Chicago used to be one of my favorite cities. It’s dead to me now.
All the classic American cities are dead to us.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
I have lived in Illinois since 1969, about 170 miles from Chicongo. In the summer of ‘70, I received, in the mail, a $100 parking ticket from the city of Chicongo. Never having been near the place, I ignored it.
After a couple of days it was in the papers that Chicongo had mailed thousands of them randomly, all over the state, many people just paid them. I’ve been here 52 years now and have never been to Chicongo, never will either.
Re “It (Chicago) is dead to me”.
So are a lot of its’ decent citizens, esp. young children!!!
