Chicagoland: Blow It Up

There is no good reason for Chicago and it's suburbs to exist. For the sake of mankind it should become the modern day Sodom and Gomorrah. It is a tough and tedious drive from Dublin, Ohio to Hackensack, Minnesota. Why God allows this slumburg to be in the middle of the trip might be His one and only mistake. Why God allows this place to exist  is an ever greater mistake. Krakatoa should have been located next to the Sears Tower. No one in their right mind would drive I-94 through the City unless they wanted to waste a tank of gas going nowhere. I thought I was in my right mind when I skirted the western burbs. I wasn't. The height of egotism is that every city and community of any size in this state, other than Chicago, is considered 'Down State'. Rock Island, 155 miles due west on I-80 is down state. Rockford, situated in the north central part and fifteen miles from Beloit, Wisconsin is 'Down State'. What the hell is that? Off the cuff, while driving the two hours from south Chicago to Beloit, I mentally composed a list of things I hate about the Wind Bag City.
1)Tolls-$12 dollars worth for a 100 miles trip.
2) Road construction-the same roads have been under repair since the Model T made its debut.
3)Barack Obama, Valerie Jarrett, Michelle Obama, Rahm Emanuel, Blago, Tony Rezko, Al Capone
4)When governors(always dumbocrats) are inaugurated their mug shots immediately go to post offices
5)Jan Schakowsky(communist representative from the North Shore). I can understand Evanston in her district but why Skokie, Wilmette,  Niles, Winnetka, Park Ridge, Des Plaines, Rosemont and the North Shore of Chicago. It's not like paupers live in these communities. Shakowsky's husband, Robert Creamer, wrote the Obama health bill while he was in prison for fraud.
6) The Chicago Cubs whose owners know they will fill seats without having to field a team. My grandson could play right field and people would pay to watch him even though he'd only look at clouds and birds overhead which is more than some of their players do.
7)The Chicago Bears-Nobody cares about them since they eliminated their cheeleaders, the Honey Bears.
8) Drivers who flip me off in a 65 zone when I'm driving 67 and going too slow
9)The fact that Heilemans Old Style Lager, a Chicago favorite, is still considered good beer.
10)Toll takers who don't wear rubber gloves and sometimes a hand touch happens
11)Dick Durbin is one of their senators. The only acceptable thing about him is his first name.
12)WGN TV- The worst programming schedule since the invention of the test pattern. How many times can a person watch America's Funniest Home Videos?
13)O'Hare airport-Need I say more
14)Downtown stinks like a hillbilly's dirty feet
15)Riding the El is self-inflicted murder
16)Leads the nation in murders
17)Ranks just behind or just ahead of Mogidishu as the world's most dangerous city depending on how drunk the citizens are on Saturday night
18)Cabrini Green-Lyndon Johnson's center piece for his 'Great Society'
19)The Chicago White Sox-Obama's team


Positives about Chicago
1)Nothing
2)Escaping with you life
