The movies in the park,
a much better idea, I think, than the Grant Park movie, occurs all over
the city throughout the summer at various parks. It looks like a nice
system, rear projection, and smaller parks make it much easier to see.
And last night being at Churchill Field Park in Wicker Park/Bucktown, well,
it was good. Helps that it's in everyone else's backyard. Princess
Bride is a great movie, even better with friends. I like the outdoor
atmosphere, I feel like it's conducive to comments, involvement, stuff
like clapping during the good scenes, audible reactions from the audience.
Anyway, makes me wonder if there's more next year that are in my neck of
the woods. Played some beer schtick afterwards, but without the beer for
me, I had to drive home. No sushi tonight, getting my favorite chinese
food, Hong Kong Chicken from Plum Garden when I get to Woodstock. Got some
computer stuff to do out there as well.
