CNN Anchor Declares Peoria "Sleepy"
CNN's answer to Fox News, Kyra Phillips, thinks Peoria is "sleepy". More on my blog:

2. Didn't know you had a blog. I'll have to add it to my favorites
Yeah, mainstream media is so snarky towards anything that isn't on the coast. It pisses me off so much. Chicago is ten times better than any city in the US let alone the world. I doubt they would have called a city on either coast of Peoria's size 'sleepy'. Good catch, mind if I mention it on my radio show? I'll be sure to give you credit and send people to your blog if you don't mind.

3. Thanks, Tweed
Sure, plug away. I just started the thing this month. It's no biggie but I am trying to include more Illinois stuff. This forum is a great source.

4. Yeah, how about the last time REO Speedwagon played in Peoria
Boy, that was happening! :eyes:

You have to admit it isn't exactly an overwhelmingly fun town, even by downstate Illinois standards.

5. Peoria is NOT sleepy
Strung out on crack, perhaps. Sleepy, no.
