    Since you are both from the Park Ridge/EP area, did you ever shop at or work at Thompon's Finer Foods in Park Ridge? It was on the corner of Cumberland and Touhy I worked there while in college.

    Nope, we shopped at Happy Foods on NW Hwy :) We used to go to Bailey's all the time over there but it's gone now. Boo!

    The area has certainly changed. I hardly recognize downtown Park Ridge anymore.
    I lost a bet...

    Yeah, It was Ear Wax Records, but they closed a few years ago, coudln't compete with the big markets, and there was not a huge demand for vinyl at the time. Seems like a small store can only compete if they specialize in Vinyl.

    You Still Live around here?
