Looks like Chicago is out of the running for the 2016 Olympics. I am bummed but not surprised. I had decided that I was going to go and watch if it wsa in Chicago. Has anyone attended a swim session at the Olympics (if you swam in one, that more than counts, but I am wondering about spectating!)?
Eric,
I beg to differ with you on your characterization of New Yorkers. True story. My wife was in Manhatten standing on the curb getting ready to cross the street. She stepped off the curb and from her left, down the street, came a guy on a bike yelling at the top of his lungs, "Get the f*^# outta the way!" My wife jumped back up onto the curb, and as the biker passed he said in a very sweet and demur voice, "thank you".
Now if that's not friendly, I don't know what is! :D
