Gallery Bookstore Closing

Anyone walking down Belmont Ave will have seen the Gallery Bookstore (website). They're now closing unfortunately and apparently have reached the stage where they're giving away a portion of their inventory. Oh well. I picked up the following volumes (mostly U.S. history):

The Problem With #UICDental 🙁 ???

• The problem with #UICDental: They only do what interests them 🙁 ...
• All they want to do is remove your teeth and replace them with implants 🙁
• Wrong place if you need your teeth cleaned (for me 1st time in 5 years) fuhgeddaboudit 🙁

Update: I was told when I went over there this afternoon, that I could not enter the building. Um, this is what I'm paying for with my 'health insurance'?

Chicago Pizza Is Real Pizza!

Oy, here we go again (link)...

Deepdish pizza (popular in Chicago & around the world) originally comes from the tradition of thick-crust pizza in Rome and elsewhere in Southern Italy. There they call it 'pizza rustica'.

Hai capito? :-)
