WBEZ just reported a BWW in Oswego had a similar incident to the one in Naperville, but didn’t report any details.

That letter Bob Dole sent to Wordslinger’s family was sweat and gentlemanly.

Concur. That’s what is so great about this community.
Good work by Elizabeth Austin and John Patterson. They are two solid folks, and doing this independently, wow.

This is the first time that local TV news reporting has ever had a positive impact.

How about the Illini (the football team)? I have to confess that prior to the Wisconsin game, I was on the bandwagon to fire Lovie. I have done a 180. They may not be ready for Alabama, but they are playing well and the defense is entertaining.

Good job on the veto JB.

@JoanP - That’s some funny stuff. US Senate candidates throwing down in the parking lot!

A season of high hopes has crashed to the ground for the Chicago Bears, being in last place right now.

I’ll say it’s owed. How in the heck can it be that this money went uncollected? It is outrageous. I worked for a business that went through a sales tax audit and they scrounged around in the books for several months to come up with about $13,000 owed by an enterprise with about 3 million in annual revenue, but they let 50 million go uncollected. Ridiculous. But sadly not that surprising.

glad JB not letting go unchallenged

If anyone needs to know the reason SIUC’s enrollment is dropping faster than the Bears chances of winning the SuperBowl this year, I refer you to today’s edition of the Southern.
- JoanP - Monday, Nov 4, 19 @ 8:31 pm:
Thanks, Bigtwich, I don’t know what happened there. Finger slip or something.

Wasn’t this Monica Bristow’s bill?

The other day I spotted none other than Ken Dunkin outside of City Hall surrounded by several gentlemen. Really wanted to say something but I didnt.
