SAAB Story....boo hoo

My friggin' SAAB passed out again for the second time in two weeks. This time it left me sittin' in the middle of Halsted just south of Roosevelt. Lots of unhappy folks behind me giving me the HORN! Oh well, guess it could have been worse; could have stalled on the Dan Ryan! I think it might be time to go buy a Prius!

Bye, bye, off we go to the SAAB mechanic. I hitched a ride to the office; got to ride up high and chat with the tow truck driver about how many SAAB's he picks up around the city. I went boo hoo........

East 75th Street

Saw this cool retro BBQ joint, Lem's, on East 75th Street a few blocks from the Dan Ryan. I'm sure it's tastee -

A few blocks down from Lem's BBQ is Soul Vegetarian East on 75th and South Indiana. Great veggie food and the Eternity all natural deli and juice bar next door serves up some killer soft serve soy ice cream! Don't miss it!
