Anyone around these parts? Wendy, if you and Drew are going to be available in the next few weeks/months, do you think you’d be able to join us?

Sorry you’re not as cool as the Chi-hards in Chi-town. (Oh snap!) Alright, alright, I’m getting out of your thread….

(Also, I’m trying to get “Chi-hards” started. Maybe it will be a thing one day.)

Hey now! Them’s fightin’ words. We have [real] pizza, the Statue of Liberty, Jay-Z (I saw him on 6th Ave!), and something you’ll never have- the ocean! ;P

(1) I happen to love NY pizza more, so fine I’ll give you that; (2) we have lions outside the Art Institute and a huge-ass Marilyn Monroe on Michigan Ave showing her white panties – we win; (3) so cool! well I used to see Jesse Jackson at my gym regularly (ugh, you win); (4) the ocean is overrate; our lake is like an ocean but without sharks and salt – we win. … Plus (5) rent is cheaper here. Boo-yah! That’s 3-2 Chicago.

addie, new york has lions outside its public library that certainly rival the art institute lions, so I’d call it a tie.

Come on AKchic, you can do better than to bring Jersey into this. I mean, what an easy shot.

That said, I would love to do a NY Dear Wendy meet up. I know I don’t comment often, but I love reading everyone’s replies and stories.

Actually, the Statue of Liberty is in New Jersey So no, NY does not have the Statue of Liberty!

Oceans are the best. Honestly, lakes kind of scare me more than oceans. But that might be because I grew up near oceans and not really big lakes.

Also, Statue of Liberty in NJ? Is this common knowledge? Wikipedia says New York though…
