FB—That’s “Midway Airport” in Chicago. Cicero Avenue is the N-S street along its front (E) side and 63rd Street runs E-W along its S side. I drive by on 55th Street, its N side, to and from my dentist…. A well-placed comma would have helped.(BTW, “Fresh” looks tasty.)
I was once the recipient of comically faulty high-altitude cooking instructions, but I never stole a malaria net. I did steal a tragically faulty aluminum hat.
Re: “Instructions” on the Blog. I have read the opposite. You need to keep your glottis open. If not, straining puts excessive pressure on your heart which could lead to a heart attack. The article said that many have died “straining at stool.” The author claimed that Elvis Presley and Judy Garland had died that way. Who am I to question him? So now, this is my prime rule of living: ALWAYS KEEP YOUR GLOTTIS OPEN. It has gotten me into trouble occasionally, and I’ve been told more than once, “Shut your glottis, you idiot,” still, I have never had a heart attack.

Tragically faulty high altitude instructions are nothing to sneeze at!

Are those the x-ray glasses that were advertised on the backs of comic books? Personally I ordered the Sea Monkeys.

I seldom need instructions when cooking, so there.

Very interesting pic of Charlie Chaplin on the blog. He looks more like a suave Hollywood hunk than the funnyman we know him as.
