Hey BBS -

Are you flying in or driving? If you're driving you could have a bunch of mini bashes along the way :biggrin:.

parrothead · Dec 9, 2008

I am free, let's plan a date. Any date is fine.

Bill-Chicago · Dec 9, 2008

How about 2am on the 22nd.

We can cuddle

Just spoke to Greg, looking forward to setting something up and meeting you, Derek.

I be flying, driving would only put in Chicago for 1 day pretty much and if we deglaze along the way I probably would take two weeks.:biggrin:

At 2am on the 22nd, I plan on cuddling with an SIU alum or two :twisted:

Tuesday the 23rd sounds good to me!

Ron_L · Dec 9, 2008

So far I am open...

Bill-Chicago · Dec 10, 2008

I'll be working on the 23rd, but I can always try and meat up with the party already started.

Don't let my plans interfer with the bigger picture.

I don't mind showing up later for sloppy seconds.

If I were you guys I'd ask what he means by "MEAT UP." :shock:

We also need to pick a place. Where is your base when you are home? We can try to get something centrally located. If I remember right, you are a south sider.

Southside is my base, but I am equally in the southburbs visting my friends and family! You guys pick the place, pizza sounds awesome, can't think of the last time I had real pizza.

parrothead · Dec 11, 2008

My first thought on pizza would be cemino's north of Joliet. It used to be aurelio's in a different location. They also have the online trivia game we can play. Family type pizza joint with a bar. Let us know if that is too far for you.

Located here. http://local.yahoo.com/info-17284714-cemeno-s-pizza-joliet

They don't have their own website apparently, and we can easily go further east toward you.

Steph's got a brand new WSM waiting for him in Chicago....

Make him cook for YOU guys! :twisted:

I was thinking Aurelio's chain too Greg, but as soon as I saw the location, I defaulted to a South Side institution of old, Chesdan's.

The location in Shorewood is the son of the original South Sider:

Reviews on site indicate not as good as original

I guess we should find whether he wants deep dish or thin.
