So, when you use the word "spatula", is that a thing that will flip pancakes, or a rubber thing that will scrape the bowl of chocolate cake batter?

But anyway --- do you have any interest in taking a train out to the western burbs? On a weekend, I could pick you up at the train station (we'd have to brandish a liseuse, to recognize each other) and give you a tour of the world's still biggest operating partical accelerator (http://www.fnal.gov) . We have buffalo and prairie grasses/flowers on site too, if that interests you more than the electronics.

And then a visit to what *I* consider the best pizza around - Pal Joey's in West Chicago. I believe Cthulhu has said he knows their pizza.

Or, to the local restaurant here that serves buffalo burgers, and other sorts of strange meats, if that appeals to you more. (Um, I order the ordinary burger, thank you very much.)
