Thought for Today

"I have struck a city – a real city – and they call it Chicago... I urgently desire never to see it again. It is inhabited by savages."

~~~~~ Rudyard Kipling

  2. Sorry, Alex. While Kipling certainly exaggerated for dramatic effect, the wisdom and prescience of his words have become increasingly apparent now that a cohort of those "savages" has metastasized to Washington and taken over the Executive branch. That's not to say that there are not many great people and invaluable institutions in Chicago, but its political class is unquestionably the worst!
