Only in Chicago
For Ruthie......sorry you missed it!(this is real by the way)
No one shot, murdered in Chicago Monday October 6, 2004 — For the first time since 1999, serious crime took a holiday Monday in Chicago. Police Superintendent Phil Cline says none of the city's nearly three (m) million citizens got shot. And nobody was murdered. Cline says he was amazed to wake up yesterday and find no news of any overnight shootings or killings. He attributes the success to the pressure the department's putting on gangs -- and a little bit of luck. Last year, Chicago had 600 killings and just over three-thousand aggravated batteries by firearm. Cline says the city's down 112 homicides and almost one-thousand shootings compared with last year.

That's horrible. And everyone I know who's been to Chicago loves it and says the people are great!

What's going on here? Everyone seems to have a GBF in Chicago except me. And I should, seeing as according to the papers, so few were shot last week.

Can someone find me a gay boyfriend?

I used to work in Chicago, in the old department store,
I used to work in Chicago, I don't work there any more. A lady came in for some lettuce, lettuce from the store: Lettuce she wanted and head she got and I don't work there anymore. I miss playing rugby.
