This animal impersonated himself as a attorney and business investor consultant to win trust of adolescents. Out of all people, the gov lets him home? It's sad but the streets of Lake Forest are now dangerous. How can I petition? WTF! - How do people similar to Bernaldo Bicoy - who is a twice convicted child sex offender get bail?

It’s sad but the streets of Lake Forest are now dangerous. How can I petition?

I really think she beat herself. Mike did do well especially for being an unknown.

That’s the story of this election. Maybe the word is getting out slow that Robins is THE only candidate with a spine against the ravages of illegal aliens in Elgin. He’s got more work to do. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hello, all, it's been a year, how time goes by so fast! I will start looking at this entire matter again, and let you know when spring starts. This next election will have a new look at topics and our progress in the city.

No, not the death of the buffalo. That was a mere sideshow to the real tragedy. The real tragedy was the City of Elgin not contacting LF immediately and directly upon the event of the buffalo's death! "… typical Elgin?" Most certainly her ego was badly bruised. Evidently, LF thinks she has acquired an exalted status with regards to Lord's Park and should be accorded special treatment. Queen of Lord's Park; how's that grab you? No, I don't blame the City of Elgin at all for this alleged tragedy. Sue Olafson, speaking for the City, put it best: "the city doesn't have protocol for announcing the death of a zoo animal." That ain't BS. Maybe the city council can occupy their time by discussing protocol regarding announcement of dead zoo animals! Demonstrate some real interest, goodwill, commitment, and leadership, LF. Get your Friends of the zoo group (if they haven't all been co-opted by the commune-ity garden brigade) in association with your corporate sponsors, go buy a buffalo calf and donate it to the City of Elgin. And given that the zoo belongs to the City of Elgin, you might want to try establishing a good working relationship with the City rather than publicly disparaging the City to the media, assuming you still want, need or expect City cooperation in the future!

You can even bring your dog, too! They have GREAT hearing so you can ask your dog what you missed. Thank God the sewers have been seperated at the Fox Theater.

I very seldom am willing to pay theater prices for a movie that most likely won't be good enough to keep me awake. I do not make a scene at a movie. The last movie I saw was Blind Side. It was very good and kept me awake. That was not me at the movies. I very seldom am willing to pay theater prices for a movie that most likely won’t be good enough to keep me awake.
