lala_lollies44 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE I GET TO SEE MIKA! I honestly thought it would never happen. Now I must do my stupid homework, and submit it online so it will be in on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haley & Megan Meyer Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Ohh next one in the breezy / windy city? Windy? Wow your post just made us freak. Okay so we are done for today. Student teaching was enough excitement for me. Now we are definately running around like clowns on purpose. Going to our Dad's tonight. We will be without computer access (because he doesn't have one.....) Anyways, I didn't think about giving you all our phone number so you could text us. Kind of late now. Either way we'll see you all tomorrow.:biggrin2: Haley & Megan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leonita Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 hey Freddie- it's called the Windy City because of all the hot air produced by our politicians! (and not just recently!) YES!!!!!!!! By this time tomorrow we'll all be hyperventilating in line! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shanmcd Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Hi all, I am taking my 10 year old to the Riv show, I am so excited! I love to make huge fan banners, and was CONSIDERING putting one together for tomorrow...but what should it say? there is always the failsafe "MIKA!" type stuff, but are there any good song references you can think of? Also...I have found that saying things along the lines of "WE LOVE YOU" or any LOVE stuff tends to be a more difficult hanging...It's strange but many "guys" will hesitate if it says anything that they feel could even slightly, um, misrepresent their er, interests...if you know what I mean. :rolls_eyes: any ideas? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel_tinydancer Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Whys it called the windy city? high up? Its east coast isnt it? I'm pretty sure it's because it's right off Lake Michigan and the wind from across the lake blows right into the middle of the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leonita Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I'm pretty sure it's because it's right off Lake Michigan and the wind from across the lake blows right into the middle of the city. The following "windy city" explanation is from the Freeborn County Standard of Albert Lea, Minnesota, on November 20, 1892[2]: “ Chicago has been called the “windy” city, the term being used metaphorically to make out that Chicagoans were braggarts. The city is losing this reputation, for the reason that as people got acquainted with it they found most of her claims to be backed up by facts. As usual, people go to extremes in this thing also, and one can tell a stranger almost anything about Chicago today and feel that he believes it implicitly.

FREDDIESDOUBLE Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 No, it's what I would call middle...central. I don't know why it's so windy. I'm guessing it has to do with the fact there are no mountains around to block anything. I'm not sure on the sea level either. I'm in Colorado and we are high...over a kilometer high is Denver (aka "the Mile High City"..). We get real strong wind when it wips along the mountains..it picked my son up one time I was walking him to school, I was holding his hand and he was off the ground. Awwww thanks for that , I do like to be educated now and again Have a fabby time everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
