Get the C ville mug.Canaryville is a small Chicago neighborhood next to the old Stockyards on the south side. Bounded by Halsted, Canal, 39th & 49th, it has been a part of Chicago since 1889, when it was annexed from the Township of Lake. “Canaryville” enjoyed a reputation as one of the toughest neighborhoods in the city from the late nineteenth through much of the twentieth century. A largely Irish community on the South Side adjacent to Bridgeport in the New City community area.
Given its close proximity to the stockyards, the area's physical environment and economic life were shaped by livestock and meatpacking from the 1860s until the industry's decline in the postwar era. Canaryville's name may originally have derived from the legions of sparrows who populated the area at the end of the nineteenth century, feeding off stockyard refuse and grain from railroad cars, but the term was also applied to the neighborhood's rambunctious youth, its “wild canaries.” Gangs helped establish the neighborhood's truculent reputation and were active in attacks on African Americans during the 1919 Race Riot. Boasting a strong Democratic Party machine throughout the twentieth century, Canaryville also embraced a rich Roman Catholic cultural life centered on St. Gabriel's Parish. With the closing of the stockyards and the International Amphitheatre, population in the area began declining in the 1960s. Still populated largely by Irish, Canaryville now includes a sizeable Mexican community.

Get the C-ville mug.this expert level sexual maneuver is performed while in the standing 69 position (see skelton pecker for more info). following the point where you explode a wad of man juice into your partner's mouth, thus ripping her face asunder from the force of your ejaculate, you proceed to drop to your knees, busting her head on the ground, thus delivering a DEVASTATING tombstone piledriver...the likes of which professional wrestling has never seen.

Dude, T.J. was one president with awesome balls! He had more black progeny than any white man in history, and he was from Charlottesville (C'ville, Ch'ville, CHO).
Hey, you going downtown to Fridays After Five? Saw it in the C'ville. I'm picking up my girl at CHO then we'll catch the Chicken Heads opening for the Charlottesville Blues Allstars.
Went to the UVA corner for a bite, man, those coed hotties were a mess. If it wasn't for the Gucci & Prada I'd have thought they were Shifflett gals, up from the holler in C'ville to party.
