HOOOORRRRAAAAYYYY!!

The Air & Water Show is in town!

That means no sleeping in and no midday naps. Who can sleep with fighter planes buzzing the lake starting at 10 in the morning? That means constant fly-bys every 2 minutes or so, when you least expect it, when the most important line in a TV show is being uttered, when your nerves are frazzled by the constant bombardment of sonic booms! Isn't that fun? That means an amazing amount of tourists stampeding to the Old Town neighborhood to crowd the beach and crane their necks to the sky, before running off to neighborhood restaurants and throwing down 9% Tips. I hope we get some spill over.

I guess it could be worse. It could be The Taste Of Chicago.
