Some of us don't chill our beer.I've just discovered that my hotel in Chicago next week has what it calls an English pub attached. But no mention of what temperature it sells the beer at. Or even what beer it sells, come to that. Would it be the Club Quarters Hotel, Central Loop? If so it was where I stayed, just one night and I eat in the "English Pub" I was drinking IPA at the time and they did serve it chilled. It had the fastest internet of any hotel I have every stayed at. |

Nice simple question, I thought. But the answer turns out to be 'yes AND no'.Would it be the Club Quarters Hotel, Central Loop?Some of us don't chill our beer.I've just discovered that my hotel in Chicago next week has what it calls an English pub attached. But no mention of what temperature it sells the beer at. Or even what beer it sells, come to that. It's at the same address, but it seems to be known simply as The Central Loop Hotel these days - that's what I booked it under. Primary attraction - just one bag-dragging block from Monroe station on the Blue Line from O'Hare. |

Down early today. . . It always bothers me when they catch me out with an early start. It usually means it will be a long outage and I will run out of work. :) . . But I have my fingers crossed anyway .... Stephen < shrug > |

Jord does your Roomba do this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mk4XB2wZqF4 |

No, as I don't have cats anymore. Nor do I specifically have a Roomba. I was talking about the bots Dr Who Fan was talking about, and that you loving complain about each time they hit your toes. :) |

Would it be the Club Quarters Hotel, Central Loop?Yes, it is. Did you know that the street it's on (West Adams Street) is the official start of US Route 66? I don't think the hotel is bothered. First image of Chicago, this morning, just along the street: (note the rest of the wedding party dotted along the brownstone) This is the backdrop they wanted for their wedding photos: |

That is what us Chi-towners call "THE CANYON" or the more common naming of The Financial District. Enjoy your stay in the Windy City! |

Wanted to see the graphs at Haveland but the site appears down now for a couple of hours. Anyone else have better luck? Have the assimilators and deleters finally peaked and started heading downward? |

I think Seti has gone down. At least the Website has become unresponsive to me. So I think I will When in danger, Respectfully, Tom ;) ps. Seems to have bounced back. |

With less then 24 hours before the weekly outrage to commence I am warming up the thread for the possibility of hair burning and moon howling. Let's hope we don't have to go that extreme. |

Thank you for providing those long linear sunshades over the main streets, but can you do something about the noise? |

Isn't everyone in Chicago at the BOINC Workshop?Even though there will be ongoing presentations, I suspect at least one person will be checking constantly. I'm not calling anyone out, I'm just saying N>0. I can see why they call them canyons, but fortunately it's not living up to the 'windy' bit right now. Thank you for providing those long linear sunshades over the main streets, but can you do something about the noise?Perhaps I've gotten numb to the noise, but I do find some spots downtown can be relatively peaceful and quiet. Great pictures, by the way! |
