A Little Song
(tap tap tap) Is this thing on? Can you hear me back there? Good. Good. I'd like to leave you with a little song. Hit it, boys.
Now this could only happen to a gal like me
And only happen in a town like this:
So may I say to each of you most gratefully
As I throw each one of you a kiss...
This is my kind of town, Chicago is 
My kind of town, Chicago is
My kind of people, too,
People who smile at you
And each time I roam, Chicago is 
Calling me home, Chicago is 
Why I just brim like a cloud 
Its my kind of town.
My kind of town, Chicago is 
My kind of town, Chicago is 
My kind of razzmatazz 
And it has, all that jazz 
And each time I leave, Chicago is 
Tuggin' my sleeve, Chicago is 
The constant food, Chicago is 
The killer views, Chicago is 
One town that won't let you down 
Its my kind of town.

Thank you. Thank you very much. Try the veal and don't forget to tip your waitress.

You were saving the best for last huh..
Good Job!
Thanks, Sling. Just call me Ol' Blue Eyes.
Heh. Cool.
encore! encore!
You're all too kind.
Damn, I should've taken you to karaoke night.
Loved it! What a great way to show off the pics and give props.
VERY creative! Is there a second verse?
Thanks, CB. Nothin' I love more than singing standards in a smokey, uh, laptop...
Jon: That's all the verses to that song but as Chicago has been immortalized in song more than once, there may be more to come. But I'm going to wait until everyone has had a few more drinks.
That was GREEEEAAT! How is that possible that an internet tune could make a gal homesick?
BB: It's the C. The bouncy C.
Bravo!! Bravo!! (throwing flowers at your feet)....glad you had a wonderful time!
We missed you too, got to meet the "new"boys, have lots of food, and frolic in the ocean.
Brava, bravisimo! No, wait, I can't find that in the dictionary.
Bravo, Bravo!
great pics too!
Suz, thanks for the flowers. You need to email me with all the dish on the new boys.
Thank you, Anne. (blushes and drops a curtsey)
Lorraine,

Outstanding work in photobloggery!
Very fun.
I even like the picture of me.
Oh, that photo of you is a classic, Iwanski!
Glorious....all of it.
congrats on the award.....both blogs deserve it.
Okay, that was pretty darned "sweet!" (as YS would say).
Hey! You guys actuall DID do the Ferris Bueller art museum photo! Who did you get to take the photo?
Thanks, Rosie. I think it's fun that we give each other awards in Blogopia. Makes me giggle.
Jon: And speaking of awards, I shall now give you the Eagle Eye Award for Spotting a Spoof. I wondered if anyone would catch that. And ok, purists will say that our lineup isn't quite right and all that. To which I say, "Pft". Any way, we took 2 shots, one with me & Child, one with Daddy-o and then, yes...yes, I did, I photoshopped him in! Hee de hee!

"Hmm...am I early? Wait...is the Blogluck today or..."
(presses ear to door)
Nothing stirs within.
It is too, too early.
