI, I meant the Southport Ave/Milwaukee Ave. area of Chicago. Basically right next to Wrigleyville.

I don't live in Chicago and it wouldn't be as exciting if I was in charge. I just don't know the town. Last time I was in Illinois I was about 2. I will help keeping track of details if that sounds good. Raz has done a great job with the web page. Thanks Raz! :D Sorry BRx8 you da man.

Here's a list of things I think are unique and within Chicago proper that come to mind:

WWII German U Boat - Museum of Science and Industry (one captured during WWII)
Lion Skins from "Ghost and the Darkness Film" and complete T-Rex Skeleton - Fields Museum
Numerious Impressionist Era, Jackson Pollock and Winslow paintings - Art Institute
Chicago Pizza - Uno, Gino's East, Giordano's
Wrigley Field/Wrigleyville - lots of bars and such
Frank Lloyd Wright Architecture
Ernest Hemingway Museum and birthplace
Magnificent Mile - for those that want to clothes shop
Sears Tower - not a big deal to me, but everyone always wants to go

yea, Sue is the largest and most complete T.Rex in the world...now do you want to come, Raz??

http://www.fieldmuseum.org/exhibits/sue_permexhib.htm

Chicago Pizza - Uno, Gino's East, Giordano's
Wrigley Field/Wrigleyville - lots of bars and such
i've always preferred New York style thin crust pizzas but a lot of people do like the stuffed pizzas of Giordano's...it looks like it's inside out, imo

and Wrigleyville is a great place to barhop

Magnificent Mile - for those that want to clothes shop
Sears Tower - not a big deal to me, but everyone always wants to go
Michigan Ave is pretty nice to just visit and not even buy anything...it has a huge FAO Schwartz, Nike Town with indoor basketball court so you can try out your skids before you buy them, and Oprah's house...i wonder if we can crash Oprah's house and ask for free cars

Sears Tower is boring...i've been there once the entire time i've lived in Chicago which is all my life (not including the few times i ate lunch there in the Mezzanine)...i pass it up every day to and from work...there's really not much to do except go up to the top and see the city...

I forgot about the FLW museum. I did a paper on his work in college and man he was a magnificent designer. There's so much about the man's work that amazes me that i can't even come close to explaining.
