Would have been cool, but then I would have had to go out to close it up. Too many creepy people walking around, like this guy (bonus points to anyone who can tell who this "famous" Cub fan is pictured with my son):

Kinda like putting toothpicks in your pocket and accidentally building a log cabin.

Phenomenal simile. Just phenomenal.
