Just got back from seeing some comedy. Patton Oswalt is berry funny.
We had two awesome cab drivers tonight. The first one was this Russian guy who had decorated his cab with all the countries of NATO (?) plus the flags of Chicago and Illinois. He was Russian and started saying stuff like “Fuck Russia, fuck Iran, fuck Syria” etc. and then something about Hamas. Then I went through and tried to guess all the flags.
Our other cab driver talked at length about the unions and how much better it was before people had to be forced to shop at “fucking Wal-Mart,” but then said Joe MacCarthy was a “stand-up guy” and a “good American.” It was awesome. He was fifty, and stoned. Out of his mind.
Between these two cab rides and the comedy, we went to this Mexican place for margaritas and tacos and slow service but it was a good time.
Heart Chicago.
COMEDIANS OF COMEDY!!!!
They are coming here and I am going to try to get tickets.
