This is a subcompact 9 millimeter that fits nicely into the hand and is easily concealed. [img] as for the hotel, well I can't help you there. |

| __________________________________ [Jul 12,2006 2:39pm - brian_dc ""] Evanston is the area around Northwestern University...at least mildy sure that it's a good area. Give it a shot. http://www.google.com/maps?hl=en&lr=&safe=...Evanston,+IL&sa=X&oi=local&ct=title |
| __________________________________ [Jul 12,2006 2:40pm - brian_dc ""] I was born in Illinois, but not the Chicago area, the Springfield area...but I'm sure I could ask around with relatives if that doesn't appeal to you. |
| __________________________________ [Jul 12,2006 2:46pm - brian_dc ""] slightly closer than Evanston is Lincolnwood. http://www.google.com/maps?hl=en&lr=&safe=...colnwood,+IL&sa=X&oi=local&ct=title edited to add that I know nothing about that area. and again because the link was wrong. |
