Since I was in Chicago this holiday weekend, why not do a show involving the Windy City, including TV and film scores to The Untouchables. I trust you Canadians had a fine birthday party whilst I was away. It's America's turn today with the cake.

Got so sunburnt along Lake Michigan; red like a maple leaf.
