I know this is just harmless forum, but Chicago seems a little too "big time" to get excited about Rosie

Replacing billionaire wealth and a popular show that fed many families will not be easy for one. I hope it is as much fun as Rosie and Tom..

If you don't like the Midwest maybe you should live someplace more provincial say like Des Moines. They have great farm equipment at the state fair. I remember when the farm companies were bragging about their new milking machines that year and demonstrating. The soft foam lining. I recall thinking the cows would be udder-ly delighted with their "new" squeeze.

This would be equally big news in Moline, lol. Of course the entire LGBT debate has to come up. In LA or NY, no one would blink.

It's warmer in Des Moines. Obviously Chicago is so much bigger and it's not a fair comparison (although some in Des Moines probably think it is).

The midwest is all so boring to begin with, Chicago offers much more but it's not really that much "cooler" when compared to any big city on the coast. Besides the weather of course. The costs in Chicago, while still cheaper than even SF or Seattle, aren't worth it in my opinion to be somewhere cold 8 months per year with that many small town midwesterners living there.

You guys do got the Chicago Bearers though.
