OK...this should be an easy one. In fact, you only get 2 clues to start.

1.) This person lives in the Windy City
2.) This person is 1/3 ice and 2/3 the devil.

That would be Burgs66?

Since approximately 2/3 of an iceberg is underwater that would actually mean the Titanic sank because the Devil kicked it? ;)

You are correct. Batter up!

(Ya' know, I was kinda' wondering.....some of the folks picked don't appear to spend much time, if any, in Mallory's. Do you suppose they know they're being talked about? <EG>

Then I guess it is my turn.

If you add a day to this post precisely,
then go back a week this person shows nicely.

But if up above you can't ascertain,
perhaps a clue can be found in a game.

The game is basketball, and this person's no loser.
In fact, this person might be a Hoosier.

And still if you can't get over this hill,
this person may help by providing a pill.

Oops, I am sorry, I messed up just a little.
And due to that flub I must add to the riddle.

The first clue above needs this addition of sorts:
The person referred to could change with reports.

To arrive at the person, name is not the key,
To connect the joint add sixteen and three

With the clues I have given, messed up though they be,
someone will untangle this riddle from me.

Dammit, where's Bilbo Baggins when you need him? These riddles are making me thirsty.

Is it khatalenabwraith? Dblpharmd? Somebody else who's name I can't pronounce? Onewhiteduck?

OK for sanity I 'll take this mission,
and post the whole riddle and then the addition.
After the things that I previously said,
all the new info will show up in red.

then go back a week this person shows nicely.

perhaps a clue can be found in a game.

These are the last clues, yes I must insist.
Just think of the army and maybe inlist.

No, I said army, not warward, my boy.
So that clue in no way refers to Hile Troy.

Does urban knowledge keep happiness away?
Well, ask your neighbor, he's in my way.

So think on my clues; trip not over your feet,
I won't be in your way the next time we meet.

Not a clue, BTW
