Is that painting from the movie Portrait of Dorian Gray?

My cousin is regional manager of Potbelly, but on the West Coast.

yeah its the movie painting. Was super excited to see it in person. Wished I had taken a pic of one of Albrights other paintings they had that was quite similar. A spooky door with a decrepid old hand reaching from off painting.


Yeah i think potbellys is more of a lunch kind of place. They did play some great music though! Heard Neil Young's "The Loner"

Potbelly is usually in busy urban areas and caters to office workers on lunch with limited time. I ate there once-- eh. Neither loved nor was offended by it.

One thing is they don't accept tips. Company policy. My cousin use to work for Starbucks and says he doesn't think they should accept tips either. I said "Why not?" and he said "They don't bring your coffee and food to you." Just thought that interesting as he used to be an employee. Though he was management.

I want to hear about your Wrigley experience... Maybe it was because I was 6 years old the first time I walked into the place, but it has been a shrine to me my entire life. How did it feel walking in and seeing the early blooming ivy?

Cheers,

Jim

No one talks about the beautiful U.S. Cellular field on the other wonderful side of the city.

This was my third time to Wrigley but first in 15 years. My wife expected a bit more out of it but i enjoyed it. It was interesting that they still used the old scoreboard. It was great to think of all the events that had happen there. Now I want to see Fenway!

I went to this stadium last year at the National and was severely disappointed. Mostly because the seats fit half a human and legroom is nil and the angle is weird to actually watch the game.

But, if you like commercials being blasted at you at full volume between every pitch, this is a great place to see a game.
