This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Wild Forks just opened in Vernon Hills by rflor
I had never heard of Wild Forks until I went there on impulse last weekend.
It's a brilliant concept, in my opinion. Stock an incredible selection of protein all flash-frozen for maximum quality. You name it, they have it from game to true Wagyu beef to Iberico pork.
I walked out with a picanha roast -- a cut I hadn't seen at any of my other Lake County preferred stores.
I am very much looking forward to smoking it this weekend and hope Wild Forks succeeds.
Staying on your topic -- I am sad to see Dom's fail. He was going to expand to Vernon Hills, and I was looking forward to his store. I hate how Kroger's has gutted Mariano's.
Call me bougie...but my favorite store these days is Fresh Market for similar reasons.
