Illinois people!
 

I did a thread of all midwesterners, but since there's now one for Ohioans only, I figured I'd do one for Illinoisans only.

Okay, nothing's changed for me. Still live in SW DuPage county, Illinois and still work in west suburban Cook. For those that don't know that's the county just west of Chicago, and the one that surrounds Chicago, respectively.

Chicago is that still part of the state. Hello for East Central Il.

Yes well, I know a lot of people who wouldn't mind kicking it into the lake, and Daley with it. :)

Great post dadaist.....South central IL here...

I claim Wisconsin as home, am now stuck in Missouri, but my roots are in Illinois. (I was born and raised in Rockford and went to SIU-Carbondale, so I've spent time at both ends of the state.)

Not far from Peoria! East of Peoria and west of Bloomington and just a tad south of I-74. :D :D

Dicksbro is that a tad or a tad pole south of I-74;) :D

I always get Tads and smidgens mixed up...

Joliet here. But I'm origionaly from Chicago. South-west side. :)

Thinking I need to move north:rolleyes:

Why? You wouldn't like the cold ;)

Hello
 

Hi all,
From chicago northwest suburb here. Moved here 5 years ago from the East.

I think a tad and a smidgen are similar, just a wee bit different ... kinda like a gnat's eyelash if you know what I mean.

BTW, if you do know, could you explain it to me? :D :D

Are you sure you didn't mean TADS?

(methodology for programming text-only adventures for those who don't know, with an HTML-TADS variant for including images, etc.)

so then what is the difference between a butt-load and boat-load??
