The New Neo Posted on October 6, 2009 by neoOctober 6, 2009

The New Neo Posted on October 2, 2009 by neoOctober 2, 2009

It’s official: Rio in 2016 for the Olympic Games. When I first heard the news that President Obama was flying to Copenhagen to plead that Chicago be tapped as the venue for the 2016 Summer Games, I was flabbergasted. Despite … Continue reading →
