wait till it gets cold and windy, you'll change your mind.

there ARE some nifty places there.

I spent lots of time there with my previous employer for schooling.

lots of Blues places, if you like that.
Navy Pier is kinda fun
Museum of Industy is cool
the John Handcock and Sears towers.
art museum

you could spend a week there and always have something to do.

It's great.

Lots of fun things to do.

A haven for out-of towners, that is what differentiates it from other cities.

For example, I went to Cleveland in '02 and there was nothing to do other than Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I'm origionally from there, and even though I live in suburbs, it is still great.

Chicago woman friendly?  Dude you must have visited a different city or been shitting $100 bills.  I grew up there and in my opinion and experience Chicago is one of the worst towns to be single in.  It's uptight, puritanical (guess it just can't come to grips with its past), and seems to be dominated by yuppies who care more about comparing BMW's and bank accounts than having a good time.

As far as big cities go, I'd take NYC or L.A. in a heartbeat over Chicago.  All are liberal and have shitty gun laws but at least the first two have an endless amount of shit to do, friendlier people, and L.A. has a lock on the weather.

Just my .02 cents.

I'm sure you're an expert on whorehouses, seeing how it is you brought them up.  It's probably the only way a loud mouth troll can get laid.

I can see why you like Chicago so much.  You'll fit right in with Daley and his ilk.

That's why I suggested them to you.  You're the crybaby that whined that you couldn't manage to get laid in Chicago.  I don't know if you've got a little dick, or a lisp,  or maybe one leg is shorter than the other, but if you can't get laid in Chicago, there is SOMETHING terribly wrong with you.

Actually, I don't think you can.  You never saw it like I did, looking up from between a nice girl's thighs.  I'm guessing the only way you ever saw it was face down in the gutter while some fruit over in Boy's Town poked ya in the pooper (let's just hope he doesn't post pics).

That's all you've got?  Christ, this is boring.  Obviously the one thing that Chicago is lacking is a public education system, because you obviously couldn't insult your way out of a paper bag.

Looks like Florida is a pretty fucked up place to live these days. Attention pubescents from Florida: go the fuck away. Go play grab ass in your own state forums. Chicago sucks, I come from there. If you gentlemen spouted your sewer holes off in the streets of Chicago like you do here, your overweight, living in your Mom's basement asses would be wearing your ass for a hat.

I live in the redneck safe haven of western Lake County nowadays. I was born at St. Anne's Hospital, now closed. Originally from what is now known as "Roscoe Village" by the homosexuals and liberals. My parents moved us to the burbs, first Elmwood Park, then Des Plaines, the Buffalo Grove. I grew up in Buffalo Grove when the best paid guy in the town was a plumber. My how times have changed. Little man from Florida: Chicago women are a hard won prize. Unless you have an assload of money and a gay car, forget about it. Now come out by where me and Snojet are from, and it's a much different story.

Guys, seriously, come one. I am from Chicago. I was at the NFC championship in 84 where the Bears sacked the Rams. I am 4th generation Chicago. I have every right to say my peace about it. It is a crooked, filthy, corrupt ghetto. You see it as you'd like, truth is, it's a shit hole. Wait until Daley comes with his next round of gun grabbing bills and we'll see how much we all like it.

I guess we are just back to the gross difference of opinion between Babyboomers and Generation X. I respect you Bob, don't take it the wrong way but Chicago is viewed much differently by the generations that surround it. Buffalo Grove is hardly a lower income burb. I guess based on the successes y'all have had in this area in your day, I guess I'd like it too. I am younger than you and don't recognize this place anymore. Perhaps it's different in Orland Park.

Yes, it's a dirty, corrupt, gun-grabbing, liberal shit hole.  

Parts of it are incredibly beautiful - other parts incredibly nasty.

Yes, we have King Richard the 2nd and his gimp, Blagoya-bitch.

Yes, unless we oust Dickie, our chances for a CCW in IL are shit.

But..

We have awsome bars, awsome women, and awsome pizza.

Chicago is home, it's where my heart is, and it's where I'll be back again in 5 months after 6 years in the military.  I can't wait!
