purenation in chicago.
during a broadcast of the dr. who episode "horror of fang rock" on wttw chicago channel 11, on sunday november 22nd, 1987, at around 11:15pm, a video "pirate" wearing a max headroom mask broke into the signal and transmitted one of the weirdest, unauthorized things ever to hit the chicago airwaves.
a commercial airplane is in flight to chicago, when a blonde woman sitting in economy gets up and moves to an open seat in the first class section. a flight attendant watches her do this, and politely informs the woman that she must return to her seat in the economy class because that’s the type of ticket she paid for. the blonde woman replies, “i’m blonde, i’m beautiful, i’m going to chicago and i’m staying right here.” after repeated attempts and no success convicing the woman to return to economy, the flight attendant goes into the cockpit and informs the pilot and co-pilot that there’s a blonde bimbo sitting in first class who refuses to go back to her proper seat. the co-pilot goes back to the woman and explains why she needs to move, but once again the woman replies by saying, “i’m blonde, i’m beautiful, i’m going to chicago and i’m staying right here.” the co-pilot returns to the cockpit and suggests that perhaps they should have the arrival gate call the police and have the woman arrested when they land. the pilot says, “you say she’s blonde? i’ll handle this. i’m married to a blonde. i speak blonde.” he kneels down next to the woman and whispers quietly in her ear, and she says, “oh, i’m sorry,” then quickly moves back to her seat in economy class. the flight attendant and co-pilot are amazed and ask him what he said to get her to move back to economy without causing any fuss. “i told her first class isn’t going to chicago.”
this type of desk set is called a "potbelly" due to the bulge in the center section of the shaft. the chicago potbelly has a bakelite sleeve over the potbelly section so the user can get a better grip on the telephone.
a flight attendant fight tuesday stalled a chicago-bound plane for hours.
the flight was supposed to leave memphis just after 2 p.m., but as suzanne le mignot reports, a feud between employees forced the pilot to take drastic action before heading to chicago.
“it seemed like a lot of fuss over nothing,” said chip romine, talking about the argument two mesaba flight attendants had over his bag. “we were trying to put my bag in the overhead, and it was too big. one young lady came up and was trying to help me get it up, and the other lady came up and grabbed it and said, ‘i’ll take care of that.’”
then the two flight attendants started to quarrel some more.
“they just couldn’t get on the same page,” said passenger steve avent. “it just seemed like such a non-issue they were arguing about. you should have been here, you should have been there. i say tomato, you say tomato. it didn’t seem to be that big of a deal, but cost us two hours.”

in an effort to determine the top crime fighting agency in the country, the president narrowed the field to three finalist, the cia, the fbi, and the chicago police. the three remaining contenders were given the task of catching a rabbit which was released into the forest. the cia went into the forest. they placed animal informants throughout. they questioned all plant and mineral witnesses. after three months of extensive investigation they concluded that rabbits do not exist. the fbi went into the forest. after two weeks without a capture, they burned the forest killing everything in it, including the rabbit. they made no apologies. the rabbit deserved it. the cpd went into the forest. they came out two hours later with a badly beaten bear. the bear was yelling "okay, okay, i'm a rabbit, i'm a rabbit".
a 14-year-old boy has caused embarrassment to the chicago police department after he put on a faux police uniform, posed as a police officer, and was put on patrol for five hours before anyone noticed. police officials announced an investigation into what they described as a serious breach of security. the boy, who aspires to be a police officer, did not issue any tickets or drive the squad car. he has been charged with impersonating an officer. he was eventually discovered when someone noticed his uniform lacked one of the stars featured on a regulation police uniform. he had been part of a program designed to promote policing among youth, which meant he had some formal knowledge. source , source
