Hey, Despair. What happened to Milwaukee? It looks like it got a buzz-cut. I went up there, and the tallest building I saw was shorter than some of our park sculptures! Milwaukeeans scared of heights?

heh,

yea, milwaukees downtown is pretty small when compared to the likes of Chicago...

Well, We have that FirstStar bank building near the lake, thats a tallest in the Milwaukee. Our own skyscraper But compared to Sears tower, its a midget

Here is the situation: we just FINALLY got confirmation from the school in Japan for our trips (me for the year, them for a month). However, of course, tickets for when we need them most - going out of Omaha, NE on Friday May 31st and arriving in Japan on June 1st, are sold out. Our next attempt is going to be to try to get tickets leaving as late on Thursday as possible, have a layover in Chicago probably, and then take of Friday from Chicago for the rest of the trip.

Our layover in Chicago is going to be the questionable part. It could be from like 6-7 hours, or it could be just a couple of hours. If the layover ends up being long enough that we would need to get a hotel room, is there anyone living near enough to the airport that would be willing to let us crash there? Or, if it just a shorter airport, maybe someone who lives in the area would like to meet and just hang for a bit to help us kill some time. Go get some drinks or something. ^_^

I won't know until tomorrow if we're even going to have a layover in Chicago, but I thought I'd ask and see if there were any kind souls out there in case we could use a bit of help.

You live in Nebraska?
