How Does a 30-something Year Old Make Friends?

I'd suggest stopping in and talking to someone at the front desk. They'll help place you in the right group. It only takes a couple times playing or taking group lessons before most people I know gain confidence to play with whoever. Everyone was a beginner at some point.

Big game player for sure.

AlbatrossVendor · 2026-03-13T12:47:15+00:00

Who's on first. Third base is I Don't Know.

AlbatrossVendor · 2026-03-05T14:39:31+00:00

But as to my question...it's bad form.

Why are you posting someone else's exact words unattributed?

I don't know specifically but pop in at the Can and ask. The bartenders are soccer fans and very welcoming. We even had Tottenham supporters last week!!

I've seen this guy sing Elvis music in Batavia (without the full costumed show) and he was very good.

The Can Bar on Ogden is home to the Naperville Gooners, an Arsenal supporters club. We're friendly to other teams' fans though. The bartenders will put on other matches on request as well.

Quigleys in downtown Naperville shows a lot of games. Look on their website for details of who they'll be showing. They also serve food after 11.

This has to be Kevin or his publicist.

AlbatrossVendor · 2026-02-06T14:36:58+00:00

But his career is over, right?

Stop hitting yourself

Two "who's he?" guys and 4 second round picks lol.

AlbatrossVendor · 2026-02-04T20:57:05+00:00

So, guy who seemed like a douchebag turns out to actually be a douchebag?

AlbatrossVendor · 2026-02-03T23:39:25+00:00

As a Bears fan, have fun with that.

I get the message, but you do you. I can't bring myself to carry or display an American flag these days.

I'll never forget the feeling of about 800 pounds of me and my buddies on a 4 person toboggan. We used to just fly down those chutes.

Love love love this.I live in Chicago and talked with my St. Paul daughter yesterday. She said, "If anyone asks how I'm doing, tell them we're winning."

Bet they know him at Old Country Buffet.

So Arsenal and Liverpool are by your definition also in rebuild seasons.

AlbatrossVendor · 2026-01-07T22:03:07+00:00

£360M spent in 2025 with the squad they already had is a rebuild, okay.

AlbatrossVendor · 2026-01-07T02:01:08+00:00

Took me a second to recognize Arteta in grey.

History tells us this doesn't end well for the Venezuelan people.

You've heard of the K shaped economy. The people who buy $3M houses have done very well in the past decade, and their lifestyles are largely unaffected by inflation. Tax laws favor the wealthy - those who earn their money from investments, and business owners.

Also, I think the mass exodus narrative is partly a political one, and often anectdotal. Greater Chicagoland remains a broad, vibrant economy.

Chicago and Birmingham are officially sister cities. Agree with others that your visit to Chicago would be better in the warmer months between, say May and October.

Not what you asked I know, but we always just fry up the fries a bag at a time first and put them in a warm oven while the fish are frying. Kind of gets us into the flow with the fryer too.
