like one of the most corrupt political places in the US, in terms of giant cities. I hope they one day can truly clean it up, but I am not holding my breath. One of my business partners (he was a co-worker with my mum in London) is a Chicagoan, who is 30 years older than I am (he is 1966 born, I am 1996 born) and he is full of crazy stories about the place.

he has the coolest birthdate, lol
