The Smashing Pumpkins

[allegro]

I just adore Billy not only because he's such a brilliant musician and artist but because he's such a wonderful human being and humanitarian and just an overall good and valuable person and citizen.

Billy and I both live in Highland Park, Illinois, and we each love Highland Park. Billy has a huge wonderful historic Adler on Lake Michigan, but he doesn't act like his shit don't stink. He is a regular at several venues and restaurants and shops in HP. And everybody remembers him and loves him, and we all treat him with respect and love, and he treats us likewise.

Most importantly, he's been such an awesome supporter of Titles on St. Johns in HP, a rare book store. Florence, one of the owners, became very ill, and Billy went to visit her every day in the hospital. He's like a son to Art and Florence.

And now he's going to open a tea house at the old Ravinia post office

There's even a Billy Corgan Roll at Happy Sushi in Ravinia.

Billy, we love you, please never leave HP. XOXO.

Here's hoping our beloved Cubbies finally win the World Series this year, under Theo Epstein.

Oh, yeah, and thanks for all the free stuff.
