I couldn't. Then things changed, and I didn't plan on going b/c it was already started. Then ChicagoRon convinced me, and I'm damn glad that he did. Little hungover though.

Lou - you missed some good stuff when you left, like the part where he vehemently denied that the ramen at Arami was any good (told me there's better Japanese noodles at a Thai place in the 'burbs) or - my favorite - the part where his friends were actually arguing with me about which way is NORTH - when I had a compass in my hand, no less.

Looks like it was one hell of good time! I would have loved to join but I used up all my brownie points drinking Bischoff Doppleböck at the Christkindlmarket

I have this too. Cool, but I've never really used it much.

The Intercontinental was "meh"...we had one round and left. The small upstairs bar at the Elysian on the Gold Coast and Rebar at the Trump were much better.
