How do people in Illinois (more around Chicago) talk differently?
Q. So I live near Chicago. A few weeks ago I went on a vacation. I was talking to a waiter at a resturaunt and he asked me where I was from. I said the Chicago area. He then starts cracking up because apparently i said Chi - ka - ga. And wanted me to say Illinois. He again laughed at me because I said Illinois without pronouncing the "s" at the end. I thought that was how you were supposed to say Illinois. Well anyways. Do we really talk that funny? I am very curious. Thanks xoxo

A. Yes, folks from Chicago talk funny, but so do folks from New York, Boston, Philly, and so on. Each region has its own particular way of pronouncing certain words, not right, not wrong, just different. But that waiter was very rude and demonstrated his own ignorance by laughing at you. That was also not polite. And yes, the 's' in Illinois is silent, even here in California.

Why do they really dislike ketchup or their hot dogs/Superdawgs?
Q. People from Chicago, Illinois, put on their hot dogs mustard, onion, celery salt, pickle spear, sliced tomato, and some chilli peppers. no ketchup at all! Superdawg is a Chicago hot dog joint where they name the product a Superdawg rather than hot dog.

A. I hear you - someone else posted a question about ketchup on hot dogs being a cardinal sin and I responded that I like it personally. Many of the other responders said only kids younger than 13 do that - sheesh! Then again I didn't grow up in Chicago. Isn't it rather ironic that for all of the dietary sins Chicago is known for that they would put veggies on a hot dog? To me tomato slices and a hot dog is just outright weird. The tomato in ketchup form is the only way for me. I try not to eat hot dogs (fattening) so I've not been to Superdawg myself but people do rave about it. Only hot dogs I've eaten in he city are at Wrigley - those are to die for. And with ketchup.

Would it be cheaper to drive of fly to phoenix, arizona, from Chicago, illinois?
Q. I want to take a trip to Phoenix Arizona and I live in Chicago. I have never really driven anywhere more than 5 hours away. The air fare for the trip would be 789, after taxes, per person, two people are going. The drive according to google maps is about 27 hours of driving. That's drivable to me. I would be driving a nissan altima, so its not a gas guzzler. So I was wondering if driving would be cheaper then paying the $1500 to fly.
Asked by Phil R - Tue Dec 23 16:43:18 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. If you measure your cost in gas alone, then it would definitely be cheaper to drive than fly -- it's 3,600 miles round trip between those cities, so even at 20 miles per gallon, you'd be paying for 180 gallons of gas rather than $1500 for two plane tickets. There are other costs associated with driving versus flying, though -- wear and tear on the car, hotels or motels (if you choose to stop), and the time involved with driving (54 hours versus 8 hours for a round trip flight). It's up to you to determine whether these costs are worth spending two or more days driving versus half a day flying.

How do people from Illinois feel about this?
Q. Mayor Daley puts $2 million city price tag for Obamafest. Obama will pay election night rally costs by fran spielman chicago Sun-Times City Hall Reporter Mayor Daley today put a $2 million price tag on the cost of city services associated with the giant Barack Obama election night rally in Grant Park. He suggested the United Center as cheaper simpler alternative but was turned down. The mayor said the cash-flushed Obama campaign has agreed to reimburse the city for those services because Chicago is grappling with a $465 million deficit and is in no position to pay for it. How do the contributors fill about this? As a senator he has done nothing for us here in Chicago. I think we have the worst crime rates in the US.

Where can I help the homeless in the Chicago, Illinois areas for Christmas or any other time?
Q. I'd like to do something nice for the homeless this season. Well, it doesn't have to be on a holiday anytime would be great.

But I live in a residential area, so the township quickly stopped the homeless from hanging out there? I don't know where they went.

Why do people have sexual affairs with their cousins?
Q. I knew a girl at work, Aminah Bedolla a.k.a. Aminah Orihuela from Chicago Illinois who was married to a great guy and decided to have sex with her cousin. She ended up falling in love with him and tore her family apart. If someone is not happy in their home why don't they just get a divorce and move on but not with their cousin...eeewww!!!

A. She probably had allot of contact with her cousin and being familly he would probably be sympathetic with her so they would have found it easy to fall in love because they knew each other so well. Also the forbidden fruit is often so much more tempting.x
