North/Northwest side. That's where pretty much all of these things happened.

Saw the burning car in my alley and the attempted car theft basically across the street from my house in Irving Park. Saw the body in Ravenswood -- in broad daylight no less. Saw the shot-by-cops woman in Roscoe Village. Propositioned for the first time by a prostitute in Wrigleyville. I'm still not certain she was 100% female. Saw the stacked-bike thingy (first time anyway) in Avondale.

From 1971 to the end of 1975 I drove a cab in Chicago.
My first (and only time) I looked at a pistol aimed at me in a hold-up.
In Chicago I smoked my first joint...and liked it!

First and hopefully the last time I've been trapped on a subway train for hours and then evacuated through the pedestrian exit of said subway tunnel. Watched a women in a off white dress walk on a 2-3 foot ledge for a couple blocks through the winding and exceptionally dirty and not well lit tunnel.

I can't say that, but I can say that Chicago was the first place where I was ever propositioned by a prostitute that was old and toothless.

There's a White Castle in Kenosha. Glorious gastrointestinal destruction is a short 30-mile drive away.

I had to think about this one for awhile... didn't come up with much. I'm sure there are more that haven't occurred to me yet.

Chicago was the first place I ever:

- Lived in a highrise/doorman building/place with A/C
- Had crab rangoon, Thai curry, stuffed pizza, brussels sprouts, escargot, and goat meat
- Participated in a focus group
- Participated in an AIDS walk
- Watched hardcore gay porn on video at a bar
- Saw two kangaroos mating (at the Lincoln Park Zoo)
- Shopped at a Whole Foods Market
