When I was there in November I noticed that they were working on expanding the airport... supposedly they have put 2.8 BILLION dollars into it already? The citizens of chicago are very upset that the mayor keeps putting more money into it. I hope it looks really nice when I go back.

A very nice airport though! Enjoyed every minute.

It's easy:

There are many Swedish people in Chicago. Prior to 1930 not many Swedish people had too much money.

Off Topic now: I like Spanair because I've been to Madrid.

Hey Cheeks if you're serious about looking up the meaning of unfamiliar words, get 'WordWeb' : http://wordweb.info/free/ -- it's much faster, uses no resources and you still have the option to search the www for words that are not included in it's database.
After having used it for a couple of weeks you'll wonder how you ever managed without it. This I promise Squire 😛

'bel' I know you do this kinda thing on purpose... I just looked up 'hip waders' 😳
The result is: Word not found, however I'm presented with a Nearest alternative: 'Hiram King Williams' 😳

Go figure.

I must admit I did know what Aristocratic meant though many words are out there that I probably have never even heard of my life, thanks for that link, its really handy 😀

Some forums have a "spell checker" available. I think that would be useful here at Fly Away. Read

firefox is a web browser that is less "complicated" than internet explorer and you have the ability to add add-ons and themes that internet explorer could not do and you also have the spell checker thing that really comes in handy when you cant spell many things or you just mess up and personally i think it is better than internet explorer or any other web browser.

You're right on the money there Em FIREFOX rules!!!

I must remind you though that a spell checker and a dictionary are strictly speaking not the same thing 😛

IMO, it's good to have both 😀

Apparently you have never been fishing in a lake....

Holy cow 😳 the lengths people will go to to make themselves look ugly. Don't tell me you're gonna wear those... we all want a picture if you do 😀

Never been fishing in a lake? Are you kidding me? As you know there is more than one way to skin a cat.
Wearing this type of pantaloons I take it you stand for hours on end in the freezing water, nothing to eat, nothing to drink, no chance to light a smoke and probably suppressing mother nature's calls like the truck drivers do.
Not good.
The way we used to do it was lie in wait hidden by tree branches and than jump on the unsuspecting prey, grab it by the throat, tear of it's head and eat it raw. Hardly worked up a sweat... those were the days... we were REAL hunters Whistle

Oh, and by the way, the fish were huuuuuuge Ha Ha

hahahahahaahaa. depends on if I have time to go fishing. More than likely it will be a trip to Florida this summer, which generally involves snorkelling and crabbing as opposed to standing in waist deep water with fishing lure and a styrofoam container attached to you filled with beer.
