Understatement

Paul, of Thoughts Of A Regular Guy, refers to himself as a "Regular Guy". Well, if he were, or rather, if the majority of men in the country were like him, this country would be a fantastic place.

My current business travel brought me to Chicago. I have to say I really like this city. The music is great, the food is amazing, and the people are extremely friendly. Last night, I had the high honor of getting to hang out with Paul.

We had dinner at Ballo, which was the single best Italian food I have ever had in my entire life. The wait staff looked like they had just walked off of the set of The Sopranos. I even commented during dinner that our waiter looked like he should be wearing more rings. And nothing goes with dinner like great conversation with a very cool person.

Then Paul showed me around Chicago. He drives a convertible, so I was able to get some great pics, which will be posted soon, along with my NASA pics on my trip to Florida. We did the Batman / Dresden tour, and I got to see a lot of places where Dark Knight was filmed, and some of the more memorable locations mentioned in The Dresden File books.

All in all, I had a great time. Paul is a great guy, and I hereby state that he needs to update the title of his blog. Regular guy... that is a major understatement.

Thanks again, Paul.
