Thinking about all the good food you’re going to cook/eat. JK.

That totally sucks. I am basically still up from Midnight last night (or this morning).

If he comes over to borrow a cup of sugar don’t turn your back to him.

Great book, love the opening where they describe how much of America's currency of the time belonged to "The Commodore".

Funny story: I've been through all the homes of the NY Robber Barons in Newport, RI, especially Vanderbilt's "The Breakers". Fast forward a 30 years ago and there I am in Lake Geneva, WI which bills itself as the "Newport of the West", as some of the Chicago wealthy had summer homes, but these were more like summer cottages. When I saw the sign, I doubled over in hysterical laughter, "Oh excuse me, where is The Breakers? The Elms? The Marble House?" Yeah, a lot of Cheeseheads found my questions unsettling.

Don't get me wrong, Lake Geneva is a wonderful and beautiful place, it's just no Newport. And then there's Chicago proper, a cute city with a serious case of Manhattan Envy. They call their theater district, "Broadway in Chicago", yeah all 4 or 5 theaters of it...

Damn Mike, as soon as I saw the timestamp on this post I said, "Chit, not again!" Hang in there.

You could try the Roccus Sleep Induction Technique and cue up some boring documentary program with a monotone narrator on the TV. Put the recliner back and actually try to watch it. I usually don't get much past the opening credits...
