Chimack can tell you off the top if his head how many people were killed in the past 15 days, what gangs they were affiliated with, and how much money was lost to corruption in the past 72 hours.

I used to know it very well, but four years' absence have eroded my capabilities 
I couldn't believe how poorly I was able to recall how to get around on the CTA. I even confused the CTA for the Metra. And I took that route almost every day for years and years  |

I think everyone provides insight. I do wish there were more regular members that live south of Cermak though. I feel bad that we have to rely on Ajo for all things Southside. |

Funny how I'm less antagonistic toward this trick when the victim is the most annoying poster ever. Still pretty juvenile and not so creative, though.

Actually it's the same guy, back with a new screen name after being banned yet again for about the 10th time. Guess he can't take a hint about not being welcome. |

I tried. But with a spouse who works in Schaumburg, that pretty much confined me to the NW side. I'm kind of glad for it though, I found basically the kind of atmosphere I was looking for but with more elbow room than I would have had in the south side areas I was looking. |
