Milwaukee road trip
My niece and I went to Milwaukee today to visit my dear friend, Michael, and get the lay of the land. Michael is great! Milwaukee is cool! My niece is always swell. And on the way back we stopped and I bought yogurt, lunch meat, and tomatoes. Life is RICH!!
The bombs bursting in air
It's been well documented in this web log that I live on the 20th floor of a building that looks out at the lake. Between me and the lake is a beach, Lake Shore Drive, a strip of Lincoln Park, a big ass partially-blocking-my-view senior high rise, some high-end row houses, and the Saddle and Cycle Club. The Saddle and Cycle Club is a very exclusive country-club-in-the-city. Years ago, I worked at a company whose executives were members and we had a company party there. It was lovely -- manicured lawns, a lovely clubhouse, good catering department -- and I could get home on public transportation. It's still there and is bigger.

In addition to taking the lowest of low roads whenever possible, he has dishonest hair. A man's hair is not supposed to lie. It's pronounced "PEEN-chay." and is a souvenir of a friend's trip to Mexico. (Google the meaning.)
