Holy **** you're from my old hood!

I used to hang out at Vittum Park when I was a kid, went to grammar school at Mark Twain, and my best friend lives on 51st and Linder.

The neighborhood has changed a lot. There's a Starbucks on 47th and Cicero, which basically sums up everything.

Órale Homes',
Small World!! Used to play fast-pitch at Twain, I did 8th grade at Sah's School. Yep, the airport's a lot different now, and yes, there's the Starbuck's. Just wondering if we have mutual friend's back in the Hood! (Stickney)

I caught some of 50 (or is it fiddy) cent on stern the other morning, which I normally try to avoid.

I understood about every fifth word. I am still not sure what a "mumf" is, but that's apparently how long he has been doing something or another.

Only in America can someone of a 45 IQ become a billionaire.
