Yuri Rasovsky had a very funny routine, often broadcast on WFMT's "Midnight Special" program, where he says Chicago street names using the accents of particular neighbourhoods.

I know a slightly off-color joke about Chicago street names. I'm far too straight-laced to tell it, but the punchline is "Regina, Malvina, Paulina --- and Lunt".
