Haven't been to the taste in years. And not because the stigma its gained over the years . Its just the same shyt every year.



i got tired of the taste.

when my mom's worked for cna,..before i did.

they were a sponsor and gave all their employees a huge lunch stipend at the day of setup of the taste in the morning.

so she collected everyone's stipend.

who wasn't going to go to the stipend booth on the morning for theirs.

she gave them all to me,..cause my mom's is from b-more and pretty much hates everything about the chi.

man,...i went down there and got like fourteen thousand dollars worth of tickets and just went crazy at the taste with the stipend tickets.

i was eating sckrimp's on a stix, crab legs, edwardo's, and turkey leg crazy, everyday of the taste.

from sun-up to sundown,..i was at the taste eating up some shyt.


i balled so hard!!!!

for the entire taste,..ever since then i been like fukk the taste.

no need to go down there, after that.

So, you're young, African-American and coming out professional school.

NYC, Chi-town or D.C.?

You'll likely be paid more in DC (not sure bout NYC), but Chicago has the best cost of living :smile:

You can live in a pretty nice, safe area in the city with way more square footage than DC. You also don't have to live way out in the burbs to live affordably and not have to live in the hood like DC. Living without a car is easy. Job market is not as good as DC's, but still pretty solid.

But wherever you get a job is a win in any of those cities. Don't believe the hype about Chicago, the violence is limited to certain areas. As a young professional living in the right place, you'll be more than aight.

Sugar Grove man charged with transporting child porn - chicagotribune.com


A Sugar Grove man was arrested and charged with transporting child pornography after the items were provided to an undercover FBI agent, officials said.

Dennis Houston, 43, was arrested in his home on June 7, where agents found about 1,300 child pornography images and video files on his laptop computer, according to a press release issued by the FBI.

On Feb. 29, an undercover FBI agent made online contact with another person by way of a peer-to-peer file sharing network. That person was sharing two password-protected file folders on the network, officials said.
