You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

The explosive record-breaking event was held in Ladeuzeplein square in Leuven, Belgium.

who cleaned it up?

They were giving away cute little glass bottles of coke across the street from the entrance to the Long Beach Grand Prix. You were not allowed to bring glass bottles into the race confines. By the end of the day the sidewalks surrounding the trash cans near the entrance were coated with a thick layer of discarded coke. It was nasty.

Thinking things through is *hard*.

Ann, that's a ferret.

The pictures are just surreal - you've got everyone in blue ponchos, with rows and rows of Coke bottles spewing Coke into the air....

Yet oddly beautiful.

I know some Buffistas know of hotels in downtown Chicago that aren't terribly expensive. Scola, possibly? My sister and I are getting stuck planning a bachelorette party.

in total wah wah wah news. I was hoping to get baseball tix for Memorial Day weekend, but no such luck. Now I need a plan for entertainment - when does Speed Racer open?

The Best Western Grant Park and River North hotels are both in the $150 range, definitely affordable for downtown.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Speed Racer opens May 9.

hmm - it should still be open, right? Maybe that and a trip to the big park with friends.

lunch was unsatisfying - I should have had more salad and less rice.

both in the $150 range

I paid about that amount to stay at the Chicago Comfort Inn last year. Plus, it had complimentary breakfast with a Belgian waffle maker!
