I walked down State Street and indeed, it is a great street. This weekend was my first trip to Chicago. It's a beautiful town with its own unique flavor. We walked the downtown area up and down twice. We saw The Bean. We went to Navy Pier. The river is an odd color. The people are nice. The food is good (except the pizza). We got drunk in a neighborhood called Bucktown, which is outside the city center.

Between all that, we watched Mark and Cindy get married. I got to heave people into the air on chairs, which was also a thrill. I think people should do that more at work.
