This is not for Kids or people easily offended, this is my experience at the Jerry Springer show and therefore more than a little obscene.
Here is the Ridiculous story of one mans trip to the Jerry Springer show.
We get there wait in a small line to go through the metal detectors, then are taken up to a waiting room through a 10' X 10' elevator with 15 ft ceilings. In the waiting room, obviously, we waited for about an hour and a half. People were all crowded and bored so jokes were told by the others around me. People laughed at others trying to use the "Vegas" style vending machines. Meaning there was a good chance you were loosing your money, it was possible to get chips but "the house" usually won.
Then someone walked in looking to tell us some news, that news being...."As you may or may not know, this is not an ordinary episode of Jerry. Tonight it is the Uncensored Jerry Springer Episode. This means there will be excessive language and nudity, if this offends anyone let me know now!" After the laughter stopped we were filed onto the stage. The magic was about to begin.
The MC slash main behind-the-scenes guy comes out tells us the run down, "Hey everyone as you know this is an uncensored show and therefore you guys can be as raunchy and foul mouthed as you want to be, but only when I tell you to. "This show is going to be all about you the audience the questions you ask are what make the show so be as filthy and disgusting as you can be when asking questions, but be funny, don’t just stand up there and say the F word a bunch of times be creative." "Oh and the louder and more you cheer the more there clothes come off."
So then Jerry comes out and does a little warming up of the crowd. He tells some jokes does a little Q & A Jerry then tells us to have fun.
The MC comes out again and this time tells us the show is about to begin and then gives us some final rules and guidelines. He finishes by saying "if you don't know what to do look at me and I will tell you what to do." (That is exactly what I did for the entire first segment.)
Then the ridiculousness of Jerry Springer Uncensored began. Out came two strippers, who for the rest of the time would be dancing around a poll just off to the side of the stage.
The first guest is a girl who thinks her boyfriend is cheating on her with another girl, turns out she is right and in fact Jerry has that girl back stage. Ding Ding Ding the girl from back stage comes out and immediately that start trying to kill each other. After a couple of minutes of fighting, for no apparent, reason they take off there clothes and decide to fight naked. As the crowed is yelling "F*ck her up F*ck her up", they roll on the ground pulling each others hair and punch each other all while Jerry just stands in the crowd and smiles at the insanity that he has created.
The boyfriend then comes out and the crowd just yells "F*ck you f*gg*t", over and over again. This is then where Jerry goes into the crowd to gets people, much braver than I, to say something to the boyfriend about how there d*ck is bigger than his, which always resulted in a "Then show us yours then" cheer by the crowd. There were great insults people calling people R Kelly or A white Carlton, from Fresh Prince, your moma jokes, all the staples. This would go on until no one had anything more to say and then...back to naked fighting.
Similar story lines and acts happened two more times girls come out naked fight. Girls stripped on a poll just of stage and the crowd made fun of everyone including if someone in the crowd said something dumb they to were then torn apart by the crowd yelling something like' "suck my d*ck you f*gg*t" or some other completely out-of-control chant. This was truly the most insane yet greatest thing that has ever happened to me.
It was funny yet wrong all at the same time, but then for the end it just got that much more ridiculous.
The same story line for the last segment except that the women in the first parts were cute, white trash, but good-looking, these ladies in the last segment were GINORMOUS. I mean huge. This was not as fun to watch. It also took a turn for the worst when the crowd was chanting, "F*ck you, you fat f*ck." My mouth was wide open and if you could see my face at the time you would no exactly what a dumbfounded expression should look like. I was in shock.
The show ended shortly after with Jerry's somewhat final thoughts and then clapping until done. We were thanked and then on are ways.
I will be trying again very soon to get another set of those tickets.
Company: Altos Las Hormigas 
Company: Nobul Red 
Company: Rainoldi
The one and only Harlem Globetrotters are coming to the United Center. They will be playing on the 21st at 1pm and 7pm. The tickets range in price from $14 in the nose bleeds to $125, which is kind of ridiculous. The Globtrotters with be playing and beating the Nationals, obviously. Man I can not wait to see this.
They are playing at Wise Fools Pub tomorrow the 20th. Everyone has to go check this band out. They play a jazz funk rock mix and do it well. They start at 9pm. The bar is great the band is excellent and the cover is cheap. I highly recommend it.

The Godfather of Soul, The Hardest Working Man in Showbuisness, Mr. Dynamite, Soul Brother Number One, The Hit Man, The Creator, The Minister of the New New Super Heavy Funk, The Original Disco Man... James Brown. Thanks to my Cousin Carmel I was able to see him live last week at the House of Blues.
Went and saw Munich last night in the theatres. It was good, defiantly worth watching on the big screen. The movie was long, 2 hours and 44 min, my butt fell asleep and I still had an hour to go. The movie though had to be that long otherwise they would not have been able to tell any of the story.
This may be one of the best sushi places in Chicago if not straight up the best, period. I have eaten from Coast before and always been blown away by there food, but this weekend I was able to actually go to the restaurant. We did not have a reservation, luckily though they had an opening early in the night. I was also there with a great crew so I knew the night would all go well.
This is a great place to get some food at. I have always been impressed with there food and drink selection. The Green Door is a really old building in the River North area and has actually been around since right after the Chicago fire. This makes it unique in its own way because it is made out of wood, which they did not allow at that time so close to the loop. The original door is still used and you can tell that it is so old because of the slant that it is on.
The CABP was a jazzy funky type of band with what seemed like a million people on stage, including African tribal dancers (they were not really from Africa, but look as thought they were). They had all sorts of great instruments going on to the sax, djembe, drums, guitar, keyboards, it went on.
some true roots in jazz. I actually got to talk with one of the singers and they seemed like cool guys. This band came on second though meaning I could not truly appreciate the band at 2 in the morning on New Years, I'll catch them again sometime.
This is in my kitchen, but I have not been able to get a picture of it till now.
