Like that Duke Ellington song, a Spook "don't get around that much" to Andersonville bars, but the time that I have spread my magic to Hopeleaf, I've found it almost impossible to steal cool beer glasses out of there! But I was talking to a good friend of mine who owns a public drinking house( shall remain nameless) in Logan Square( so he know longer steals glasses, except one from the Map Room), told me that actaully bars have to give them too you if you ask? Is this true?

p.s the place next door to the Hopeleaf( with the blue sign in the picture above) has a great juke Box and a cooler( well wierdo) crowd then all the birkenstock wearing types who poss at the HopLeaf
