also, it's after Easter


Yes, Virginia.  There are hillbillies in the city.  Phillbillies.

Like what you see here? There is lots more in the Urbanity Flickr stream!

I spent the better part of five minutes trying to come up with a Chicago version of Phillbillies (four L's -- I like it) and the best I could do was Chicks. Chi-cks? C-hicks? It just doesn't work. It's the SH sound that's the problem.

Anyhow, I consulted a thesaurus, and the only synonym they gave was "bushwhacker." How great a word is that?

I may not agree with their clices, but I will defend until the next commercial break, their right to fling 'em around, mindlessly.

@JMH: How about Chinecks? Chokies? Oh, I know, the Chiosen Onez....

Caly has a few, too.
