today was leaving work @ Aon Bldg, waiting to pay parking ticket and i did a double take - apparently walked past mayor daley in doing so
there was never a chance to say 'hey big up f#&*$ yeah!!!" 'love this city, great job' or just nod approvingly, ast they were too engrossed in (very low, muted) discussion.
but still. quite cool.
