Re: Chicago concert???

I have generally found better acoustics at Toyota Park, no beams to block the view, and a staff that has gone out of their way to make it a good experience for fans, especially, for me, the year after my accident. They want the concert their, and they act like it--I see that, and I think Jimmy feels...

Re: Charlie Sheen says "Love Me Some Jimmy Buffett!"

Well, all I can say is that Charlie has not hit rock bottom yet, and unfortunately, unless he is willing to get help and stick with it, he will be the next dead star we read about. He is all over the map with his ranting in that sorry excuse of an interview, and if it was not for the fact that he h...

Re: Any Kindle owners

The store Kathy speaks of is one of my favorite places, and, to support them, I will pay more than I would pay elsewhere, because of their service, and their great selection, and recommendations. Kathy-I buy a lot of books on my Kindle--cost and convenience, mainly. Things I know I want for professi...

Re: Any Kindle owners

Kathy--like you, I am a "book" person, but the convenience of the Kindle, especially for travel, can't be beat. And I use the dictionary feature a lot, but seldom, if ever go to an actual dictionary when reading a book. And the cheaper version should be fine! You were the one who actually...

Re: Chicago concert???

There is no reason to suspect that he will play any Chicago venue other than Toyota park--he clearly likes it; they like him, and it has worked well for him. Wonder if he will leave us at one date, or take us back to two, and if it is two, whether it will be a Thursday/Saturday as he did the first t...

Knowing Chicago in general is a major market and hub for his summer legs Whether or not he likes Toyota Park seems less relevant. Not to mention M'vill opening this spring. And he has to provide a tailgate opportunity for those who like to really go "all out" with their tailgate parties :...

Re: Keith Olbermann just resigned...

He began that section of the show by saying that he had been told that tonight would be his last broadcast. Reports seem to indicate that his departure had been in negotiation much of the week--clearly not his choice. Analysts on CNN said that Jeff Zucker had really protected Olbermann, and that Kei...
