Were the Duggars in Chicago today?

Because I swear I saw them. If so Michelle was wearing a blue shirt and Jim Bob a pastel green.

Interesting! That actually might be possible, given the chatter I've read on FJ (and heard elsewhere) about Jana doing a long term placement with Gothard's Journey-type program in Chicago!!

[Peas n carrots]

If they were I did not see them. I'm terribly dissapointed. However I imagine they would have been out in the 'burbs where Gothard lies, rather than getting even remotely close to the godless city proper.

That's where I was. I was a few blocks from Gothard HQ, getting gas. I saw them from a distance, so I am not sure.

LOL I had a similar experience, seeing a celebrity from afar at a gas station...only in my case it was Jay-Z and it was by DePaul U.

Isn't Gothard HQ in Oak Brook?

ETA the ATI HQ is in Hinsdale...which is next door to Oak Brook.

707 W Ogden Ave, Hinsdale, IL 60521

(630) 323-9800

Hmmm...next time I'm in the 'hood I'll have to do a drive by. I'm assuming, by the looks on Google Maps, that there is a dorm there for Jana to crash in?

It actually makes some sense that the parents (even those parents) would be there to send Jana off if she was going to be working there for a substantial period of time. The elections in WI were just yesterday and Mullet could have easily flown up (leaving poor Jessa behind with the little ones) or I guess they could have taken the van, but that's more vehicles to haul home and we all know how environmentally-conscious they are. :roll:

This could also explain why they didn't show up on the Today Show today. Well, as Scarlett O'Hara (sort of) said, there's always tomorrow. And they've done the Today Show without family members before, so it's not like there isn't a precedent for absentee Duggars.

Wouldn't be surprised of they're delivering Jana to her new job. Could be them being nice parents (for once) or maybe they're going to give the people their rules for Jana.

Would they even let her travel alone?

[marmalade]

She was in Wisconsin with the family, so she was never alone. The bus was likely waiting for Boob and Mullet somewhere. They probably took Smuggar's Hummer to make less of a spectacle (not that his obnoxiously bumper-stickered rear window and AR plates don't give that vehicle away).

[SayNoToMullets]

I didn't see them - then again, I was at dance today, so obviously they'd be nowhere near all those defrauding leotards, and teh gheys. Plus I was in Edgewater - waaaay too close to Andersonville, with its feminist bookstores and its lesbians.

[Lady]

I was in Hinsdale. Fun thing, they were on Ogden Ave, or at least the people I thought were them. And it was in a big white van.

Someone should tweet the quizz to ass nugget. :lol:
