hey Keith, to followup on Bob from Chicago’s pizza post about Pequod’s, it’s not your deep dish Chiacago style type of place. They’re known for their pan pizza. It has a relatively nice amount of crust on it and they literally burn the cheese around the edges. Its a love it/hate it type of taste and style. Personally, it’s some of the best pizza in the city.
Thanks for the great chat as usual. Couple follow-up thoughts:
1) Ayinger’s Celebrator is also a terrific doppelbock; you should definitely try it if you get a chance. Strong, too, of course.
2) Your analysis of college majors was dead on, and something too few people understand, I think; I can’t count the number of times people asked me what I would do with my Classics major, but it prepares people just as well as politics, history, econ, etc. In most cases, it will be the analytical (and other) skills you learn, not the specific nuggets of information, which are important in later life.
And a quick fact to back up your assertion about the majority of Harvard/Princeton/Yale/Stanford students being wealthy – Princeton, for one, gave out financial aid to 54% of its latest incoming class; the vast majority of those obviously make under $100k a year.
Keith,
Could you give me your opinion of Mat Gamel? What is his ceiling and will he stick at 3rd base or is he destined for the outfield?
Thanks!
I suppose I’ll catch up on it sometime tonight.
Stupid proxy servers.

I’ll buy next time you’re in the Windy City.
