What Ever Happened To The Neighborhood Knife Sharpener?



I was preparing my food for dinner last night when I realized my knife was very dull. I pulled out my knife sharpener and had a flashback from my youth. I know the sharpener did do the job and did sharpen my knife, but not even close to the way knives and scissors used to be sharpened. The best knife sharpener was the neighborhood man, who used to walk around with his cart sharpening knives all day long did. I have talked to quite a few folks and it seems like everyone had at least one sharpener in their neighborhood. So I ask, whatever happened to these neighborhood icons?

It looks like they might actually do something about it now. Check out the link to the story below from the Des Plaines Journal.

Neighbors Of The Year Apologize



Neighbors of the year apologize and I don't buy it. The freaking ahole neighbors who taunted a dying 9-year old apologized and I believe they only did it because they were in fear for their own safety. The only thing I can say is Thank God for all the other good people out there that did showed up to support this little girl.

Illinois Misses The Deadline For Mailing Absentee Ballots To The Military


WLS-AM 890

I read this story on the website for WLS about Illinois missing the deadline for mailing absentee ballots to the members of the military. I just have to say another reason to say Illinois is making us all proud about the state all over again.


By Adam Zielinski

CHICAGO (WLS) - The U.S. Justice Department is investigating whether the state of Illinois missed the deadline for mailing absentee ballots to members of the military and other overseas American voters as part of a new federal overseas voting law.

Cris Cray, Director of Legislation at the Illinois State Board of Elections, says not all of Illinois' 110 jurisdictions were compliant with the 2009 Military and Overseas Voter Empowerment Act (MOVE).

The law requires every state to mail their absentee ballots 45 days prior to Election Day to overseas troops, government employees and other Americans who want to vote from abroad.

Cray says she is currently compiling data from each of Illinois' jurisdictions to determine which were compliant and which were delinquent. Cray said it's possible the ballots may not be counted because the state was tardy in sending them out.

Illinois was required to have all of its absentee ballots mailed by Sept. 18, the national deadline. Election officials have until Nov. 16 to count the absentee ballots, which must be postmarked by midnight Nov. 1 to be eligible.

In an e-mail response, Justice Department spokeswoman Xochil Hinojosa confirmed that Illinois is being investigated for the absentee ballot infraction.

"The Department is working with all states, including Illinois, to investigate and remedy any problems that will prevent our men and women serving overseas from having the opportunity to vote and have their votes counted," Hinojosa said.

The Justice Department has brought a lawsuit against the state of New York after settling with New Mexico over a similar case of delinquent absentee ballots for overseas Americans.

Several New York counties including the five boroughs of New York City were found to be in violation of the deadline after the state was permitted by the Defense Department to move its deadline to Oct. 1 because the state's primary day was four days before the deadline.

The Justice Department settled a case with New Mexico Tuesday where six counties failed to mail ballots by the deadline.

Overseas ballots could be a deciding factor in Illinois' mid-term elections where recent polls show a tight U.S. Senate race between Republican Mark Kirk and Democrat Alexi Giannoulias. Republican Bill Brady has an edge over Democratic incumbent Pat Quinn for governor.

Chicago Blackhawks Home Opener



Tonight is the Chicago Blackhawks home opener against the dreaded Dead Wings. All the experts say that the Blackhawks don't have a chance at repeating as the Stanley Cup Champions. I say this to everyone that if you asked anyone 3 years ago that the Blackhawks were going to be the Champs in such a short time then I would call them a liar or a psychic. On that note here's to another fun season and Go Hawks!

John Lennon Stand By Me



Tomorrow, Saturday October 9, 2010 John Lennon would have been 70 years old. I'm not saying that I was the greatest Beatles or John Lennon fan but I have to admit that he did stand up for what he believed in. I believe that if we all would stand up for what we believe in and did it in a peaceful way that we all would be better off.

For A Friend

No one knew the torment,
That you were going through;
We only kept on seeing
What we really wanted to.

We saw the outward smile,
But not your inner pain;
We never really dreamt,
That you would never smile again.

Forgive us if we failed to see,
What we could do to aid;
Or if we failed to comprehend,
How much you were afraid.

We pray your mental anguish,
Will now forever cease;
And that your deep anxieties,
Will be replaced by peace.

We know your pain invaded,
Every single thought you had;
It made you cry internally,
And deeply, deeply sad.

But we in turn remember,
The good times, not the bad;
We remember when you smiled at us,
And not when you were sad.

So when we think about your life,
We won’t dwell upon its close;
We’ll remember all the good times,
And forget about life’s blows.

We’ll remember all the happiness,
The joy and not the tears;
The assurance and the confidence,
And not irrational fears.

Our lives have all been better,
Because you have been there;
So now we leave your memory,
In God’s all-loving care.

(For Michael 1991-2010)
