I’m going out to Chicago on Monday. I have to install a new server and a RAID into our satellite office. I would love the chance to meet some Chicago dopers, if they are in the neighborhood. I’m addicted to Portillo’s and might just eat there every chance I get. Monday night, Tuesday Lunch, and Tuesday night. I’m shacking up at the Incontinent (or is that the Intercontinental?), which is right accross the street from the office at 444 Michigan.
A visit to a bar or a boiger at the Billy Goat Tavern could be in my future as well.
Anyone up for it?
a note to all you pervs out there, I’m not a nurse, and not a carmen. I’m a 6’0 185lb unshaven computer geek from Minneapolis, sorry to quash any fantasies
Just thought I say that I’m currently in Glenview, and there is a Portillo’s down the road. I doubt I could get off of work on Monday though. Have fun!
It looks like I’m working late. Since my normal 1 hour flight from Minnneapolis turned into a 7 hour oddessy that included a lovely visit to Detroit, I’m working from behind. If you work late often, I’m certain I’ll require a beer after work. I’m aiming for 7:00.
Sometimes I work late. With both kids sick and my wife home with them and already “up to here” in her had-it-ness, I am going to seriously try to avoid it tonight (and if I do, can’t stop for a quick beer).
Sorry.
I wouldn’t have even lorded the Bears win over you - I’m not a big fan.
Don’t know if you’re driving ort flying, buy if you feel like stopping in Madison, I’m game for dinner &/or drinks. We can try to round up some other Mad Town Dopers, as well.
Post your plans for Wednesday lunch and/or dinner. Might join you. Assuming I can get out of my building, which is right across the friggin’ street fromthe LaSalle Bank building that burned last night…
We’ve got one entrance open, though the street is closed and the cops are yelling at anyone trying to get down to our building. Hey, I’ll be more than happy to turn around and go home, guys.
Look for a Northwest Airlines 757, left side, 20 windows back, Wednesday around 3ish. I’ll be waving at you!
I fly out tomorrow, and I’m going to duck out before lunch. Luckily, the folks here saw me hard at work, knew about my love for Portillo’s ribs, and brought me a full slab dinner.
Have fun!
