Kean won by a landslide. I love Kean. You may pay a few cents more a gallon, but when its -10 out there, I rather pay a little more and give the kid a tip then risk frostbite!
New poll - Olympics. I decided to make it multiple choice as it really is more than a yes and no answer.

city of chicago was passing out ticket today around st john fisher..i got a 50 dollor ticket for parking the wrong way i was unloading my truck when i came out i had a ticket alot of people got ticket talman washtenaw and fairfield..this was the second time this week that revenue was down my street i going to the ward office
There are drugs being sold on every corner in the ghetto’s and Daley has the Police writing tickets for petty nonsense like parking the wrong way?
These tickets are just one more method to extort money from the hard working people that pay the taxes in Chicago. In the summer, they put up street cleaning signs every few houses late in the day and ticket your vehicle in the morning before you know they’re even there. If you work afternoons, you lose, if you’re home sick, you lose, if you're anywhere at all except home every single night, you lose.
If Ginger Rugai cared about her constituents, she could easily deliver a schedule to everyone in the 19th Ward to allow people to mark their calendars so they’d know when to move their cars and avoid a fine. But I suppose the Aldermen couldn’t vote themselves a nice raise when they want it if the revenues were down……could they? Seeing as we can’t depend on Rugai or our precinct captains, it’s up to us to stick together and take a minute to knock on our neighbors doors and remind them to move their vehicles when these signs are posted……….that’s what good neighbors do.
It's high time that these phony politicians get reminded that we don’t work for them, THEY WORK FOR US!. I’d love to see the citizens of Chicago rise up and launch "Monkey Warfare" on this City. They could start with these traffic camera’s and new parking meters. In a matter of hours, every camera could be put out of commission and every coin slot on these meters downtown could be "crazy glued & washered." That would take a bite out of their PROFITS.
I wonder how many times Daley's corrupt “split the profits” private partners would replace those camera’s and meter heads before they figured out that we've had enough of being on the receiving end of their abuse and went somewhere else. Maybe they’d just slither back under the rocks from whence they came.
Jimmy Boy,
Since you do not know what you are talking about I will informa you. The people writing those tickets are not the police so stop trying to put the blame on hard worker understaffed PO's. They are being written by the department of revenue.
By the way, I do not give a damn who is writting the ticket or not, park leagally and you will have nothing to worry about.
if they are going to write ticket write them all over the city ..write the ticket on west,southeast,east side.not in the area were they willnot be shot at.

In the middle
of the concrete heat
boys manning our
sneakered positions tarred
in the block's summer field
We hustled out
fates into shape
on the city's sweating face
in the lean, bouncing grace
of our broomstick, rubber ball game
bound by the sewers and parked cars
of our Outlaw Little League
While on the sidelines
dreaming in our cheers
the old men watched
bleachered on brownstone stoops
and iron fire escapes
making small book on the shadowy
skills of stickball stars
lost in the late-inning sun
of the stadiumed street's
priceless, makeshift diamond

60655,
A couple days ago I saw a young male african american riding a bicycle up and down the street of Mt. Greenwood who seemed to be checking out various cars in the neighborhood. I was very close to calling 911 to report this suspicious person when upon closer observation he had a reflrctive vest under an open coat and a City of Chicago Dept. of Revenue badge on writing tickets on cars without city stickers. He must of hit one of my neighbors but he failed to check close enough because they do have a valid sticker affixed. I guess the city knows our area will pay these tickets and give more $$$ to the residents in the Englewood Area and West Side who need their schlorships!
everyone should call the Alderman office today complanding about these ticket being pass out the number is 2388766. but call for a light out or a pot hole or any other services it take month to fix. do you think they went down ginger block writing ticket???
Mter maids they are the scum of the earth. They only prey on our neighborhood as well as the west end of garfield ridge. They prey on the working class. They fear going into their own neighborhoods and writting tickets. I said their own because they are like 100 percent african american. The city wont hire a white guy for that job I guess. Its all female african american (i love that made up word that makes no sense ) They wrote my mother whole block in garfield ridge for city stickers because the elderly people didnt wipe the snow off their windsheilds! They wrote em all. Dispute if it...so much fun dealing with the angry city worker at city hall looking for revenue.

Would someone please give this poster a grammar and spelling lesson?

Everyone wants the law upheld, until it inconvieniences them..then It's why don't the police do this or mess with them....now the "there are murderers & dope dealer" excuses come out..i love it..it's funny cause when you do stop the dope dealer, he's also complaining about the "more serious crimes out there" and why you messin with me? there's a simple solution, park the right way & guess what - no ticket....
They need to write tickets in white neighborhoods, because they need people who will actually pay..
