In Cambridgethe rivalry between the boaties can get quite fierce. Presumably after winning a race, somebody obviously spent a lot of effort decorating a bridge with 'Back where we belong' in a lovely serifed font. The obvious addition wasn't handled with quite as much care, but it made me chuckle:

The Grafitti Artist's WONDERLAND!In Chicago, there is one resteraunt that you can draaw ANYWHERE ( exept some places that are marked) with ink, pen, crayon, whatever! I left a huge inscription on the wall saying WOO YAY! in green ink pen.

That is probably Gino's EastIt's a pizza place that moved -- losing a lot of graffiti when it was torn down for another condo complex. I was there once with a friend who dicided to take the huge knife he kept in his boot out to carve his name. While he was busy carving, the waitress tried to take his plate, and he turned around (knife in hand and pointed at her accidentally) and said, "I'm not finished with that yet."
She backed up fast.
So if there are so many Chicago people here, why aren't we signing up for a party already? Seems we're always one short. . .
