Nope, I used to go to the city a lot when I lived in Hudson County, but not so much anymore. I need to go again soon to stock up on my liquor because it's actually cheaper there.

Huh, didn't get that one right. I have met a few people here in Bayonne that have never been to NYC, usually if someone in this area says they don't like Chicago it is probably because they dislike NYC as well.

Odd that liquor is cheaper there, I never noticed that, but haven't bought any yet by the bottle in either state.

It's even cheaper in Hawaii, so I buy my liquor in PA or in the City now. I don't like Chicago because I've never heard a reputable person ever say one good thing about it. Everyone I know who has ever lived there told me it was corrupt, cold, boring and a NYC wannabe (but will never be because it sucks).

What exactly are Chicago rules??

If your truly concerned about Chicagoans, then actually help with our problems.

It's cleaner, more affordable while still having the qualities of NYC such as rail and walkability, very friendly, and not over run with tourists, also not as crowded so you don't feel like you are packed in.

If you have never been there, you should visit, it is never good to listen to those that move away from a city because they typically have only negative things to say about it because they were ready to move.

Another leaner admits that he keeps that old lib shield up so he can keep from knowing anything that is other than what he wants to know. No wonder you appear to be so far out of it sometimes. You may even get a kick out of this one if you read some of it. At least look at the pictures. You can do that, can't you?

I know about them 1st hand. Almost got set up by them so a state trooper could get a vacation,


I'm no fan of Chicago politics. I'm no fan of American politics. What I'm tired of is Americans pointing the finger at the opposing party. We need an overhaul.

No, I use to click on your links then I learned they were a waste of time and nothing more than Republican propaganda. My guess is you just read things you agree with like most people do.

I have feeling that I'll have to go eventually for work, but that city would be on my last list of places to visit.
