Name Dropping

I know name dropping's generally considered kind of hokey, but, hey, I grew to adulthood in Chicago, the most connected city in the country, and this is just too exciting.

My friend from U of I college days, Jim McManus, made it to the final table at the 2006 World Poker Tour and will be playing on the Travel Channel tomorrow evening. If you watch, he’s the bald one with sunglasses and a bad attitude.

I know it’s not Floyd Landis or Tiger Woods, but, hey, it IS kind of exciting! Go, Jim!
