Message cptnspeed1 11:05 Wed 7/31/2013 Don’t tell everyone...how am I going to get the Vietnamese Speedway ALL FOR MYSELF?? Well you could at least have told them it was Thursday so they wouldn’t go Tuesday and find out it was Wednesday. Come on, work with me here.

Message TheAlum beers 7164 º places 10 º 15:16 Wed 7/31/2013 Me and Jess usually skip town early and/or hit Vintage for brunch. This sounds more likely. Nice opp to meet up. I suggest it to others as well

We are debating when we should be leaving Chicago to make it up in time for it Dexter’s opens at 11. But that doesn’t mean all the beers are on then. I don’t think special stuff was brought out till the evening last year.
