I live in Rockford, Illinois

Things you should know about Rockford, Illinois:

The home of Cheap Trick. That's the end of the good stuff (if you consider that good). We are always in the Top 10 in unemployment, crime, some of the worst roads and schools, city and state run by democrats for decades. Also a new development we are now in the Top 10 in venereal diseases. I don't hold the politicians responsible for that though. Summers are hot and humid and winters are about 6 months long. Only thing keeping me here is my job. I am out of here the first chance I get. I will be going west.

Too funny, i just read all of these and was about inform people about rockford,il where I am from and currently reside as well.I guess you beat me to it. I enjoy the bars here. I will be headers to shooters to bet some horses and play some pull tabs tonight. maybe gamblers think a like. A job is what keeps me here and I plan to move to galena but also have aspiration of a life on the west coast again!
