Plus the Chicagoistas are a very fun bunch.
Especially when you get them drunk.
Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
What about Ann Arbor? It's midwest, has an enormous book-buying public, and is name-checked in the book (...even if not pleasantly so).

Shit's all sorts of different now.
And I have contacts through Borders Corporate in Ann Arbor. Could maybe get you a reading there.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The Ann Arbor relative I was escaping now has a bookstore...oh, the scenarios that come to mind...

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Woo hoo, Allyson! I've pre-ordered your book as my birthday present to myself. (And DC should definitely be on your list. IJS. There's lots of us here.)
Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone! Hopefully they will make this crud that has settled in my chest go away.
Happy birthday, sorella!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Tom Cruise blown up by LA police!!
OK, I may have read that story wrong: [link]
The Los Angeles Times and movie studio Paramount could face a federal lawsuit after a publicity stunt to promote "Mission: Impossible III" sparked a bomb scare, the paper reported.
Around 4,500 sidewalk newspaper boxes across California were rigged with devices last April that played the "Mission: Impossible" theme when customers opened them in the build-up to the release of the Tom Cruise blockbuster.
But several customers thought the music players were bombs and reported them to law enforcement officials. An arson squad blew up one of the newspaper boxes in Santa Clarita, just north of Los Angeles, as a precaution.
