It's too bad about Chicago. Always liked that city. When we were teenagers we'd travel down to Chicago, drive along windy Michigan Avenue and check out the females walking by. Especially those in dresses. That wind could sure blow and provide an afternoon of entertainment for a carload of teenage boys.
Chicago is still a great city. Its just that families with children have been leaving for 20-30 years and the numbers have only increased due to the demolition of housing projects and other urban renewal programs, etc.
