the dirtiest city in america

this is bad. really bad. i never would have guessed.

according to a recent study published by the reader's digest, chicago ranks as the dirtiest city in the u.s. of a; followed by new york, pittsburgh, st. louis and birmingham.

my dear city -- los angeles -- is way down in the list. ninth! hehehe.

the top five cleanest cities? portland, san jose, buffalo, columbus and san francisco.
