Is Chicago an holey city Or is it a town without pity? Kirk Douglas would know But would he dare go Where the bullets are itty-bitty?

I hope he keeps his head down, passed through a few years ago on my way to LA but didn't have time to sight see, maybe just as well. Tom

Hefner & Oprah left Chicago so they would not be leaving their money behind . . . . .

Are the bullets itty-bitty??? Not on Valentine's Day Massacre in 1929 with Al Capone ordering the hit of the rival gang. I dared go and took the City tour... lol...
