i take 90/94 south to work, and i pass directly in front of the sears tower. i looked at it longingly, then focused on the road again.
on one of the over passes by teh sears, someone had hung a gigantic american flag, and all the cars were passing underneath of it.
someone, i dont konw who, had taken the time to remind us all of something that we sometimes tend to forget.
i forget when a bum hassles me, or a 7-11 guy cops an attitude, or when a west sider flies his old countries flag in my face... or a northsider cuts me off on his bike...
its so easy to forget where we are sometimes..
but today, we were ALL passing underneath of the flag...
it was a real moment for me.
