I have the curse of needing numbers to back-up the artsy-fartsy. Marketing agents will come up with the most hair-brained ideas for a display and get all there bosses to fall in love with it. They come to us and we have to tell them that even though that idea would look nice, it would collapse under the weight of their product. Of course, they want to pack the largest possible amount of product on to the least expensive display. Then I have to stop being creative and spend my time crunching compression formulas and basis weight tables in order to convince them that it won't work.
I know sometimes that you mix your numbers up. Just look at that counting thread. I will be available for a fee. Backstage passes and a official signed copy of the CD by the band may be enough to persuade me to advise.

That could be Soldier Field on a Sunday. The guys with the question marks are wondering who the freaks in green and yellow are. The light bulb guy and his buddy sitting next to him just figured out how to disable the car of the Packer fan that parked next to them in the lot.
There usually are some frowny and yawning guys there too. Frowning because they are sitting by a packer backer and their girlfriend is the one yawning. (of course I know nothing about that)
I heard that chunks were falling out of the roof of the new stadium! THat's why we couldn't go in on a tour when we were in CHicago last time. At least thats what someone down there told me!
shoddy!

Get your teams straight, JD! The concrete was falling at Wrigley, and that was more of a political wrestling match between Da Mayor, Richy Daley and the Tribune Company. They have been at odds for years over a workable plan for expanding the park without ruining the character and ticking-off the neighborhood. No such problems at Soldier Field. It's a brand new inside with the same old outside. It looks like a spaceship landed in a Roman stadium.
it does look like that WFFR. I am glad there are no problems there, just at Wrigley. I think its great that the greatest sports shrine of them all- Lambeau Field never had problems with falling apart. We take good care of our stuff up here!

Smaller town, and they own the team so you don't have all the big city political games to deal with. That can be very nice. You see, Wrigley is in the hands of the Tribune Company, not Rich Daley. Soldier Field is the property of the Chicago Park District. Power struggles and controversy abound.
