apparently reggie's pizza has decided to axe the pizza truck. this is a big blow to the chicago messenger industry...at least in my opinion. i've talked about her before but i seriously cannot stress how much she means to messengers in the windy city. i knew she didn't have a shot in winning the marcus cook award but i decided to share my thoughts and submit a nomination...
gina the pizza lady...i know, i know, she probably won't win anything but i just wanted to share with everyone how much i love this lady. from the day i first rode a bike as a messenger to right now...she has been out there looking out for messengers. if you're cold...she has a coat. if you're hot...she'll hold onto your stuff and return it safely after work. if you're hungry and don't have loot...just tell her you'll get back at her and she responds with a "no problem"...well, not for all...ha! if you're out of cigarettes...she has an extra. do you need to talk? she's the one to go to. she's the worlds most underrated psychiatrist. she also knows every story in the past 20 years out there. not afraid to fight for us but, also not afraid to give it to us straight. if you need to spread some news...hit up her truck...by the end of the day everyone and their mama will know about it. around here she's known as the messenger mom. a hug from her is almost as good as your very own mother.
im sure she'll still make her daily stops at cal's...she's not completely gone. i wish her the best and hope things turn around enough for her to work out there again. messengers could always use a good friend out there...peace.
