Greetings from Chicago

[imdrsmooth]

I arrived a few hours ago. Complementary internet rocks! So far my impressions of Chicago are all good. We'll see how things go when work starts up tomorrow.

[Willow Sylph]

Complimentary?! Cool! Is it cold over there right now?

[sparticle]

'D'ja get the laptop/battery thing resolved?

Have fun -- I have heard Chicago can be a really cool town.

Just remember:

Do NOT, under any circumstances, ask for ketchup on your hot dogs.

Chicagoans are SO snippy about that!

Ain't that right, P?

[Klynne]

And for God's sake, do not go to the south side of Chicago, unless you want to be killed! Been there, done that, and I lived. I was lucky.

That Ketchup thing is real. I don't know if Wrigley Field changed, but when I was there, it wasnt offered...

[zenbabe]

They dye the river green there!!!!!

I haven't really done anything about the laptop battery yet but it seems like I will be able to have the laptop on wall power most of the time. The downtown area of Chicago is so clean! It's amazing. I walked over and checked out lake Michigan. The hotel is only a few blocks away from the lake.

I don't eat meat so the hotdog thing won't be a problem but thanks for the warning. I will be on the lookout for people that do ask for ketchup just to watch the reaction hehe.

Have fun, catch a Cubs game, go to a show, and workworkwork!
