You hit the nail on the head. The sausage is different. The spices are all wrong. There was one pizza place down here that was started by a guy from Eastern Michigan who knew Chicago pizza. Unfortunantly, he located in about the worst part of the worst town for success and folded in 7 months. He was having the sausage shipped in from a vendor in, I believe, Tinley Park. The place near 53 and Algonquin was a smaller chain. I never picked up, so I don't remember the exact location. I do remember being told they also had a pizza buffet at lunch. I've done the Lou's route but I think it is my electric oven that somehow takes away from the full Lou's taste. Eli's almost killed me. I use to drive by their outlet 2 times a week, always right after lunch. I had a 2 cheesecake a week habit for a while. Damn those are good. The manager of my club had one sent in for my birthday a couple years ago. I hooked a few people on chocolate chip cheesecake after that.

I was wondering what I did. Thanks cw for thinking I had lost my mind.

I think it is the curse of Bobby Hull.

I love the whole excitment of the campaigns. Growing up in Lake County I was always on the losing end. Grace Mary Stern was the only Dem to ever get re-elected in Lake county for 100 years. I also remember when the Equal Rights Amendment was on it's last legs. I stopped by the office and there was such sadness. People who had spent literally years trying to get it passed knew the end was then. 25 feet away was a party for an aquantance who was going to the state senate. Cheers, party noises, champaign. I didn't think I could ever care about a campaign again.

Nope, there is no pizza in Texas. The worst pizza in Chicago is way better than the best in Texas. And they cut the damn thing in pie shaped wedges instead of squares. I refuse to call any round thing with cheese and sauce a pizza just because some chain calls it that. Give me a A. Pat's Revenge from Pat's Pizza in Grayslake. Sausage, Green Pepper, Onion, and Mushroom. B. Lou Malnatti's deep dish sausage C. Damn I forget the place near Algonquin and 53 in Schaumburg. Great bacon (not canadian) pizza.

I thought Yes, More than 1 Party would cover that.

When the mercury hits 100 degrees in Chicago, the city calls it a weather emergency, people die, and the city opens up cooling shelters. Here it is just another summer day. Likewise, when it hits 40 degrees here, people die and they open up emergency warming shelters. People in Chicago put on a sweater. I use to spend my winters out ice fishing, camping in Wisconsin, a little skiing at one of the Mt. Trashmores or in Lake Geneva. Now that would kill me. But I regularly walk the course when it hits 103 and just make sure to drink plenty of water and shorten up my swing. The tendency is to overswing in really hot weather. You also need to keep the grips dry. Now a couple years ago we hit 109 with 55% humidity, that was a very nasty day.

cw I am so disappointed I was looking for on your list

Cheat, where did you ind the movie of 2k4?

You want a candidate that will set you on fire? You need this man

You've been watching too many Crocodile Dundee movies.

We have 4 seasons in Texas. McAllen temps ranch from lows in the 40's during winter to lows in the 80's and 90's during summer. We have Maples that change color and drop their leaves. I trade snow and frostbite for 100+ days for weeks on end. It's all from where you sit. Y'all don't have a summer. I don't have a winter.

Wish I had added that to my buy list. BTW, soxtalk.com is mine if y'all ever forget to pay your bill

I don't know to laugh or cry. Great avatar

Congratulations on getting your first choice. That is a great area of research to get into. Being in an area that is largly bi-lingual I am more interested in language development than before. Partly because I want to understand why I can not seem to "get" a foreign language. Who are some of the profs you will be working with?

I just read the article and didn't get the same feel. He reported that some poeple have said he lost his position. That may be true, some people may think he has lost focus on football, whatever. Same thing in golf when a player gets married. How many times did some head in the media say Tiger's downfall will be marriage and children? I hear about coaches and quarterbacks working 70 and 80 hour weeks. Basically giving up their lives for football. Anyone who gives less is considered to not have focus or the desire to win. Maybe not exact to Warner's statements but I think his overall comment about what other people in football think are right on.

Martha, how was that Whopper with cheese?

Damn weather forcasters. Same thing here. they can never get partly sunny from partly cloudy right the 70 degrees they get right.

I don't think Chaney is as big a liability that Q was to H.W. (who by the way is in town for a fund raiser here.)

qui yah hey der but from Canada. big boy hmm $299 is an excellent fare.

Asked earlier. I am seeing Bush-Cheney 04 bumper stickers. Has Bush dropped Cheney? Or is this speculation?

The issue I faced was a love for Psy and realizing I needed a Masters to really do anything in the field. So I delayed and delayed about returning. Then, it sounds embarassing to admit, I realized the time I was spending at my Country Club improving my golf game could be spent in college. The University of Texas Pan American campus is 10 minutes from my front door. I talked it over with my family and cried as I was tendering my resignation as President of the Men's Golf Assoc. and general membership. I do miss the early evenings on the putting green having a beer and talking with my buddies. Being able to drop by pretty much anytime and getting in a game. The tournaments. It's been replaced with cramming for exams and trying to remember stuff from my first 3 years old college in the early 80s. Having to go back and complete some new general ed requirements is a pain in the ass, but it will be worth it. If my damn knee had not of given me trouble I would have finished the first time. (Athletic scholarship was gone, I was pissed, uncertain what to do)
