You said Knob Creek, and it took me a second, I thought of the place in Kentucky with all the automatic machine guns and what-not you can shoot.

Steve · June 07, 2009, 02:12:11 AM

The Knob Creek M.G. shoot is a cool place to go. I went once a few years ago,organized mayhem at it's best

this last year was a bit of a sad side-note for me.

Why's that? If you care to share.

A little kid was improperly supervised, and took the top of his head off with a micro uzi. in front of his parents. sad stuff.

HobieSport · June 07, 2009, 03:11:19 AM

Very sad indeed. An eight year old with an uzi

Is this article about the same accident?

I believe I made a mistake. wrong outing. still a very sad event, and I hope all involved will somehow recover as much as one could hope to.

Steve, where in Chicago do you reside at? I grew up near the intersection of Cicero and Fullerton. I try to visit once a year. My whole family no longer lives in the city anymore though. They all scattered to the various suburbs. I do have an old friend that still lives in the city as he is a cop now.

To keep this on topic my old number is 889-5944. Very easy to remember as every number but one repeats itself.

Tonyrotary · June 07, 2009, 03:37:17 AM

Steve · June 07, 2009, 03:40:26 AM

Cool. I am 46 myself.

Steve · June 07, 2009, 03:41:34 AM

You are over by the brickyards right? Italian by any chance?

Tonyrotary · June 07, 2009, 03:51:22 AM

Why yes half Italian...

Cannot speak a lick of it though. Ah the brickyards. That was a little further west from me. They use to have a mall called the brickyard mall at Diversey & Narragansett. The mall is closed I believe now. Some new kind of shopping center is in its place. It is a shame to hear that Chicago is going down the tubes. I loved the city but corruption runs wild.

Steve · June 07, 2009, 04:02:53 AM

What a small world. you grew up almost in the suburbs

J/K

are you in the sandbox? rough shi7 that. watch your 6 and I've got some pretty good cigars when you get back bro. make sure you call me. PM me for my number.

HELL, Chicago was a great town, but like you say, anyone with any brains got out by now. daley and his croneys have screwed things up beyond repair. I was a ward heeler for a few years, but I got wise under this daley crap.

Been to Chicago only once, back in 87' in the winter. Holy Otter Pop it was cold! I was living in LA at the time, and winter there is when you wear a shirt with sleeves instead of only a t-shirt in the evenings. Had a good buddy from Chicago at the time.
