Question of the day
Friday, Apr 12, 2013 - Posted by Rich Miller * A Facebook photo taken during Gov. Pat Quinn’s recent trade mission to Mexico… * The Question: Caption? I am fully aware how difficult it will be to keep it clean, but you must keep it clean. And write your posts in English as well. I don’t wanna be using Google Translate all darned day to make sure you’re following directions. Again, keep it clean.
