Lmao, hey, I think we should all be happy for me, because I have acquired the easiest to please girlfriend ever.

Also, I told her I'd make her breakfast last weekend, offered her eggs, waffles, pancakes, french toast, hash browns....she kept saying no, I offered a grilled cheese, she suddenly was hungry. She just loves her grilled cheeses.

cute little girlfriend :D
lmfao. This is a really good topic. Now next question next question.



What would be a "must see" in Chicago? Lets say for example, a place for someone who isnt from around here would never forget? Keeping in mind, this person has never been to Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota. I'm trying to bring him to Chicago, but I'm not really familiar myself. I've just heard of places. What is really good?

well you can always kill two birds with one stone... go to the hancock building and theres a restaurant on the 95th floor... its called the signature room... its pretty damn cool... a little on the pricey side... but well worth it in my opinion

If either of you are an old school Saturday Night Live fan you could go to the billy goat.

Thats a personal fav because I was raised on SNL and Belushi was hilarious. But theres millenium park, navy pier, and I think I mentioned this in the original post but i went to the Improv Olympic which is an amazing Comedy Club.

Hancock has a better observation deck than the Sears... yea, it's lower, but it's placement in the city allows better views.

Navy Pier is overrated, just a lot of tourism crap.

If you wanna do the whole 'Chicago Pizza' thing, I recommend Pizzaria Due or Lou Malnatis.

What's your point, Max?
I lived in Lincoln Park for 2 years, but I like being able to park a car within 3 blocks of my house...

I also did a couple jobs on the Pier... it's tourism crap.
