What up all? I just wanted to say thanks to those of you that checked in on me during this last month and I hope everyone is doing well. Everything is fine with me; I'm moving from Atlanta to Chicago for my career and it's been really stressful. I don't leave for another month and a half, but there is so much I have to get done in that time. I'm basically leaving everyone and everything I know and moving to a city that I've been to once in my entire life. Hopefully, everything will settle down soon and I can concentrate on the more important things in life....like college football. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) -ATLDawg272-

LOL. Don't count on me to adopt the local team. I would love to see the Braves play at Wrigley though.

WHATS UP ATL!!!!!!!!!!!! Long time, glad to hear you are doing well. You know they dont call it the windy city for nothing. I spent one winter up there, MORE than enough for me. I like the cold and snow, but that damn wind chill was just to much. lol Never again.

Oh, Chicago is a great city. My advise. Live downtown. It's more expensive, but it's worth it. Look a the Presidential Towers. They are four residential buildings that are interconnected underground with restaurtants, barbershops and even a grocery store all in the event of bad weather.

Bullshit interesting. Froze my ass off. lol It is called put on everything you own, run like hell to where you have to go and still freezing in that short distance. I am sorry red, I love every part of this great nation, but you can most definately have those wind chills. Thirty below is not for me. Gives me chills just remembering it. lol I do love the great lakes, the view, very nice just no winters for me.

That is so true, I hate the summers here. It is about 35 right now though. Like I said I love aspects of every part of this country. For a few years there, I would do summers in seattle and come back to ga for the winter, figure that one out. lol

I think you are missing a very important point here, gbr. When you have to wear 6 layers of clothing, so does the opposite sex. It will be like living in Saudi Arabia only being able to see chicks' eyes walking down the street during winter. I'm going to miss the South. ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png)

I like having 4 seasons and I'm one of the few southern boys that enjoy the CO weather. Now that being said you must be sick if you like freezing cold wind blasts, there is nothing nice about that weather. Cold weather and high speed freezing wind are entirely different in my book.

Atl, glad you are back.
Lived in Chicago for three years, took about another 2 in Atl to thaw. But in the Summer it is nice, for those 2 months.

Since you're moving, does this mean you'll have to change your toggle to ChiTownDawg272?

You're fucked. Now I get all the beauties you are leaving behind. Plus, I'm moving to Greenville on Dec 1st. so I'll need to find quality talent elsewhere because I'm not sure there is too much there. I could be wrong though.

He's going to freeze his pecker off. I've been to Chicago once during the winter, and I'm never going back.
