My former fiancee, who was a former (and now again) resident of Chicago, had to navigate that area from the northside to take the Greyhound down to Nashville. It was quite harrowing, to say the least.
Cabrini-Green and those other Stalinist building blocks were the perfect monuments to failed Socialist policy warehousing of the poor underclass.
Maybe we can get your gothic 14-year old granddaughter together with my 13-year old nephew from Berkeley. His pic is on my page talking to Prince Charles. Heh.
She’s as good looking as my daughter was at that age. Her life is MUSIC : choir, band, plays piano, 2 guitars; becoming well known locally as a musician. So your nephew had best be a musician too. I WARNED her about all the scum/low lifes in the music field though. At age 5 I imprinted her with hum-drum life at home, then puncuated with trips to distant places, took her to a science conference in SLC. Big mistake, wiggle wart would NOT sit still through the various presentations...
Excellent! I can’t handle so much good news in one evening! : )
For a supposedly CATHOLIC state, that’s such a disgrace.
Mass. IS a mental institution!
Sometime in the late 80’s and early 90’s the state flipped. (As did Ted Kennedy in the early 1980’s) Our 80% Democratic Legislature used to be heavily Catholic and Pro-Life, and by 1996, it became Pro-Choice, as formerly Liberal Republicans joined the Democratic Party and got elected to the Legislature. And now, public polling indicates that Pro-Abortioner’s outnumber Pro-Lifers in Massachusetts 2-1, in a state were 35-50% of the population still attends Catholic services, and where 60+% have Catholic heritage.
Thank you for the specifics. It is a shameful.
