So the one thing that is great about Chicago (deep dish pizza) isn't even enjoyed by our resident Chicagoans? Crazy talk.

As for a uniquely American city, I would offer two choices:

A.) Detroit: this place was a lot better 50 years ago.

B.) Las Vegas: not nearly as nice as it seems, everything is fake when you look at it up close, and everyone is in debt up to their eyeballs.

I get the exact same feeling. It's the same as Disney World. All that garbage was built in the last 50 years. Boring.

My favorite big cities are Seattle, San Fran (although it's in California so you won't see many white people), Denver, Milwaukee and Kansas City (more as a comfortable big city to live in than to go out of your way to visit). I also thought New Mexico was a really unique, cool place, although I probably wouldn't live there.

Never been to Boston, New York or Philly and a lot others.

What's so great about seeing white people?

That's my opinion as well, and I lived there for 17 years.

It means there's a North Face outlet nearby?

I hate Chicago. I've been searching for two years for some NOS parts of my Cuda. I found a guy with almost all I need.....in [expletive] Chicago. Skokie actually. Where the [expletive] is Skokie? Oh it's like north Chicago so I have to drive all the way through Chicago to get there. Why are there toll roads? Don't we pay taxes for our highways? Traffic will suck and I'll be in a pickup truck pulling a trailer. That will suck worse. Hell it's August so it will probably be snowing when I get there. I hope this is my last trip ever to Chicago.

So you'll be that [expletive] in a pickup truck pulling a trailer that I get behind in rush hour traffic? And I'll be screaming "what kind of [expletive] drives a pickup truck pulling a trailer during rush hour?" {kidding}

Today someone asked me where they should go for a long weekend. Of course I said Chicago because that is the correct answer.

I was in Chicago today and saw this sign:



I have no idea what this is. "Blind"? What could this possibly mean. It was right after a pothole unlike I have never seen before - I'm not kidding it was endless. I think it went down 20 feet. It wasn't wide enough to swallow your entire tire, but the perimeter was was starting to get eaten away and I think within not too much time there is going to be a sinkhole on that road.

Driving down there is incredible. The gravel country roads that I sometimes travel on are 100x in better shape than main drags through Chicago. It's really bad.
