We don't have an specific plans for after dinner on Saturday.  Navy
Pier is not too far away, it is open admission for most of the pier,
with some carnival stuff and such which you have to pay for.  So I see
no reason (except weather, which should be good) why we can't all go
to Navy Pier and wander around, have some desert, and watch the fireworks.

He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my
contempt.  He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the
spinal cord would fully suffice.  This disgrace to civilization should be
done away with at once.
