Spoken Like A True Chicagoan
Overheard at the office:

"Christmas is Sunday, right?"

"Yes."

"The Bears game is on at 4:10 p.m."

6. Ellen, laugh if you want, but Mr. Wonderful and
myself had our Christmas dinner at 2:30 pm. I didn't want to have to wash dishes, etc during "Da Bears" game.

I'm in seventh heaven right now!! Love the Bears!!!
