I had a late lunch with my friend Stuart - seen in the photograph above - yesterday afternoon at Kaos, the South Denver pizzeria located in a 100-year-old cottage with a wonderful garden patio. Dining outside is the only way to go at Kaos, and happily, it was a perfect spring day. Stuart is doing well, excited about starting a new job, but when the talk turned to baseball, he expressed reservations about his favorite team, the Chicago Cubs. Stuart is originally from the North Side of Chicago, while I am from the South Side, and, of course, a Chicago White Sox fan. The Cubs got rid of all their stars last year, and are in a rebuilding mode, while the White Sox have just finished their rebuilding program and are ready to compete. I can't wait for the "subway" series this year, when the Cubs and White Sox go head-to-head, although I doubt Stuart will be open to a friendly wager. But you never know - hope always springs eternal for Cubs fans at the start of the season.
