The intersection of 119th Street and Indianapolis Blvd. Do to its proximity to Chicago, during the 1930s this was one of the busiest intersections in the country. There was once the architectural landmark of the Illiana Hotel but it was demolished during the early 90s. The only remenant of its long vibrant history is one of the orginal White Castles. Even though the term is used sarcastically by young people in their twenties, there are remenents of truth in it.

A very short haircut for young males almost appearing bald. Shorter even than the legendary butch haircut of the 60s. Usually worn in the summer by active tweens.

A nickname used by the youth of Whiting, IN for the wild celebrations of Independence Day. It's similar toBurningMan's tribal and primitive feel. Northwest Indiana's fourth of July celebrations were documented in the movie The Fourth of July and Other Disasters.

Since the 1970s, this was driving a car with wide tires in the centerlane after a snow storm. The centerlane was usually not plowed. This resulted in slush being sprayed into the oncoming traffic.
We went slushing in the delta last night.
I tried going slushing in a honda but the tires weren't wide enough to do any good.

A neighbor who does things that are very bad for the neighborhood. Such as living in the city and have farm animals or cutting down a tree in a way as to have the tree fall into someone else yard and then having the person whose yard it fell into responsible for removal of the tree.
Good Neighbor just got some chickens to go along with the goats.
The sherriff went to talk to Good Neighbor about his tree in my yard. He said he isn't going to do a thing about it and the sherriff can't do a thing.
