Drunk & locked myself out of my place. Cops come by. Ask me what happened. I tell them. Cop asked me if I would get my security deposit back. Confused I said No.Cop proceeds kick the door open. Ripping it off the hinges. Then they just walk away.
Hey Mister in big work truck that flipped me off. I wasn’t yelling at you for blowing the STOP sign in Loop. I was trying to get your attention to the box on top of the truck. Anybody need sunglasses safety glasses. I got a box of them.

Can we all agree a short term thing that can be done to make Chicago a better place would be closing all of these roads to car traffic. It can be done tomorrow. Give park land back to people
Well, considering Illinois car owners pay less than half of what it costs to build & maintain roads & us bicycling non car owners are actually
Subsidizing YOU. That’s not counting all the free street parking you get. Pay your fair share.

NOT SAFE: The new bike lanes on Belmont Avenue in Chicago are a complete disaster. They are unsafe for cars, pedestrians, & bikes at a cost of millions of dollars. They created more traffic by making Belmont one lane. They encourage bikes to pass on the right which is completely
