Are there are any therapy groups for compulsive liars and their loved ones specifically in Chicago because you really want to find something to help you understand your problem and to help your wife?

First off be sure you have labeled the person well and that it is a diagnosis from a professional and not one that your friends or family may have said. Your doctor should know where to send you and your wife for help. Also, you can call your local Mental Health in Chicago and they will help you. Remember, "Mental" does not mean you are crazy. You and your wife have a problem, and by you mentioning you have one too that is the very first step in quickly healing the problem. Some people lie because they may have had to while growing up for self preservation; if telling the truth they got a beating instead, then why not lie? Other people lie because they lack self confidence in themselves and so they try to dramatize about certain parts of their lives to make people look up to them or like them more. We all have garbage tied to our tails through life and we each have our own ghosts to wade through and figure out so we can be the best we can be. We aren't perfect. You can be assured if you are both willing to try and both admit to your problems a good therapist or group therapy is a great place to start and with hard work and fast rules you should be able to get through this just fine. Good luck Marcy

Can someone describe what New Town is or was and where it was located exactly?

Roughly from N of Diversey, S of Addison, E. Lake, W Clark or Sheffield.

I have always understood Newtown's borders to be those as stated by the above respondant. It is my understanding that the name Lakeview preceeds Newtown. Newtown finds itself in East Lakeview for the most part. I have been told that the name Newtown came into usage in the 60's as the government funded demolition of old structures and the building of government-funded housing, thus "New-Town". I remember the term was still in common usage in the early 80's when I visited upon occaision as a College student. As the population of young gay professionals increased in the area the name naturally morphed into "boystown", a pejoritive nickname given by young visitors to the neighborhood. (Some of whom I remember to have participated in the neighborhood culture a bit more than they were willing to admit to their Lincoln Park friends...Hmmm.) In the late 80's to mid 90's, enclaves of Boystown were as gay as you could imagine. In the block of Melrose between Halsted and Broadway I remember knowing of a gay resident in almost every building, almost. The name "Newtown" has fallen into disuse and the term "Boystown" is now used and understood by almost anyone living in the city. Realtors and those with property interests have reverted to the neutral name "Lakeview" and often speak of Lakeview in terms of sub regions; Belmont Harbor, East Lakeview, Buena Park, Wrigleyville, West Lakeview, Southport, to name a few.

Who played softball first?

The first softball game was played between Yale and Harvard alumni. On September 16, 1887, in Chicago, Illinois, George Hancock created the game.

The Yale and Harvard alumni had gathered at the Farragut Boat Club. They were there to hear the score of the annual football game. A Yale alumnus threw a boxing glove at a Harvard alumnus, who hit the glove with a stick. George Hancock had the boxing glove tied in a ball, and a broomstick handle was used as a bat. The final score of the game was 44-40, but the winner is unknown.

A week later, Hancock developed an undersized bat and a ball with a circumference of 16 inches to a baseball's 9 inches. The Farragut Boat Club came out with a set of rules for the game, which came to be known as 'Indoor-Outdoor'.
