I can't stand anymore, getting into the same store for the 5th time and still my wife doesn't know if the bloody thing is the right thing (please nobody tells anything about that on Sunday).


What thing? The food? Dont worry about it... i know a girl from Singapore that couldn't figure out how much money she had and would just hand stacks of bills and coins to the vendor and ask them to figure it out. She's a trusting gal.

Got the tickets. Leave AA tomorrow morning for Chicago and shall stay overnight near O'Hare airport. Shall appreciate a lot if anybody will be able to give me a ride to the hotel (I cover gas in both directions :) ) if we shall stay till late night, because the hotel's shuttle operates only till midnight and it's another hour and a half to get to the airport by the Blue Line.

Just joined the group.

I vote for the 20th/21st. That's just a couple of days before KWEST/Random Walk so I believe mostly everyone should be there by then.
