50 Things I'll Miss About Chicago -->
Thing 29:
Hearing "I'm Peter Francis Geraci" (Ge-RAAAY-ci) in every other commercial.
Oh I know ... I could spend multiple days and assign one for 773-202-Lu-na (special kudos to them for giving many locals their first acting jobs ... and unkudos to many of those acting in them for conveying so transparently that it *was* their first acting job) and another day to the Carpet and Blind Empire folks and one as a tribute to Mooooooooo and Oink!, but I'm just going to mention them all right here, and conclude that it's the info-tapes for Chapter 7 and 13 bankruptcy that I'll miss the most.
COUNTER: In a perfect world, the move to Florida would coincide with some way to shake my TV addiction such that ads like these wouldn't be embedded in my brain ... but chances are I'm going to be exposed to something very local and very homemade that will mimic these Chicago classic commercials.
