So instead of bellyaching, I'll offer up a little gift. Please enjoy the following bonbon -- a quickie arrangement assembled by me and me alone (not Mr. Shore, to whom I apologize in advance): Gondorian Merry Gentlemen.
Similar silly efforts from years past are linked below. Enjoy with a bit of holiday cheer ... they may go down smoother that way. :)
Back soon with more Chicago news.
