Chicago gets a big Willy!

But when Chicago residents go to bed tonight, their beloved Sears Tower, one of the world’s iconic skyscrapers and the tallest building in the U.S., no longer will be the Sears Tower. It will be Willis Tower.

The picture of the new Willis Tower was taken by me as I was flying on the Eisenhower transition west bound from the lake shore. A cool place to fly if you like low, crowded, complex airspace with no place to land

Willis gave a bunch of money to the 2016 Olympic bid committee. So I was gonna call it 'Daley's big grafted on Willy' Tower, that is not correct?

Nice picture, Scott. Careful, though. I think Richie's probably considering having his thugs shoot at those small planes so close to his city!

Probably better than the "Little Dick" we have now!
