Character Poll Anyone?

Scary thought--five 30-somethings (who act like they are still in college) driving around downtown Chicago in a mini-van! Go ahead and laugh, I am and will each time I think about it. Paul, Rumple, Sigler, and Stocklin are in Chicago for the weekend. They are so happy (giddy almost) that Stubbe is back (he was recently transfered from Denver to Chicago). So, what better way to celebrate than to have Stubbe kick the wife, daughter and new baby out of the house for the weekend so the boys can relive their "glory days."

Picture this, It is 7:00 p.m. in Section E of Johnson-Dietz, the boys are just waking up from a nap. It was a hard day of classes. The basketball games are on the TV, the radio is blaring. We think it is just the boys trying to be cool, now we know that Paul was just trying to hear to music. Stubbe is dancing somewhere, Stocklin is on the computer, and the rest are trying to lay low so that they do not top the weekly "Character Poll." No sign of Billy anywhere.

Fast forward 10 years, It is 7:00 p.m. in Chicago, the boys are just waking up from a nap. It was a hard day of "work" and travel. The basketball games are on the TV, the radio is blaring. We know that Paul is just trying to hear to music. Stubbe is dancing somewhere, Stocklin is on the computer, and the rest are trying to lay low so that they do not top the weekly "Character Poll." Again, no sign of Billy.

Not much has changed! That's why I love these guys! I hope you have fun, and please, Sigler, no phone calls at 4:00 a.m. when Stubbe is STILL dancing.
