Hello FM! Nice to see you.
7:34 am
Uniquity
The e-mail skills of babblers can be a bit lax.
7:34 am
FMitch
so many friendly faces all at the same time!
7:34 am
Judi
It was an effort, but I knew the grid was calling me.
7:34 am

7:35 am
Haz1558
No tantrums here, Lori. We've all got to smile nicely, we've got a nice big grid today!
7:35 am
Uniquity
Look at Lori. I am only copying my mother.

Uniquity

7:36 am
Haz1558
You were talking, Judi, not making much sense, but you're all better now.
7:36 am
LoriP

7:36 am
beachboggle
Nice big grid today, as compared to yesterday!
7:37 am
Haz1558
You must have been working like fury behind the scenes, Lori. No complaints or anything.
7:37 am
Haz1558
Hello beach.
7:37 am
Anniebrook
hi beach
7:37 am
LoriP
Once a year I decide to not complain. today was the day, so revel in the moment.
7:37 am
Uniquity
That is because there are no re words. She must have been pleasant for once.
7:38 am
Haz1558
A red letter day. No complaints from Lori. I will mark it in the calendar. Does it fall on the same day every year or must we wait for the mood to strike?
7:38 am
Haz1558
Hello Boo.
7:38 am
NonoNanette
Good Morning Babblers :)

LoriP
If there isn't a list posted yet (somewhere, anywhere) somebody who remembers their Bab Anon login (unlike me) can copy it from my profile and throw it in. I feel like whackin' some zombies in a game that Uni forced me to become addicted to.
7:45 am
Anniebrook

NonoNanette
Thanks Lori for the list I'll see if i can post it at bab anon

7:48 am
Uniquity

5:15 pm
flosey

5:16 pm
DR1965
I understand that. I am relieved that they are both doing well
5:16 pm
jillibus
Nef, I saw that too -- I find the babanon list easier to arrange so it fits on the screen over where Lickety's usually is (in BabbleExpert)
5:16 pm
Nef

5:16 pm
flosey
thanks DR, I really appreciate all the concern I've received here in babble

I find PC a tiresome aspect of my job
5:34 pm
Nef

5:49 pm
EspritdJean
I meant the name change!
5:49 pm
kje
if you do not like it, I'll pick up your tab ; )
5:49 pm
EspritdJean
they could change statue of liberty to torch lady or something
5:50 pm
jmcnrick
lol kje I would have to come to Texas to get it!
5:50 pm
Mary
agree esprit still call it Sears tower
5:50 pm
kje
nah - I'll mail it - but if you come to texas i'll pay it in dinner and drinks
5:50 pm
EspritdJean
everyone will
5:50 pm
jmcnrick
I am waiting for a sailor to come pick me up for supper so where is the jazz place
5:50 pm
EspritdJean
look at all the written stuff they would have to change
5:51 pm
kje
4802 north broadway
5:51 pm
EspritdJean
is the fleet in jmn?
5:51 pm
kje
cool bar, jmc - dates all the way back to post prohibition time.... walls are covered with all the freats who have played there
5:51 pm
jmcnrick
ooo th e sears tower? I did that years ago. WHat's with the Willis Tower stuff?
5:52 pm
EspritdJean
they want to change the name from Sears to Willis
5:52 pm
jmcnrick
I am downtown in the loop -- how does that jive?
5:52 pm
jmcnrick
ol'e blue eyes himself in town ;-)
5:52 pm
EspritdJean
it's a 20 min taxi ride
5:52 pm
kje
jmc - hop in a cab and go....
5:53 pm
jmcnrick
which direction? maybe I will get him to take me to a restaurant near by
5:53 pm
EspritdJean
north of you
5:53 pm
kje
that is what we did, i heard about this place by eavesdropping on a couple at a restaurant one night and they were saying it was theirfave club in chicago - so my friend and i walked outside, i googled the address on my iphone, caught a cab, and went
5:53 pm
kje
hmmm.... not sure about restaurants nearby - LOL - interesting neighborhood
5:54 pm
kje
if you are in the loop - go to blackbird
5:54 pm
EspritdJean
that's Uptown, very mixed
5:54 pm
kje
http://www.blackbirdrestaurant.com/
5:54 pm
EspritdJean
blackbird is not near your jazz club
5:55 pm
EspritdJean
it is also very expensive and doubt if you would get in without reservation
5:55 pm
kje
jmc - NORTH broadway - therefore, it is NORTH
5:55 pm
kje
blackbird is not near the jazz club, you can call and get reservation - they do pretty well with early seatings - and moderately expensive and worth every penny
5:56 pm
kje
then catch cab to jazz club
5:56 pm
jmcnrick
so what is the name of this club? and is it the kind of place where they are all over you like white on rice if you sneeze?
5:57 pm
kje
there is the chicago jazz showcase which is closer to the loop, but i didn't think it was as good... though still good if you want to do that... but the showcase had a big cover charge, greenmill was cheap
5:57 pm
jmcnrick
greenmill --I think I went there last time I was here
5:57 pm
kje
the club is The Green Mill - and it is casual... it is not a touristy place at all, and you may have to stand if you show up after 1030
5:58 pm
jmcnrick
great music but a lot of attitude
5:58 pm
jmcnrick
well since it looks like I am eating at 7 10:30 shouldn't be a problem
5:58 pm
jmcnrick
how hard would it be to catch a cab back?
5:59 pm
kje
not at all... we walked out the door about 1230, waved, and cab stopped
5:59 pm
kje
wow, i didn't get attitude at all.... you are just being senstive - chicago up and get a shell, jmc!!! ; )
6:00 pm
jmcnrick
that's me all sensitive!
6:01 pm
jmcnrick
*puts helmet on*
6:01 pm
jmcnrick
so no one is suggesting the blue man group?
6:02 pm
EspritdJean
I love Blue Man
6:02 pm
EspritdJean
it's a lot of fun
6:03 pm
EspritdJean

6:03 pm
jmcnrick
my great grandmother in law used to own the land where the navy pier is
6:04 pm
EspritdJean
you mean the pier itself?
6:04 pm
jmcnrick
maybe it was great great -- no the land before the pier
6:05 pm
EspritdJean
there is no lang, it's a pier built on the lake
6:05 pm
jmcnrick
sorry I am being imprese with my husbands family lore -- the land from which the pier juts out
6:06 pm
jmcnrick
you can be sexist racist or ag***
6:06 pm
EspritdJean
that woulda been worth a nice chunk of change
6:06 pm
jmcnrick
what do I know? it isn't even my own family lore
6:06 pm
kje
is that the 1st? i was thinking it was the second
6:07 pm
EspritdJean
Lake Point Tower is currently the very easternmost building in Chicago
6:07 pm

oh! I almost forgot! we heard quite the racy story from out of nottingham over here - apparently some lady ordered a gorilla-gram for her son's birthday at his school, and they sent a stripper instead. she showed up at his school, did her WHOLE act, and tried to get him to rub lotion on her bottom and the whole thing. the school is apparently "looking into" the incident.

how is your finger doing, Trifioso?
11:12 pm
Trifioso
BR, thank you so much for asking! it is doing pretty well, really. turns out babbling is just about as good a therapy as you could hope for. no infection, still have finger nail ( tap wood). nerves are regenerating at about 1mm a week, which is as good as can be hoped for, I guess
11:12 pm
Trifioso
all in all, I am really quite lucky.
