Fear not, true believers. **Superdude** in an ongoing battle to find cheaper airfare to Chicago, has stumbled upon an airline ticket for about $200 than what he was going to pay originally. However, his flight now leaves at 11:20am, and lands at Midway Airport in Chicago at 11:25am. He will staying in that lovely city until his flight home from Midway at 6:40pm Monday. Now, all he has to do is figure out how to get anywhere from Midway. But the rest of my plans with everyone should not change in any way. ---

Shit. Now you got to get to Woodfield from Midway? You’d better BELIEVE you’ll be riding the el! Course, on your way through downtown, if you want to quaff a stein of dark at the Berghoff bar … Not to mods: how’s it going on the plans for that “all Superdude” forum? ---

I wouldn’t have to worry about where I was going to sleep. ---

Just wait til he starts doing part of his stand-up for you… and he doesn’t even drink! Jeez, if we’ve got people offering to buy plane tickets - can I get in line? ---

What I want to know is - since when do Super heroes file flight plans? Don’t they just don the cape and go? ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by GingerOfTheNorth \* > \*\*What I want to know is - since when do Super heroes file flight plans? \*\* That’s a legitimate question, **GotN**. I have to file flight plans ever since that ugly incident at O’Hare a few years ago where I flew up to the window, where a flight was delayed for several hours, knocked, flipped off the people who turned, and flew away. Apparantly that violates some sort of FAA regulation. ---

I sense a disturbance in the force! Or perhaps it might be that **Superdude’s** plane just landed! Who will be the first to post a legitimate **Superdude** sighting? This could be like **Where’s Waldo?** ---

I hope you have a great weekend. Can you please be sure to post a separate thread about every single activity you do? Flights, riding the eL, taking cash out of the ATM, flossing, walking, taking The Reader out of the bin, buying a coke, reading a map, every building you see, every beer you drink, every scrap of food you ingest, every person you see…your readers want to know! 😛 😃😛 ---

Good point, Sinead, I mean, **mags**. Do we get stamps on a card for every post we read? Do we get a free **Superdude** stick pin or figurine when we fill up the card? Inquiring minds want to know. Have a ball. ---

Aw, give him a break: he hasn’t figured out that he can post to the same thread more than once, especially when the subject remains the same or is related. He’s Super, not Omniscient!
