No criminal charges were filed, but the student who punched another student for holding a pro-ICE sign at Lake Zurich High School last week received a two-day suspension and is back in class.
Feels weird to work in Zürich, Switzerland and see Lake Zürich every day, and then read about a random US highschool on the outskirts of Chicago being called “Lake Zurich High School”
I’m Scottish and once or twice a year will drive through the original Dallas. These days it’s just a single row of about two dozen houses (it has the remnants of a medieval castle though).
Must have been pretty trippy living there in the 80s when one of the biggest shows on American and British TV was Dallas.

All of North America is weird like that. I live within an easy drive of Stockholm, Kandahar, Amsterdam, Strasbourg, Aberdeen, Hague, and Moose Jaw.

It’s also the name of the lake at the center of the village in Illinois.
Makes sense why that would feel weird tho
Wait til ya hear about all the many places and things in the US named after the literal tribes of humans who once lived in roughly that exact spot 😐
I recently learned about this place called Paris… in Texas https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris,_Texas
Look at the city names in the southern and central part of Illinois, there’s a ton of towns and cities named after European locations
Wait till you hear about Texas NY. It’s in Mexico NY.
🤣
