I think the only thing we learned about the virus is the fact that we haven't learned anything at all. Once the hospital icu beds, respirators and personal protection stuff got under control (wonder how much was spent on converting McCormick place just to shut it down) the only thing that seems to help is the "social distanting" and masks. So basically the less people you come in contact with, the better odds you'll have running around the house in your underware for many days to come. Plus I have two problems with this place... 1) How come a place called "Vienna Beef" serves the worst tasting beef sandwiches? The ones out of roach infested Korean owned hot dog stands have a better flavor and texture. 2) When we went for the last "closure", I thought they were being forced out due to that bit with the elston/damen intersection thing. Now it seems they are building a putting range on the property? So they just basically sold out to the highest bidder, right? So although I have fond memories of Kerman carrying around a 1990's cell phone in the 21st century and Michelle flashing her boobs at him everytime he turned his back to her, I really am not shedding any tears this time around with them closing. -bruce bje@ripco.com
