Our long lost native son, fredmartens, will be in town to observe the competition between the Chicago Cubs and Florida Marlins at the former Weeghman Park, at the corner of Clark and Addison Streets on Saturday, August 27. He has assented to allow me to advise the FT world that he will be available after the confrontation, for potent potables and victuals. The contest will commence at 3:05 p.m. Feel at liberty to post your suggestions for the post-contest activities (approximately 6:00 p.m.) here.
