Things began as they usually did: Someone shot someone else. So begins a chapter of this sharp, fearless collection from a master storyteller. Revisiting seventeen Chicago murder cases including that of Belva and Beulah, two murderesses whose trials inspired the musical Chicago Michael Lesy captures an extraordinary moment in American history, bringing to life a city where newspapers scrambled to cover the latest mayhem. Just as Lesy s book Wisconsin Death Trip subverted the accepted notion of the Gay Nineties, so Murder City exposes the tragedy of the Jazz Age and the tortured individuals who may be the progenitors of our modern age.

Good Tissot Watch
Color: Grey
Arrived on time, in its original box, include a 2 year international warranty, into the box include a book with the Tissot brand history in Switzerland. Algo a second book with a whole catalog of Tissot watches men and women. The watch looks better when you put in on your wrist. The “naval” blue really gives the clock a classy look. The stainless steel workmanship is really good, the metal is bright and perfectly polished. The metal wristband quality is very good, did not have any problem to adjust the size , I went to my preferred clock workshop for this job, they extracted a few pieces of the band to fit to my small wrist size. Have to get used to the butterfly latch, but after a few days, now I learned to open and close it without any effort. The clock it’s very accurate, I’ve been using my Tissot for near a month and it just increased a few seconds per week. I do the setup and check accuracy with my pc clock. In short, It”s a good value watch, nice, good looking, accurate.

Good enough for Trump, good enough for me.
Size: 9, Color: Black Crazy Horse
Not gonna lie, the only reason I first bought these were because Trump likes this brand of shoes and the fake media ran a story about it. Once I got them and tried them on I was shocked just how comfortable they were. These are very nice and comfortable. I will definitely be buying more from this brand. Nice job Florsheim. 45/47

Excellent shoes - good fit, nice look.
Excellent shoes - great value for money! Attractive and well built. Got several unsolicited compliments from co-workers. They are stiff at first and require a bit more of a break-in period than some other shoes I have purchased lately. I hope that is a sign of durability ...
