I came on a school trip. Saw the blue man group, ate at Gino's, Ed Debevics, another place (forgot the name) visited the Hancock Building. That view is amazing. Visited the art institute. I don't know how many people are based out of Chicago on this board but I must say it is an outstanding city.

Might I also add when I went to the art institute I made sure I got a picture next to every sculpture and painting of a naked lady

That's a good idea. :D You missed the Field Museum?

Chicago is an amazing city, don't make it there as nearly often as I would like to. I've always wanted to re-enact the day Ferris had in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Minus singing Danke Schoen. And destroying the Ferrari at the end of the day.

My grandfather used to take us on the train to Lake Shore to see the lights and go shopping for Christmas. One time the train was so full we had to all sit in the ladies room most of the way. My grandmother was pissed, so we didn't ride the train anymore.

There's supposed to be a Japanese garden left over from the 189? Worlds Fair near the Fields. The next I'm in town I will see that for myself.

I was looking for all the places they went to in the art museum but the place is so damn big..

Funny story. As I was doing this pose, (seeking boobs from a distance)

My friend was taken by surprise and laughed and as he laughed he let out a HUGE fart. The room was silent so everyone heard it. I immediately booked out of the room as I was dying of laughter. Funniest thing I've ever experienced.

Hate to tell this to you Brudder...you're staring at quasi-man-boob in that picture (that's a statue of a Boddhisatva). Not to mention that the bronze two spots to your left in that photo (the "dancing Shiva" or Nataraja [the one with the ring of fire surrounding it]) is also a dude...yes, I know it has tits, but it's a visage of a male deity.

At that point it didn't matter, because my pose was perfect.
