The national murder rate is lower than it was in the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s and outrageously lower than the previous centuries. This myth of some pastoral past where everything was aw shucks and peaceable is bull.

Yep. Fall Weather is the best.

Chicago sees '-ber' in the calendar and starts getting in the groove of producing shitty mild weather

My parents got fraudulent charges from the Jewel hack.
Bummer. One of the guys at work had a similar issue with the Jimmy Johns thing.
On an unrelated note, it looks like we sidestepped most of the crazy rain from yesterday/this morning. I slept in a bit, so my commute into work won't be too bad. Now it's just gonna be chilly for a while (low at 39/40º!).

Yeah. It was coming down early morning but seemed like a lot less rain than they forecasted.
You and me both. If I grab a hoodie for the morning, I don't want to have to carry it all afternoon.

Guys, what is a good Italian restaurant where I can also reserve a party of like 10-15? I was thinking Maggiano's but I feel like theres a better option. It doesn't need to be in the city, burbs are okay too.
Monastero's on Devon Ave would be perfect for your situation. And my Bridgeport Italian inlaws like the food there so it has that Italian stamp of approval.

Piccolo Sogno, or La Scarola.
Ugh, I know it's hard to do on some streets but this is why we have the 3 foot law.

Yes and maybe. He seems to be in and out.
I saw him at Ruxbin just chilling, eating dinner by himself once.
i need to get out of my building. motherfucker upstairs walks as hard as possible on his ankles. for now, i'm gonna go full asshole and start hammering the ceiling and shit (we've already spoken about it, he's a dick...and my building manager told me to call the police because he doesn't understand how america works)
maybe i can record it, submit a complaint, and move to a different room/building under the same management company.

Thanks guys! I'll keep this in mind for next time. However my girlfriend doesn't want Italian now lol, she doesn't know what she wants but not Italian.
What are some other good restaurants around that are nice for a group with a few kids, but not fancy fancy?
Was walking home on Belmont like 30 mins ago when I approached a bunch of dudes. One of them came up to my face and punched across across the cheek. Was a weakass bitch punch. I just kinda jogged away since there was a group of six and was glad I didn't get jumped because that would have really set me off. There was a bunch of people right behind too who saw everything go down. I took the risk by not cabbing it tonight, but w/e. Black on black violence man :/

Sorry, I really hate bumping my own stuff but I know you guys have some suggestions
I was thinking Cite but that may be over-the-top for the kids(if they even allow kids). It doesn't need to be in the city, a north or west burn is cool too. I just want something a bit different. Also preferably a place that isn't super crazy to get to on a Friday night.
