It took a Lansdale, Pa. guy to tell all you "Chicago guys" where that backward "K" came from? WOW, I am impressed.

After looking at the sportscar pic's from Nickey made me think of another place a couple of miles away that was very heavy into that type of racing also..........anyone remember the &quot;Meister Brausers&quot; race team.....from the Meister Brau Brewery that was down around Clybourn and Division......

I was in Chicago for the first time in my life about 3 weeks ago and wanted to try one of those Chicago dogs but couldn't find a place on my route that I could get the trailer into... So, I was denied a Chicago dog and/or Chicago Pizza as well. I settled for a Dennys [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/crazy.gif[/img]

Will they deliver to Alabama Paul? I'm 40 and only been to Chi-town once. Not sure when i'll make it back [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]. I did enjoy the trip though, I had to go to Loyola University. I was surprised how easy it was to get in and out of town. Lots easier than my trips in and out of NY.
