These United States [Wednesday, May 14, 2014]

"Welcome to Chicago!" Josh said, gesturing around, "where, as far as I know, it's done snowing for the year. But don't quote me on that. Chicago is the third most populous city in America after New York and LA and is also the only city, despite snowing nine months a year and having the wind blow all the time, in the Midwest worth visiting."

Josh.

"Seriously," he continued, "because screw Indiana especially." More than a couple passing people gave him the stink-eye for that. "There was this campaign stop and half of their counties were in different timezones and who runs a civilization like that and oh, yeah, Chicago. The city is an international hub for finance, commerce, industry, technology, telecommunications, and transportation, and if you're not on a direct flight from one side of the country to the other, the chances are high that you'll be cooling your heels in O'Hare International Airport, home of exactly five power outlets for your laptop."

Josh.

"The food culture of Chicago is pretty unique," he said. "They serve dish-deep pizza, which as someone who grew up outside of New York I am required to scoff at and call casserole, and hot dogs with pickles on them instead of mustard and sauerkraut as God intended--" Josh, "--so you guys can try some of that after we're finished touring some of the great architecture of the city. Get out your cameras, folks, this'll be as much fun as you're legally allowed to have in flyover country."

JOSH.

Oh, Kathy had no problems trying the Chicago dog (well, dogs, because she had more than one.) The poppy seed roll was weird, but the dash of celery salt made it really good!

Will grabbed a slice of pizza since it seemed imperative. And it was really darn good so he thought he'd made the right choice.

Yeul arbitrarily chose the pizza, since she didn't have an opinion on either option for which was better, and was pleased enough to find that it was good.

Okay, the food was a bit odd, but yes, Vider would eat both. And they turned out to be pretty tasty, surprisingly.
