The only good thing about this place is pizza, can't wait to get out.
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

Three of the most beautiful sights in the US are

The Grand Canyon in the spring time.

The Rocky Mountains in the winter time...


and Chicago in the rear view mirror.

Of course, if you have to be in Chicago, the best place to be is in the exact center of the city.  That way, no matter which way you go, you're leaving.

The food's good and the music is great. There's this old blues club on the South Side called the Cherckerboard Lounge. If , and only if, you go with a group its worth hitting if you're a blues fan. It is the home of some of the best modern blues out there, but the neighborhood is nowhere near safe

FQ is sending you to the part of town that had about 498 of Chitcago's 500 murders last year.
Have fun.

And here I thought you'd be encouraging me. ;D Seriously, it is a bad part of town, which is why I said go in a group. But life contains risks. I drive to work on I-95 everyday, go fishing in a 17 foot boat out of sight of land, am surrounded by hostile reptiles and live in a hurricane zone. Shat happens. Just decide whether its worth the the risk.

I was born in my grandmothers house on the south side and spent many summers there.

Nice place to learn to fight.

The south side was never a nice part of town, but I believe it has gotten worse.

I have a dvd player for good tunes and I have never had to evacuate from any where up here .
So bite me .   ;D

I did like the idea though .
Like sending him to "Beale Street"   ;D

Well, you'll be listening to Paul Schaefer rather than BB King and the pizza will suck (though Tim Horton's doughnuts are good), but the gun laws are probably better and the weather should be the same. ;D
