On my way out of Tom's Seafood (Cleveland) - this was the only thing stuck on (one of) the double glass doors.

Hi,

A few months ago I was driving in Evanston, a shiny black Magnum station wagon was in front. The plate stated: STAR CHEF.

Does anybody know who this person may be? Obviously they want to be known or they would gone for random letter and digits.

Regards,

Was is STR CHEF or STAR CHF? Just wondering because you can only have 7 characters on an IL vanity plate.

Hi,

It might have been STR CHEF. It was a few months ago. If I didn't have to turn, I would have had more time to take a picture.

Regards,

Does anyone use flickr to post pictures? Whenever I plug in the url they give me, it doesn't come up. Is anyone else having this problem?

It's a little tricky, Pie lady. Here's a link to a prior discussion. More help with posting photos, please

With the changes in Flickr, that may no longer be current. Here's how I do it.

1) Go to "view all sizes" (under "Actions")

2) Open the small or medium (500) size

3) Right click and go down to "View image info" and left click

4) A page of gobbedly gook will open up but one part will be highlighted (it will end in jpeg). Copy that part.

5) Take the part you've copied and past it between the Img tags in your posting.

Seems complicated, but really not too bad.

Either this is one seriously diversified business, or they're offering a very unique service:

But wait, there's more - it ends up the other half of building is a part of this same business:

Jim: To my surprise, checking IMDB, there actually is a movie called American Meat. But (I ask non-rhetorically, and in actual search of an answer), what do you suppose Six Organs of Admittance means? It's not a title on IMDB, and I can't put together what it would be the mistaken (misspelled, botched, comically screwed-up) version of.
