I guess I'm out. I was only planning on staying out until 10 or so anyway, since everything got moved to the city starting at 8, count me out. I like you guys and all, but I'm not gonna drive into the city, find parking and all that BS, etc etc, just to leave in a couple hours. If this were a weekend or something the city is fine by me cause I can make a night out of it, but it's too much of a project. No idea when all this crap got moved into the city anyway. Speed, you're a nice guy, I like you, but I don't think I've met you at anything around here. In the meanttime, we have Kurt (who doesn't work the next day) pushing everything to the city, all the regulars at the FCP events like me, Jeff, Adam, and Gallo (and Jinky if he wasnt sick) plus the guest Brad who's STAYING in the suburbs, who I'm pretty sure all have to work the next day, potentially having to drag ourselves down there to satisfy this AFTER we already had tenative plans for the burbs anyway? Seems silly to me.
It's the same distance to go to Palos as it is to come to the city for you! And if we go to Adam's, we can't do anything till 10!It's also closer for brad to come to Chicago. It's like an hour drive to palos for him.Not to mention I said I'd do whatever, but I don't see how it's better for anyone but Adam to stay all the way out there.

I think it was said earlier that we would go to some pizza place by Adam's then to the facility.FWIW, it doesn't matter to me where. I work downtown so either is fine with me.

Come on dude. The city isn't the same. You know it isn't and so do I. Enough with what's closer for everyone by Mapquest miles or whatever. We've both lived in Chicago our entire lives, it's a huge project to get into the city, and then another project to maneuvor your way around when you get there, and you know it. Then you keep saying you'll do whatever, then throw in another closed thought at the end about how its better for everyone to just do it your way.Whatever, the whole spirit of the thing has been lost for me.If some people want to meet up for a bite and some drinks in the burbs tomorrow, someone who has my number text me. If not, we'll do it next time.

Sorry for going on tilt last night, not sure why. Just got all frustrated, really wasn't directed at anyone specific, even if it may have seemed like it. <3As for tonight... I honestly don't know what to do that will make everyone happy.I figure if we go to Adam's, certain people won't be able to go, and we won't have enough to play poker anyway. (5 with Chris, but he's not staying late.) If we go here, Chris is out totally... If we go to Schaumburg, Jeff might be in, lol.So I have no idea.Edit: I think poker is probably out either way, so lets just go to Schaumburg and save Brad all the driving around. Jeff said he'll come, he just needs a time. Anyone know a fun place out there? Nothing pops out in my mind.

Just an outsider looking in, but:1) I was born and raised in alsip. Hah.2) Chicubs does have a valid point in that "same distance" from burb to burb vs. burb to city is not equal.I drive from the west burbs to south burbs multiple times a month without blinking an eye for the any reason....but to drive burb to city (of the same or shorter "total" distance) I rarely attempt to do.Just a 2 cents thing here. Good luck with your guys' planning.If ur doing schaumburg I'd highly recommend fox and hound. It's right off of 90 for you city drivers and it's a very lively place with multi pool tables, a shuffleboard table, golden tee, checkers and so on.
