Ahhhh... Chicago....

Chicago was a good time. Thanks to everyone for making it a great trip!

• Mr. Larry & Jim : For putting up with us invading their domain for nearly a week. My only regret is that I couldn't slow down for a day and spend more time with y'all. Expect gifts in the mail.
• Fuji : For having the best lounges in the Windy City. A Small Bar is currently my favorite, and I'll always stop by whenever I'm near.
• Matt : Always great to see you, big guy - we can never get enough.
• Frankie and Frederick : for bringing me to the best music in the best city. You guys are always #1 in my book of people I love to work with in clubs, and I look forward to every event in our future. (read about the show HERE)
• Dougie & Victoria : Gosh, you two are one darn cute couple. We've come a long way together so far, eh?
• Brett : My oldest friend, whom I always look forward to. Our Chi-town visits wouldn't be the same without ya.
• Allen : Man, I still can't believe you came out to the show. I'm thrilled, honored, and suchlike. One day, we will work together again...
• Jeff Moyer : Ahhhh... I hadn't heard music that intense in a while. You still rock, tuff guy.
• Yosh : Lookin' good, freaky-lady. Great to see you dancing again!
• Christie, Jeff and the gang : Nice place, nice kids, nice life - and now you've got Sue asking me for a pool. (And you're right - if we lived on the same street, we would be over nearly every day for PS2 championships, and I would make Jeff work on music as often as possible).
• Doug & Lulu : Sorry we couldn't make it to the party - but man, the family just absorbs the time, you know? Thanks for the invite & the forgiveness.

Of course, can't forget the families - Sue & I visited just about everyone we could get our grubby little paws on. Gotta love the Cubs Vs. Sox arguments!

Unfortunately, we couldn't visit the Ren Faire (it wasn't open when we got to town) sooooo... maybe we'll swing back for a weekend. But it'll be totally unannounced, so I guess you'll all just have to keep yer eyes peeled for us.

All righty then - I need to get some things done. I have a ton of PHP tutorials to do if I'm ever gonna get this site up and running well.

Stay tuned.
