    Chicago is a big city.  I know they're not devoid of tailors.

    Yes, it is true.  When you look under "alterations" in the Chicago phonebook, there is just a big blank page.  Chicagoans like ill-fitting clothes.

    I know a lady here in Indianapolis that does great work.  Do you want to make the 3-4 hour trip?

    You could mail it to me and I'll do them. Only $5,000,000. I wanted to buy O the house she was looking at, which is why the price is a little higher than I normally ask.
