I think a lot of them are *from* Chicago! At least in Chicago you know what to expect. I don't miss a damned thing in Pismo except the food from Alex' rib joint, threadbare dump that it is!
I like the quote from Eddie Vrdolyak when asked if he was a back stabber - he said "I don't stab people in the back, I stab them right in the heart".
A fight is fun, backstabbing grieves me.
