Giant fiberglass wieners atop a hotdog stand. Wild green parrots that reside in the city. A double-decker outhouse. A museum devoted to surgical science. Statues that weep. Locate out in which these and other eclectic internet sites are found in Oddball Illinois, an offbeat travel guide that is a combine of Fodors and News of the Weird. There is much more amongst Chicago and St. Louis than cornfields and a lot of fascinating places in the Windy City that aren’t on Michigan Avenue. Oddball Illinois won’t point

Question by James H: Internship in the field of aerospace engineering for a freshman?
I am currently a freshman in high school, and was interested in studying aeronautical engineering over the summer to see I am truly interested in it. All of my attempts to find a place have failed so I have resorted to my friends here. I live in the suburbs of Chicago so I would be interested in a place close to home, but am willing to travel not to far though. It also is not about money, even though money is nice.

Question by EccentricFreak4u: Where can I find GOOD Chicago style deep dish pizza in DFW?
Where can I find some good Chicago style deep fish pizza in the DFW area? I don’t mean the deep dish like dominos, pizza hut, papa johns, etc. seem to have. I mean a deep 3-4+ inch deep pan, fresh dough, loads of cheese on the bottom…. then layered in all your fave toppings before being covered again with cheese and sauce..

The messy, cheeeesy goodness of the north!

This amusing travel guide to the Lone Star State doesn’t waste travelers’ time telling them where to find antiques in the Hill Country, take breathtaking hikes through Big Bend, or gaze upon the Alamo. Instead, it guides television fans to a modern replica of the Munsters’s mansion, leads the nonsqueamish to the world’s only Cockroach Hall of Fame, and points the curious towards a small town filled with hippo statues. Among other things, Texas is home to Goliath-sized roadside attractions, and d

Question by Rachel W: What’s the correct ruling regarding my security deposit? What about the interest clause? Chicago resident.?
About 2 weeks ago we moved out of our apartment we’ve been renting for 2 1/2 years. Our lease (which we basically wrote with some legal guidance) was only for that first year. Since we never officially renewed the lease, we spent the next year and 1/2 renting month to month basically. We gave our landlord 60 days of notice of our intent to vacate (via certified letter) and at the end of March we moved. We left the place … More Here
