I’ve never seen anything like it in my life ... only been here 3-1/2 yrs. It’s mind boggling!

True. Those games were memorable--for all the worst reasons.

The Magnificent Seven. Dominique Moceanu tumbling across the floor to "The Devil Went Down to Georgia." Kerri Strug sticking a perfect vault with a wrenched ankle.

IMO, it’s very sad. Chicago is a great city, with so much to see and do, but it’s so horribly managed. I really hope Park Ridge and all those other northern Cook County suburbs follow through on their threat to form their own county.

Well, so much for Celine Dion and Sarah Brightman ... what happened with that ? Strange ... all the news sources I’m checking say she was going to perform tonight.

Celine Dion? I heard that she made it as far as Hong Kong, but the ChiComs forced her to turn back... for the sake of good taste.
