My condolences to John's family. Very thankful for the work he did and glad we got to share, at least a little, in the joy he brought to the game.
The fun thing about Bitcoin is if/when someone steals it all from you, you have zero recourse. And no currency based on banks ransoming off North...
[IMG] The best map I could find of the location of red light cameras in Chicago. I'm not sure this is a picture that shows red light cameras...
The current research has found ways to normalize this - here's a study that compares fatal crash rates in cities with red light cameras to those...
Traffic deaths in Chicago in 2020 were the highest they've been in over a decade - that's coming off of a significant decrease in 2019. That's...
I hope that public pension funds don't get hurt too much by this. P.S. Day trading is not smart
This is what I've heard - "the media" obviously doesn't like the way he belittles and actively discourages the free press ... but Trump himself,...
It's basically a ghost town now. You can buy a decentish, well-maintained, but old house there (last time I checked I don't think there had been...
I know you dig hiking - the Paul Douglas trail is my absolute favorite hike anywhere in Chicagoland. It's not a super long hike but the amount you...
Cairo is one of my favorite places on planet Earth, truly. I try to get there about once a year to get Shemwell's barbecue sauce. When I was there...
In order to have crime you have to have people that live there and Gary is basically empty now. Large areas of the downtown, east side, and south...
If you mean it - and if you're willing to live there for 5 years and fix up the house, Gary will sell you a house for a dollar. I haven't heard...
I like Gary, a lot. The Paul Douglas Trail is my absolute favorite hike in Chicagoland, Bellaboo's is my favorite children's museum anywhere. My...
It would be a lot easier to sell Trump as a fascist if he started a war with Denmark over Greenland. Trump strikes me as much more an aspiring...
You've got an optimism that I think is very admirable. I wish I thought the problems you mention were as easily fixed.
In my experience this sort of stuff weighs heavily on inmates' minds. No one wants to be locked up but knowing they're being released into a job...
It's amazing the kind of stuff you can buy when you haven't spend trillions of dollars on global war. If you want to expand that to "what could we...
I firmly believe kids are the only chance we have out of an environmental catastrophe. Our only hope comes from technological change - I don't...
I hear your frustration and honor it - the line of reasoning you're approaching this with is getting dangerously close to MAGA economics in my...
Tone seems off to me. Feels like it boils down to "the government makes bad decisions - therefore, the planet deserves to die." Ehh, maybe we...
I don't think Pelosi's bad. For as much as the Right makes her out to be a Stalinist nutball or something she seems to be very level-headed and...
That's a pretty tough act to do. Some poets and saints manage to pull it off.

It is, and it's poorly defined, which is one reason why I think some people think it doesn't involve being a steward for the health of others ....
Do you think you should have the right to carry a deadly virus, go wherever you want, do whatever you want, without any sort of personal or social...
