Good lord, aurelia! It's over and quiet now, right? That does sound like the end of a car chase we had here a while back: three sheriff's depts and a couple of CHP cars converging in our cul de sac.

Yay Field Museum and pizza!

ION: tonight's LA Complex is new, or new to the US, anyway.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

The guy was in cuffs pretty quickly. It seems to be down to one unmarked car, probably waiting for a tow truck to impound the arrested guy's car.

Well, I hope this leads to fewer incidents of official knocks on your door when you are not dressed to receive visitors, at least.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Aurelia, I find you astonishingly calm about all that.

Well, I'm not in the parts of Chicago where the murder rate has been through the roof.

Yeah, Chicago's already passed the 250 mark for murders this year. Are we number one? I probably don't want to know the answer to that.

-t, that made me laugh.

Zen, it was certainly a bit of excitement, but I never felt like I was in any danger. I did wait until the shouting stopped before I approached the window. I guess I'm just a urban kid. This is my world.

Shrift, I think yes. At least my parents keep hearing about it on national news.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Congratulations, Chicago. You've already hit the number of murders in all of Australia over 2010.

Because books.

It's weird because I can picture it happening in any of the neighborhoods I lived in New York, and I never felt unsafe there. Maybe it's just because I don't know your neighborhood that it sounds alarming.

I could tell an alarming story about when I lived in shrift's neighborhood, but I'll bet shrift doesn't want to hear it.

All of June and July in Chicago has been far too similar to that heat-wave episode of Chicago Code.
