Well honesly Fed Up Capitilism works for me at the momment, but I'm one of the lucky ones and you might not be well read on Marx, but hopefully you are reading often. Did you hear that statistic that that the average American reads only 8 minutes a day, but watches 3 hours 4 hours of TV? Also I'm concerned with the long term effects of "capitilism" if you call George Bush and Daley "capitalist". This Havard dude name Paul Kennedy wrote a book called Decline of the Empire. Guess "who" he was talking about? With that said,I think I might stick to Chop House,Gene and Georgetti, etc for stakes. When I pay for a stake, I want a stake night, night a bite of one on a huge plate, yall feel me?

"Capitilism" is so great. Good food (like communist nations like Vietnam, China, and Cuba don't have awesome cuisines or anything) AND great education (in spelling, for instance). What can possibly beat it?

the steak does sound excellant. This is what makes capitilism great the food. No spook I am not well read on marx but the inflated prices at tru are worth the experiance. I even liked Gejas last time I was there.

I can't wait for "The Bickersons 2007" podcast starring Ferdy and Spook.

Enjoy your Kobe. Be sure to pack leftovers from the bread basket for the homeless in Logan Square, just in case that God you're not sure doesn't exist takes brownie points off your balance sheet.

Ferdy, I totally expect you to feel that my views are convolutedly insane and I understand why you, as would most Americans, feel this way My only suggestion would be for you to get a copt of "Marx for Beginners", its simplistic and it has pictures! Noel

Spook - Your beliefs are so convolutedly insane, I'm honored you don't believe in me. Makes my life somehow more worth living.

Ferdy, the only thing I can make out of your last comment is you've never read Marx, no surprise there cowgirl- and I don't believe for one micro seconded that you have "dedicated" your life to a single thing except being another suburban liberal house wife. Mean while the revolution continues.....

Sorry, but what is a "mashed & CORKED" potato? To me, something corky or corked has gone off. So the description doesn't sound particularly appetizing. anyone?

Ah Spook, revealed as the inflammatory, bored hypocrite you are. You can do what you want, but the rest of us have to dedicate our lives and energies 24/7 to worthy causes you assign.

Navigation is an abstract mess! Simple, obvious information is nowhere to be found! Unnecessary animations take forever zipping and zooming about! No one on the web is safe.... WHEN AMATEUR FLASH DESIGNERS ATTACK!!!!!

Ferdy, I’m not a communist. I’m more of a Marxist- agnostic, socialist. So I feel that every one should be able to eat Kobe or a Chop House steak, including me. True, competition and natural ability should mean that some people will be able to eat Kobe a lot more frequently, but every one should eat. Hope that helps, Noel

Now Spook, how can a hero of the downtrodden possibly want to go to a restaurant where they serve obscenely expensive Kobe beef? I think you should take all that money you would have spent at Tru and buy everyone at the Christian Industrial League a Big Mac!

If It takes more than 35 seconds for me to get to the address section of their webpage then I'm not interested! I don't care that they are a "let us entertain you" resturant! Where the F#ck is the joint!?!
