While I don't think I've had bad food there really, I wouldn't think of it as a culinary destination at all. Other than the uber yummy breakfast place I found there last summer.  |

i do love the chicago diner, too, though i think i kinda burnt myself out on it the years i lived there. i also miss cafe pick-me-up, partially because i liked the food, but mostly because i loved the feel of that place. very cozy and cavernous and grungy hipster. hema's kitchen is still the best indian food i think i've ever eaten, though. and that indian buffet joint on belmont near ann sather's is still the best rotgut indian food i've ever eaten. 
on the other hand, leona's is the only place i've ever eaten where i've gotten food poisoning...TWICE. | |

I have to give props when props are due though:
We have great food here. Every big name artist plays here and I get to see at least 12 great shows a year. And downtown Chicago at night still kicks my ass after 39 years.  | |

Someone's gonna have to show me the great food next time I'm there.
Like I said, I don't remember it being bad, I just don't remember it being all that memorable (clearly  ) either. |

It's in The Midwest awhere there's conservatives and hicks. From what I hear Chicago is a sleepy conservative town. Houston actually parties harder on the club scene and is mor elive. Famous people have said that about New York too. It had more clubs but a place like Dallas is more into and in the mode. And aat concerts every single performer tells us we're harder and rowdier than most other audiences(US). I talked to Thea Austin a world famoys House singer after a concert here at South Beach. I aksed her if we were as wild as New York...expected to be a little southern boy that had nothing on NY. She replied kinda of funny in a voice correcting me"You're wilder.". If we're more wild and rowdy than New York we for sure must beat Chicago. Chicago? A conservative town? Okay?! Fluid, you do realize Chicago has had a Democratic mayor for, like, forever? And it was the first Mayor Daley that probably threw Illinois blue for Kennedy (by having people "vote early and often"). I wouldn't say it's as liberal as New York, but Illinois always goes blue because of Chicago. The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp. | |

Now I'm over it. Moved to the burbs and am loving it. When I was there,I stayed in a suburb known as Tinley Park which is right outside Chicago.I remember thinking it would be a nice place to live.I always think it's cool to live just right outside of a major city. | |

Downtown Chicago is AMAZING! I go crazy over a vibrant downtown that's full of people hanging out at night.I would love to go bar-hopping in downtown Chicago someday. | |

..mzsexybaby  i just remember opening the back door at my apartment one night to take out the trash, and there was a damn raccoon as big as a damn child standing on its hind legs staring at me like i had some damn nerve invading its privacy. so of course, i screamed like a little girl, slammed the door and hid in my bed for the night. I've seen large raccoons before.Once while I was driving,I almost ran over one! It darted into the street so fast.If I hadn't slammed on the brakes,that thing would have been roadkill! Raccoons are funny to me....they have a weird walk. | |

Last time we were there...Sweetie and I went for cocktails at the Signature Lounge (Hancock Building). Love that view...  We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I wouldn't say it's as liberal as New York, but Illinois always goes blue because of Chicago. Texas is the same way. Houston,Dallas,Austin, and San Antonio are battlegrounds. Usually democrats and republicans are close to neck and neck. The republicans usually have 55% and dems 45%. But Austin is a liberal city and democrats have the short lead. Well since Bush screwed up this time and Obama is convincing, all the cities in Texas went Blue. Even people in Texas are pissed at The Bush Administration. They described Housotn as a blue island in a red state. Even though republicans lost the cities by a small margin they one the state cause the rural hillbillies always wote republican. SO it tipped the ballance even though Obana won the biggest cities Texas is still a red state by a fairly small margin. Working up a purple sweat. | |

Well, if the economy gets worse (as I am sure it will) and you can't afford White Castle, maybe folks here can start shootin' those big ass raccoons for stew.
