Chicago
I've always wondered about Chicago. I don't remember which comedian said it, but it went something like, "Go figure Chicago, huh? I don't get it. It's like a bunch of New Yorkers got together and said, 'You know, I really like the garbage, crime and overcrowding, but it's Just Not Cold Enough.'"
But finally, there's a reason to move to Chicago, and no, it's not our new President-Elect who is, after all, moving over here.

First there was Wendy's "Baconator," two quarter-pound burgers topped off with six strips of bacon. Hot 'n' juicy indeed.
Then J&D's smoky Bacon Salt, billed as delivering the flavor without the fat, the frying or the filthy kitchen, hit the shelves of Meijer, Jewel and other area grocery stores in September.
And this month, we saw the unveiling of breaded, deep-fried bacon -- dressed in country gravy -- at Risque Cafe in Lake View.
Mmmmm... bacon.
The candy of the meat world.
