THIS WEEK’S CHATTERHEADS

Allyssa Pollard, Neuqua Valley

Lee Pikelny, Lincoln Park

Gretchen Andsager, Neuqua Valley

Lynda Lopez, Prosser

MODERATOR: What’s the real reason Chicago didn’t

get the Olympics?

ALLYSSA: Copenhagen doesn’t like Oprah.

LEE: Oprah didn’t give the Olympic committee brand new cars.

GRETCHEN: I don’t think it would’ve been possible for Chicago to host the Olympics and get a large enough profit to outweigh the debts.

LYNDA: Beaches, hot weather and Carnival. Yeah … sorry, Chicago.

MODERATOR: Anything you want to tell the people in Rio?

ALLYSSA: Don’t expect any Chicagoans in 2016. We’re very bitter people.

LEE: Thanks for keeping Chicago from winning.

GRETCHEN: Be safe and have a blast enjoying the first Olympics in South America!

LYNDA: Can someone pay for my ticket to Rio? It’s only a few hundred dollars, or thousand … I’m good for it.

MODERATOR: Come up with a better name than “homecoming.”

ALLYSSA: Homegoing?

LEE: “Fake an Interest in Your School” Day.

GRETCHEN: Fall Formal.

LYNDA: “The Best Night of Your Life.” Who wouldn’t want to buy tickets to this event? $5 per ticket and for all that. Well worth it.

MODERATOR: Who would be a stranger couple than Khloe Kardashian and L.A. Laker Lamar Odom?

ALLYSSA: Rosie O’Donnell and Avery Brooks.

LEE: Michael Vick and a veterinarian. I doubt he’d get to play with the dogs.

GRETCHEN: Taylor Swift and Kanye West!!

LYNDA: Taylor Swift and Hulk Hogan. That would definitely be a VH1 worthy show. “When Good Girls Go Bad.”
