LIR for liioulu: That was a great scene. You must have been very Chicago-proud. -- nm - loosilu May 13, 17:39 19
- I was, except we don't eat deep dish with a knife and fork. ;) -- nm - the liioulu who rummaged May 13, 17:43 1
  - I do because I'm a New Yorker. :) We eat our pizza by folding it in half. I can't handle the thick stuff! - loosilu May 13, 17:46
- I'm borrowing S2 from a friend and am well into it. I really enjoy all the location shooting. - con_carne May 13, 17:42 16

        I live in CA. If I worried about every inaccuracy that shows when my familiar locations are depicted, I'd have lost my mind long ago. -- nm - con_carne May 13, 18:36 1
        
        Hurricanes don't occur anywhere in the Midwest. ;) - the liioulu who rummaged May 13, 18:40
      - Been noticing that a lot on Fringe too -- nm - the liioulu who rummaged May 13, 17:50 3
