And that's the only kind of ice cream truck I roll with...

Jess, you were right. The public did in fact demand an update. Life moves fast here in the big city and it gets really busy. These pictures are from additional adventures downtown with fellow transfer students and to the outlet mall with my new friend Jorge*. In the coming days, I will make two trips to New York (the REAL big city) and hopefully will have much to report. Ma, I promise the suit is not plain black.

*I have renamed Jorge to protect him from you freaks.

My new suit for interviews. It's hard to tell, but it's not actually a black suit. Posted by Picasa

Still hard to see - but it's a grey and black pattern. A pattern, Ma. Posted by Picasa

I tried to get tour. I told them I did research on carbon and carbon related interests over the summer. They called security. Posted by Picasa

Too bad it's the seat of a worldwide push of hypocrisy and filthy, filthy lies. Oh, I mean, pretty church. Posted by Picasa

By crossing this bridge, you enter into a sore of Chicago that few can survive: the Magnificent Mile. Posted by Picasa

It's a truck. No, it's a billboard. No... Posted by Picasa

Any comments on the constitutionality of this sign? Any James Tsai's out there have some policy arguments? Posted by Picasa

The flags signal the begining of the Magnificent Mile and lure the hordes to their credit-related destruction. Posted by Picasa

I mean, its probably true, but still... Posted by Picasa

Twelve newspapers, ten of them gossip papers (11 if you count the WSJ). Posted by Picasa

The hordes demand brand names! They demand it! Posted by Picasa

American consumerism at it finest. Literally over a mile of over-priced crap. Posted by Picasa

People out here are really all about saving the earth. This sprinkler was great - you can limit its rotation so that it doesn't water the sidewalk. Posted by Picasa

Problem with becoming an attorney: what the hell did they mean by this? Are there any customary usages in the bridge building industry to imply what the parties meant? Will I ever be interesting to a non-lawyer again? Posted by Picasa

Look! Art! Posted by Picasa

We ventured to the downtown area to see a movie. View from the parking structure during the day. Posted by Picasa

Meet Jorge, a fellow transfer student. I was originally going to name him George, but it turns out there is actually a transfer student named George (and he is not 65). Jorge is sad that parking is so expensive in the city. Posted by Picasa

Jorge begins to compeletly lose it over the parking prices. We nearly miss the movie. Posted by Picasa

Pictures are crap this round, but this building is crooked. On purpose..; Posted by Picasa

When I think of eyelid surgery, I totally think of puppies too. (As your attorney, I advise you to never get eyelid surgery.) Posted by Picasa

Extra long table at dinner. Posted by Picasa

Look at the nasty people put their feet in the dirty stream of water. No wonder we are all going to die of some communicable disease. Posted by Picasa
