Khalil Mack Makes Everything Better, Including Pizza
I walked down my block towards the Blue line in my Trubisky jersey yesterday on my way to meet the Grahamdogger and crew at Kroll’s South Loop before the Bears game.

Bar Hopping Through Brookfield
Met Matty D; our boy Joyce and their buddy Andy – who was celebrating his 24th birthday – out at Cordial Inn on a biblically rainy Tuesday night for tall Jack & Cokes, beer and garlic pizza. Oh, and I got one of the famous Cordial cheeseburgers. Look how happy it makes Mad Dawg: Andy…

Attended A Dog’s Birthday Party at River Shannon and Enjoyed Every Minute
