On the Local Front
Why hasn't anyone mentioned the shuttering of Dirty Ralph's in DeKalb? Am I that out of the loop or is that not historic? Next thing you know, the Grotto will disappear. I hadn't been there in a while, but I miss It's Greek to Me, too. Damn.

And Marie's Lebanese. And Sgt. Pepper's. And The Junction Book Room. And Vagabond. And Mr. Crums. By the way, thanks a TON for the camera!!!!!! Way cool that now I can have it stay at school- you rock!
I hope it's gone underground...and Chris, how many cameras do you have? You're a regular Annie Leibowitz
Spelling? Jeanz? Fran Leibowitz? Anybody???
Aw, big sky, I miss all those.
Please tell me that PJ's Red Hots, Tom & Jerry's and Northern Lights live on somewhere.
I know Tom and Jerry's lives on at Harlem Irving Plaza mall. I miss Jitlada... and the Grotto.
No problemo on the camera - more room to rock in the basement.
Tom & Jerry's is still in the "new" spot by John St. and PJ's Red Hots has turned into the Courthouse Tavern in Sycamore. Northern Lights is long gone, too, since there's a Border's AND Barnes and Noble in DeKalb now.
I'll always look back fondly on my days of terrorizing and prank calling Ralph's.
