Sinkhole......What is it day 42, 43, 44 ????

So I ran out of smokes this morning and had to run to the local 7-11 to grab a pack and get a cup of Joe and what do I come across on my way there? Its the Freaking sinkhole on Lee street that was supposed to be finished after two weeks. I guess after they found the bridge under the pavement they must have found a troll below the pavement also...

Sinkhole, WTF

The following will be posted in the Wednesday print edition of the Des Plaines Journal

Lee Street near Rand and River in Des Plaines was closed Monday as workers continued repairing a caved-in portion of sidewalk and sewer lines underneath. A concrete bridge was discovered under the walkway, probably dating back to the turn of the century. See Wednesday's print editions of the Journal for more. (Tom Robb/The Journal)

Does anyone know what is underneath the sidewalks, roads, etc. in Des Plaines? Well I got an idea why don't they just build another condo or empty strip mall instead.

writers block

I have been more of a caption writer than I have been writing anything in this blog. Still haven't received my camera but been tracking it and should be getting it tomorrow. Been busy (luckily) as usual at work and regardless I made myself a promise to do a little more writing beside the usual things I post. So with the idea of writers block I'm posting the above picture to go with this.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter To All!

This is only supposed to be a joke but ?

Warning !!!!

Just a warning that I should have my new camera by next week......}--

Devil made me do it

Ok a bad joke and quick video
Picture it: rural area, Sunday morning, church is packed and the devil decides to pay a visit.

The doors burst open, and a rolling black cloud rolls in with the devil in its midst. People jump out of the pews and run outdoors, screaming - all except for two. One is the Pastor, the other is an elderly farmer.

Satan is a bit perplexed. He points to the Pastor and says, "You! I can understand why you didn't run away, you are in your Lord's house, you preach against me everyday and you aren't afraid of me. But YOU (points to the farmer), why didn't you run out scared like everyone else?"

The farmer crosses one leg over the other and drawls, "Why, I'm surprised you don't recognize me...I've been married to your sister for 36 years!"

Cost Of Healthcare

Keep on raising the cost of of prescription medicine and see what happens.

Baseball in April

There is nothing like April baseball in Chicago!

Just Saying

I am a Democrat because I believe a healthy economy depends on good jobs at good wages. So fork 'em over, you fat bastard boss man.

Caught in the act?

I saw this the other day and was thinking to myself if that person was saying to them self "I'm Lovin' it" ?

Can this happen here?

I know this video has made its rounds around the internet but I don't think this would happen here but in a strange way I think it would be kinda cool if it did.
