Dammit I will be there in spirit, and will be at Soldier Field the next day for the Bear game – I am sure I will see the rubble from this party on the way there.

Have fun. I wish I could be there.

Good program, Jay. I’ll be in Boston, or I’d join you.

I am going to see “burn after reading” at 2pm at 600 N Michigan and will head down to the allegro after that. It is 96 minutes and with commercials and stuff I probably will get there a bit after 4pm. can’t do all the items on the program but definitely can find time for a drink or two and to say hello
