1. I am about 3 1/2 miles NNW of Wrigley Field.

After the game last night I heard helicopters hovering, but too far and too much city noise to hear anything.

On edit: In fact, my neighborhood is almost totally quiet. Virtually no cars, just planes overhead. I think everyone is home watching the game.

5. Look out for Bartmann
I saw on the news that he lives there and has to have police protection. Poor guy, I hope the Cubs win tonight for his sake. Otherwise, he'll be tormented for his entire life.

8. What's the difference?
Just kidding! (ducking from any flying objects)

I probably got my North_____s mixed up. You are most likely right, since I really didn't pay too much attention to the city's name. I was more concerned about the fact that the dude had to have cops in front of his house because of a baseball game.

10. Come To Think Of It I Am In Northbrook
In Chicago visiting a friend and far away from the traffic. I drove on his parent's street today and there were police cars in front of their house.
