Chicago II: Corrections and Deceptions

Apparently I'm in Norwood Park, not Oakwood park as previously stated. This was due to the fact that I don't know Chicago that well, and was mistaken, not that I was trying to deceive anyone here. I did tell my mother that I'm staying at a Holiday Inn, not at the home of three gay men, so this, this would be an attempt at deception. Mom also doesn't know that I'm traveling to Grand Rapids in a veiled attempt to meet other gay men, who just happen to be watching "Theater".

Apparently this whole trip is a ruse to meet many, many gay men, and not just to see Cubs games and such (though I would like to see some cubs playing games...can this be arranged?)

Also, since we are revealing several secrets here, Soylent Green is people. It's made out of people, man.


Otherwise, a trip to NorthHalsted was fun, looking at various toys made for adults, not kids. No way most of those things are getting close to me, thank you! Good Grief! And then out to Lake Michigan, my first Great Lake to see in person! I also saw that fountain...you know, the one at the beginning of Married...With Children. We'll try to actually get out of the car next time! Well, I'm packed and ready for GR and plays and such. Looks like we will be traveling to the other side of the lake for a while.

More later...

You mean BD's? We go to the one in DFW all the time. But I'm also for going again.

All I know is it's the Mongolian BBQ in Boystown. First Mongolian BBQ I'd ever been to, and no matter where I have been since, all others have paled to it's quality of food and setting.

I think it is a BD's. We'll just have to take you to ours next time you are up here and see if it looks familiar.

OK, before you head further east to see "Theater", know that those of us in the business are snooty as hell and insist on "Theatre". LOL.
Also, the New Peking on Broadway just south of Belmont is great. The General Tsao's Chicken is my favorite.
Did you make it to GayMart?
Have a great time.

Hear, hear!

And it's a "rehearsal," not a "practice."

Welcome to Chicago, and Norwood Park. Have you seen Norwood Park's park? Have John show it to you.

I trust I WILL see you before you head out. Ne?

Hi Mike!

It was great meeting and hanging out with you tonight. I hope you enjoy your stay here in GR. Was the Monument to Flouride all it was cracked up to be?
