Damn Nuck, I just now saw this, that's what happens when you go away for a few days and have hundreds of emails download at once.
Worth it?
He omitted; an outstanding bottle of scotch, kicking each other's butt across a decrepit 6 ft. coin operated pool table, Nuck 12 / Mike 11 or something like that, juke box, he did mention Wendy, forgot the crab legs, buying knock off gym shoes in a one off packaging and deliver store, constantly having to tell me where my keys were, more shots of scotch, the owner and Mr. Nuck slipping each other business cards, smooth... a couple of hours facing off a NAD M5 vs. Rega Saturn, oops he did mention those, my bad, one of us was not hung over, good lord, watching a pro ripping steel from concrete with a mechanical Tyrannosaurus Rex, and ending a real cool get together with a few beers while ogling (politely) one very hot bartender next door to Holm Audio
Last but not least, there will be a sequel.
Seriously, I had other business in Chicago and hooking up with Nuck worked out time wise, but I would drive 1,000 miles to hook up again. He's good people. Chicago slang.
