that was *so* funny! and sadly ever word of it is true. yes Chicago
does
exist, and yes even thought it's hard to imagine, the winters and
summers
are even more extreme than in Detroit/Michigan. After living there for
a
year and a half, and moving back to Detroit, I no longer feel the
bitter
cold of Michigan winters. Michigan seasons now seem comparatively tame
after
surviving the deadly Chicago summers and winters. literally. people
would
die! while people around me complain about how cold it is here in
Detroit,
I'm thinking "you have no idea what 'cold' is". I here Siberia is
pretty
nice this time of year :^)

does it get cold in winter in detroit? you wouldn't believe it! I had
to
ask if it was safe to leave records in the car, i thought cold like
that
could damage vinyl.
when i moved to new york from sydney i nearly died. i thought there
couldn't be a colder place on earth. then i fell in love with a girl
from
windsor and visited detroit regularly. my god! someone had made a big
mistake building a city there. then i spent christmasses at her family
holiday house in northen michigan (houghton lake). i refused to leave
the
house for the week for the first few years. i just watched this
muskrat on
the iced up river muching on frozen weeds. poor little bastard.
and get this - in summer the place is worse than australia - it's
really
hot and humid as hell. and there isn't a beach in sight.
i still don't know whether to believe that chicago really exists.
surely
people couldn't really live in a such a place.
well, it's the beach for me this saturday, followed by kenny larkin
in the
evening.
