OK, so Chicago is twirling around,

[question everything]

but putting White Sox hats on the lions in front of the Art Institute? This is bordering on sacrilege.

Yes, of course we took our pictures standing in front of it :evilgrin:

1. Almost as much fun as the Three-peat? I hope they kick the Astros asses.

[question everything]

3. Yesterday had brunch at a very popular and busy place

(Lou Mitchell) and a very brave soul was just finishing wearing an Astros jersey :evilgrin:

edit for some spelling correction

2. Chicago has decades of pent-up enthusiasm to vent

I thought they are cute. Did they really get a hat on the Picasso statue of the buzzardy thing?

4. Me thinks your thinking of two different statues...

well...maybe 3.

There is a pair of lions in front of the Art Institute.

The Picasso sculpture you speak of is in the same vicinity...but not the same.

What is it anyway. I visited Chicago a few weeks ago. My Uncle told me to meet him in front of that sculpture. I sat there for an hour staring at it. I think it's a dragon. But my Uncle says everybody sees it different. He thinks it's an elephant.

5. I'm thinking of the correct statues, I heard a rumor that the Picasso

which I think looks sort of like a buzzard, has had a sox hat put on it as well.

6. They put decorations on the lions at Christmas time.

Go White Sox!

7. If I'm not mistaken, they put Bears hats on the Art Institute lions

for Super Bowl XX.

8. You want to talk about sacrilage, what about Soldier Field???

It looks like a freakin' UFO crash-landed on the stadium. What's a couple of hats on the lions?? :-)
